Recipes and history from haunted American places

Amy Bruni pairs nearly 60 locations associated with hauntings—from hotels and homes to hospitals, prisons, and ghost towns—with a recipe linked to each place or its history. Vintage photographs and food images accompany the stories, giving the collection two points of entry: regional and paranormal lore, and dishes inspired by the people and settings featured. Examples range from Missouri State Penitentiary fried chicken to cornbread connected with the Villisca Axe Murder House. The book sits at the intersection of a themed cookbook and a collection of historical paranormal stories, with place-specific recipes shaping its structure.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Home cooks interested in themed or conversation-starting recipes
  • Readers curious about haunted locations and paranormal stories rooted in history
  • Fans of cookbooks that combine recipes with photographs and place-based storytelling
