Just in time for Halloween: 'Haunted Watauga County'

Looking for some spooky stories? Winston-Salem author Tim Bullard's new book, "Haunted Watauga County, North Carolina," includes tales of a spirit who leaves the scent of pipe tobacco, a hanged Tory captain who rides his steed along Riddle's Knob and a haunted spring near the Watauga River.

Bullard will give a reading from the collection 2 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 16, at Charlotte's Park Road Books, 4139 Park Road.
