My mother and I are considering a trip to Savannah in the spring. Neither of us has ever been, but reading "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" has piqued my interest. Any recommendations for our trip? (historical, artsy, ghostly...)

The riverfront is a popular spot. That's the first thing that pops into my head. It's a variety of different shops in historic buildings along the ocean.

There are also lots of coastal islands down there that you can be taken to. I just found out that Tybee Island, one of the cloesest to Savannah, has the east coast's oldest lighthouse (possible ghosts inside).

Savannah's also very historic so you can find lots of forts and lots of cemetaries.

And finally, particularly spooky hotels.

Hope that helps. Enjoy.

Thanks!
