A terrific group of personal finance bloggers got together to write about the current real estate and mortgage crisis. The result was a collection of great articles that I've linked to below. And if you were ever curious where the phrase--things that go bump in the night--came from, make sure you read to the end of the post.

"Things that go bump in the night" came from a Scottish prayer:
From ghoulies and ghosties
And long-leggedy beasties
And things that go bump in the night,
Good Lord, deliver us!
And I'd say that's a good prayer for the real estate market right now.
