Product Description
Take a spine-tingling journey with author Docia Williams as she introduces you to the ghosts that roam the warm beaches of Port Aransas and South Padre Island. You may want to keep the night light on as she investigates the mysterious hauntings of La Bahia at Goliad, the Golden Triangle, and the presidios of far South Texas. Using tangible evidence and first-hand testimony, Williams attempts to validate some of the bizarre and disturbing accounts of ghosts along the Texas coast.

 Ghost of Texas Coast August 7, 2008
A Good collection of stories, but a bit boring, I've read 100's of paranormal/ghst/haunting books, and this one just couldnt keep my attention
 HIGHLY ENJOYABLE April 10, 2003

A well-researched collection of ghost stories, ranging from the
beginning of Texas history through the late 1880s-early 1990s. Unlike a lot of writers on this topic, Docia Shultz Williams makes the effort to conduct interviews, and do research, rather than (for the most part) rely on "this happened to a friend of a friend of a friend"-type recollections. Most of the recent stories claim to be first-hand accounts, and the rather substantive bibliography at the back shows actual research and investigation was done. Further, the author shows admirable restraint in not embellishing the stories told her with extra "spooky" details to punch them up, which makes the stories themselves more believable. Very entertaining, especially if you are familiar with this part of Texas.

Ghosts along the Texas Coast is a fun and mystical tribute to unexplained phenomenon in Texas. As a native Texan, I heard many of these stories growing up, and to read the book brought back those eerie feelings I had as a child, at the same time decreasing my skepticism and leaving me wondering."How do you explain that?!"
Excellent Reading! August 7, 2000

Docia does a great job of recreating old Texas ghost stories as well as modern ones. Informative as well as entertaining.

Great book. As good as the rest of her ghost books. I love a good ghost story and this book is filled with them.
