Haunted Beauty: Aesthetics and Mindfulness in the Traditional Ghost Story

You won’t want to miss presentation by Dr. Weldon as he shares his thoughts and insights on his new book about Traditional Ghost Stories, as the fall season is the best time to hear about ghosts! In this book, Weldon analyzes components of good ghost stories: sense and setting, time, place, nostalgia and mystery. He shares examples from authors Weldon considers masters of these stories. And the Museum will be decorated for Halloween, so the setting will be just right for some good discussion on ghost stories.
