'GHOSTS FROM
THE COAST"
Ghosts have a good repre
sentation in the state of su
pernatural affairs under the
capable pen of Julian Bolick.
Only the privilege of hearing
the author relate the stories
himself would be a greater
treat than reading the collec
tion, “Ghosts from the
Coast,” now available from
the Chronicle office.
Mr. Bolick is versatile in
many fields—writing, sketch
ing, oil painting, landscape
gardening, and architecture
—but his expert characteriza
tion of the area dialects sur
passes them all.
The coastal area, speci
fied in the title, is the locale
for the related visits. That
area of South Carolina, rich
in history, seems to have had
its share of “characters,” so
why should their guardian
spirits not keep posterity in
formed of the goings-on of an
other era!

Everybody loves a mys
tery. Today’s crowded mod
ern homes offer no space for
ghosts to drag their chains,
swing luminous lanterns, or
walk sedately up and down
curving stairways. There-
fore, the haunted places are
always situated off the beat
en pathways. The double “ve
randahs”, huge ballrooms,
candle-lit hallways and secret
passageways provide the at
mosphere for the supernatu
ral. These things come into
reality as the reader visits
“The Suicide Room,” meets
the “Playful Terriers,” and
imagines he can hear the
“Mysterious Music at Prince
FrederickX*’ The spine ac
tually tingles over the “Blue
Coats and the Devil.”
Lovers of local tradition
feel that this type of folklore
te as much a part of South,
Carolina as the state’s ex
ploits of colonization, her rep
utation for individuality, or
her great citizenry. We “•are
grateful to the author for
serving as guardi^p of these
thrilling and tragic memories
in a readable style.
After reading Mr. Bolick’s
latest book, we agree that not
all skeletons or ghosts should
be confined to family closets.
With the publication of the
third collection of tall tales,
we should not be surprised to
learn that the author might
he contemplating some such
organization as “Ghosts Un
limited.
Interesting features accom
panying the twelve stories in
“Ghosts from the Coast” in

Elizabeth Boatwright Cooper,
