Summary

An old story was once retold perhaps two generations ago by Jeanne deLavigne in her book Ghost Stories of Old New Orleans. I think enough time has passed to retell this eerie legend again –Today’s tale is Lost Golden Children. Even after an aged cemetery is removed for development, a stingy ghost returned to search for something he lost. You can read more ghost stories of New Orleans, get directions to cemeteries, and take a ghostly walking tour of haunted places there in my book,  Ghost Stories and Folk Tales of New Orleans. It’s a must-have if you’re heading out to NOLA or if you just enjoy the ghostly tales surrounding the city. https://www.amazon.com/Ghost-Stories-Folk.../dp/1940087465

Strange Stories From a Chinese Studio, volume 1 by Songling Pu (1640 - 1715) LibriVox "Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio" (or "Strange Tales of Liaozhai") is a collection of nearly five hundred mostly supernatural tales written by Pu Songling during the early Qing Dynasty. It was written in Classical Chinese rather than Vernacular Chinese. Pu is believed to have completed the majority of the tales sometime in 1679, though he could have added entries as late as 1707. He borrows from a folk tradition of oral storytelling to put to paper a series of captivating, colorful stories, where the boundary between reality and the odd or fantastic is blurred. The cast of characters includes vixen spirits, ghosts, scholars, court officials, Taoist exorcists and beasts. Moral purposes are often inverted between humans and the supposedly degenerate ghosts or spirits, resulting in a satirical edge to some of the stories. Ghosts and spirits are often bold and trustworthy, while humans are on the other hand weak, indecisive and easily manipulated, reflecting the author's own disillusio OHMS Lounge Josh and Paul Welcome to OHMS Lounge!
