About the author
Kate Mikoley is the author of American Ghosts, published by Enslow Publishing in 2019 and listed here in two catalogue entries. The book surveys the place of ghosts in American culture, tracing how stories told around campfires and depicted in movies, books, and television have shaped popular belief and fascination with the supernatural, regardless of whether readers take the stories as literally true. Consistent with Enslow's educational publishing list, the book is pitched at a younger or general-interest readership seeking an accessible overview of ghost lore rather than a scholarly or investigative treatment of paranormal claims. No additional biographical information about Mikoley accompanies the listing, so this description reflects only the scope and approach of American Ghosts as described in its publisher's blurb.
