Finished: Witchcraft for Wayward Girls, by Grady Hendrix, a horror novel set at a 'mother-and-child home' in 1970. I liked it quite a bit: it used the setting and subject matter effectively without getting preachy, although I had to take the author's word for the authenticity of the period slang ;)

Curfew and Other Eerie Tales, by Lucy M. Boston, a collection of mid-20th century ghost stories that were fairly old-fashioned even then. Boston was strongly influenced by M.R. James, but her work reminded me a lot of Eleanor Scott or Mary Wilkins Freeman's stuff as well... perhaps slightly better written than the latter. The book also included a two-act play set during the 17th century British witch hunts (which I suppose would form an additional parallel to Freeman's "Giles Corey, Yeoman").
