Oregon's Ghosts and Monsters
  In Wallowa County they talk about a monster "as long as a rowboat" with "a head like a hog's head" and "eyes about 14 inches apart" who lives in Wallowa Lake. Near Albany, a tall shaggy creature rises from a swamp and lopes down the road beside a mint truck. In the attic of a lovely old house on Heceta Head just above the pounding Pacific, an old lady in an old-fashioned dress, floats, legless, toward a terrified workman.
There are ghosts and monsters in Oregon, and this is a collection of stories about them.
