More fascinating and chilling stories from the author of
the popular Echoes of Valor. Mostly Civil War-era ghosts, although not quite all
are soldiers. A notable exception is the apparition of the Grim Reaper seen at Hamburger
Hill in Vietnam. The mischievous "Virgil"--the youngest member of the 116th
Pennsylvania Volunteers who showed up at a witness's door one evening with five other
long-dead Union soldiers. Two 1860s ghost children taken to the light by their ghostly
governess. The one I can't shake is the story of the woman at Ft. McAllister who
complained about her children being terrified by an unusually gory
"re-enactment"--a headless officer, flopping helplessly as his blood fountained
from the stump of his neck. |
