Sinopsis

Ghost stories from America's "Heart of Dixie" have never been so creepy, fun, and full of mystery!  Welcome to the spooky state of Alabama!   Stay alert! Ghosts lurk around every corner. Even the most unexpected places might be haunted by wandering phantoms.   Did you know that every February, a sunken ship rises again on the Tombigbee River? Or that the man peeking out of the Pickens County Courthouse window was wrongfully imprisoned there…150 years ago? Can you believe the sounds of a Civil War horse still echo on the porch of an old house in Suggsville?     Pulled right from history, these ghostly tales will change the way you see Alabama and have you sleeping with the light on!

    Norman read the first sentence of the letter again: The whole country round seems to be really greedy to hear the Word of God, many are deciding for Christ. As he read, he heard a clear voice inside his head say, That s where you are to go. A shiver ran down Norman s spine. He was positive God had just directed him to join C.T. Studd and his mission in the heart of Africa. That was where his life s work lay. As a boy at boarding school in Great Britain, Norman would never have guessed where his life s work would take him. After serving in World War I, he studied at Trinity College, Cambridge, where he played a key role in the beginnings of InterVarsity Fellowship. Following in the footsteps of C.T. Studd, Norman then answered God s call to join the Heart of Africa Mission in the Belgian Congo. A passionate yet humble evangelist, missionary, and teacher, Norman went on to lead the Worldwide Evangelistic Crusade (WEC) and helped found the Christian Literature Crusade. Pouring his heart into teaching the Bible and writing numerous books, he strengthened the faith of thousands.

    The Man Who Was Pale by Jack Sharkey first appeared in Fantastic Science Fiction Stories in December 1959. It begins quietly, on a moonlit night as a man recounts the strange visions that have haunted him since childhood—visions of another life he seems to live only in dreams. As his story unfolds, reality and illusion blur, creating a chilling sense that his dream-self might be more real than the waking world. Sharkey builds his unease gradually, through atmosphere and introspection rather than violence, exploring themes of duality, memory, and the thin veil separating worlds. The result is a story that lingers in the imagination long after it ends, more ghostly than gruesome, and deeply human beneath its mystery. 
    Jack Sharkey (1931–1992) was an American writer known for his wit, imagination, and versatility across science fiction, fantasy, and mystery. A frequent contributor to Fantastic, If, and Galaxy magazines, Sharkey’s stories often combined humor with a sly sense of irony. He was equally at home writing eerie speculative tales or lighthearted satire, bringing intelligence and empathy to both. Beyond short fiction, he wrote plays, mystery novels, and even stage adaptations, earning a devoted following for his deft storytelling and inventive twists. 
    Like many pulp-era authors, Sharkey captured the restless spirit of mid-century speculative fiction—a time when imagination pushed against the limits of reality. The Man Who Was Pale exemplifies his gift for weaving unease and wonder together, inviting readers to question not just what is real, but who they truly are when the lights go out.
