Haunted Places!

I have visited many Civil War Battlefields in my 66 years and have experienced sounds i.e. gunfire. cannons, bugles, cold spots, cheering, shouts and apparitions, mists etc. The spirit world exists! Upon receiving this book of which I had a copy years ago I reread it from cover to cover in a short time. It still keeps me captivated. I have added this book to my large collection of paranormal books. I recommend this book to anyone interested in the supernatural and those on the fence wondering if there is fact to all the stories.

Ghosts and the American Civil War

When you think of the American Civil War many things pop into your mind. Trains, trenches, slavery and ghosts. Ghosts roam the landscape of the battle fields like fish roam the oceans. Of course, on such battle fields like those found in Manassas, Petersburg and Gettysburg, you will very likely run into a soldier who refuses to stay down, even after death. Many of the chapters, like the one on Chatham, deal with a ghost who died before the Civil War. But Chatham was used as the HQs for the Union during the first Battle of Fredericksburg. Therefore, it was a Haunted Place of the Civil War. Half the book seems to focus on Washington, DC, where you can't swing a cat without hitting a ghost. Daniel Sickles, Mary Surratt and William H. Seward are said to all roam the streets of the Capital. From John Brown to Abraham Lincoln there are tons of ghosts, from before, during, and after War that roam our streets. Try not to stare.
