Eugene & the Haunted Train Bridge - Paperback

by John William McMullen (Author)

Set in 1981 during the last week of summer vacation, Eugene Thomas dares Lambert McChesney and his adolescent peers to walk across the alleged haunted railroad bridge in the middle of the night. Reagan was President and the threat of nuclear war and the proverbial doomsday scenario hung over every American's head. Yet with imminent death just a push of a button away, the thought of walking across the alleged haunted railroad bridge in the middle of the night seemed even more ominous to adolescent boys. Lambert McChesney and his cohorts were embarking upon adolescence when Reagan was king and God was in his heaven and all was well with the world. So it seemed and so they believed.
