Most of them can be visited by readers for their own experiences.This book is divided into geograpic regions in Washington and Oregon, including the Puget Sound, the Coast, and east and west of the Cascade Mountains. In addition to ghost stories, there are several stories about "Strange Critters" like the Bigfoot and "Sea Critters" that have been seen in the Pacific Northwest.At the end of the book is a section on ghost hunting, where the author describes natural phenomenon that can be mistaken for hauntings.
