Cape Encounters
Contemporary Cape Cod Ghost Stories
In this fascinating collection, residents of Cape Cod share stories about ghosts who descend
staircases that no longer exist, kiss sleeping women, flip theater seats,
fold laundry, and join musicians onstage. While seeking out only the
mysterious, the authors instead met intelligent, thoughtful individuals
who related their stories with humor and insight.
What these
ordinary Cape
Codders
have to say may challenge your notions of haunted
houses. Whether you're amused or comforted, puzzled or
disturbed by these stories, they are above all thought-provoking and
entertaining. They also capture the unique charm of the Cape—a
combination of tradition, natural beauty, maritime lore.
. . and mystery. Enter the Cape's
historic, soulful homes and discover a world in which the past is very
much alive.

“A well-crafted book, this should be in your
home library for ghost-reference material.”
Ghost Magazine, Fall 2004
“…a charming and thoughtful collection…one
comes away with a feeling that the dead and living are just going about
their daily business, sharing common ground, from town halls to
centuries-old homes.”
Lawrence
Brown, Columnist, Cape Cod Times

of stories, some spooky, all interesting, and some unexpectedly
touching.”

A Card Game of Cape Cod Folklore
Gather around the campfire with this game of
strategy using Cape Cod’s spookiest entities as pawns—altogether 52 of
the peninsula’s scariest and most famous pirates, ghosts, witches, and
indigenous spirits, calling upon their mastery of nature to defeat your
opponent(s). Boldness, skill, and timing are needed to enter a
mysterious realm populated by a host of weird creature drawn from the Cape’s eerie legends, history, and lore.
More than another mysterious, family
card game, the lore and history of the Cape
are spelled out for children to learn about the different folkloric
characters and legends of the sandy peninsula. They’ll become familiar
with Old Stormalong, Maushop
and other “tall tales” that have been passed down over generations.
Just as Paul Bunyan was a symbol of
the Northwest (lumberman), waterbeings,
mermaids, one-eyed witches, spirit lights, phantom pirates, and bearded
sea serpents are among the fabled cast of symbols from Cape Cod’s rich tradition of storytelling.
This one-of-a-kind card game is the
result of a collaboration between the authors
of Cape Encounters: Contemporary
Cape Cod Ghost Stories and talented Osterville illustrator Ethan Renoe.
