About the author
Ryan Jacobson writes regional ghost story collections for Adventure Publications, gathering reportedly true accounts of hauntings from specific U.S. states. Ghostly Tales of Michigan (revised, 2022) presents 27 stories, including accounts of a protective spirit and a nationally featured haunted site, while Minnesota Hauntings: Ghost Stories from the Land of 10,000 Lakes (revised, 2022) collects 21 tales tied to particular places, among them a reputedly haunted college and a hutch linked to several deaths. Both books work in the tradition of local oral history and campfire storytelling rather than fiction or occult instruction, organizing each state's lore into short, self-contained chapters. Jacobson's books suit readers with an interest in Midwestern folklore and site-specific ghost stories, and they sit alongside similar state-by-state hauntings titles from the same publisher.
