About the author

Laura Cunningham writes local ghost-story and haunted-history books focused on Memphis, Tennessee, published by Arcadia and History Press. Haunted Memphis and its variant editions gather reported hauntings tied to the city's landmarks, including Elmwood Cemetery and Beale Street, weaving them together with the city's musical and social history. The Ghostly Tales of Memphis takes a lighter, more anecdotal approach aimed at general and younger readers, presenting local legends as entertainment rather than investigation. Cunningham's books sit within the regional ghost-lore genre, combining local history research with collected folklore and reported sightings, and are aimed at readers with an interest in Memphis history, Southern gothic tradition, or ghost stories generally rather than at students of paranormal research or occult practice.
