Most unique cookbook
This is an excellent coffee table book for Halloween, perfect for the paranormal or ghost enthusiast. Amy includes the historical facts of each of these haunted locations, along with a recipe, that was either served and or is still on the menu today. A section of the book, Amy lists the types of paranormal equipment that can be used during an investigation, along with the different types of paranormal experiences you may encounter. Amy shares her own personal experiences of each of these famous haunted locations which makes this book a good read. At the end of the book, Amy offers up several themed feasts, there’s something for everyone. For the history buff, a civil war feast & a turn of a century gala. For the more macabre, there is a blood curdling brunch & a last meal. I highly recommend this book. The photography is beautiful, one you will proudly display. Your guest will thoroughly enjoy thumbing through and reading the many stories within.

All the Haunts
This is a beautiful book in all aspects! The front cover immediately drew me in and I wasn’t disappointed. I love the history and legends of haunted places and adding recipes to accompany the stories is brilliant! It is beautifully written. I picked up a second copy because I wanted one to display in my cocktail cabinet and one to use in making the recipes. Amy Bruni fans, this is a must-have, and if you are new to her work this book will get you hooked! This book is the perfect gift for friends and family who love haunted history and love cookbooks.
