Massachusetts; a New England state with a proud history and a vibrant culture. But there is more to this place than white church steeples and town greens. In the forests and meadows surrounding quaint, colonial towns lurk spine-chilling ghosts such as the specters of Freetown State Forest, rumored hermits, and shadowy creatures, all awaiting the next hiker to stumble down the trail... For years, tales of these mysterious beings and places existed only in whispers and campfire tales, but now for the first time these legends have been collected and retold in one volume: Spooky Trails and Tall Tales Massachusetts. Alongside each of these captivating tales is the necessary route and trailhead information brave readers will need to go beyond their town lines and test their nerve. With dozens of stories and hikes throughout, readers will discover and explore the forgotten histories of their hometowns.
