Animal Ghost Stories
Hardcover
(August House Dec. 14, 1995)
A doctor making a house call through a snowstorm to care for a young girl is guided by her dog, only to find that the dog was buried the month before. A ghostly herd of cattle reenacts a stampede on the anniversary of their slaughter. A cat pays a final visit to his mistress moments after his death. Werewolves, sea monsters, and other creatures round out this collection of ghostly tales. Using interviews with witnesses, first-person accounts, folklore archives, and printed sources, Nancy Roberts suggests in these varied stories that people do not have a monopoly on thinking and feeling.
