Haunted Fort Smith & Van Buren by Bud Steed Pdf

Outlaws, lawmen, soldiers and those on the Trail of Tears all passed through the Fort Smith and Van Buren area. Some of those restless spirits remain. Past residents of the "Hell on the Border" jail, which now serves as the visitor's center, make life interesting for employees. At the Clayton House, a ghostly man in a black suit attends weddings uninvited. Residents near the Fort Smith National Cemetery report eerie blue lights hovering over grave markers. A pipe smoker is seen walking the grounds at the Drennen-Scott House. A small girl in Victorian dress is often seen playing among the tombstones at Fairview Cemetery. Author Bud Steed delves into the spectral history of the Arkansas-Oklahoma border.

Haunted Histories in America by Nancy Hendricks Pdf

If you believe in ghosts, you're in good company. Haunted Histories brings America's most ghostly locales to life, illuminating their role in shaping U.S. history and detailing how they became the nation's most feared places. Haunted Histories takes readers on a state-by-state journey across the United States, exploring the nation's most feared places. Along the way, the text introduces readers to new ghostly tales and takes a fresh look at familiar stories and locations, with an eye to history. From well-known spooky spots like Salem, Massachusetts, to such lesser-known ones as the Shanghai Tunnels of Portland, Oregon, where spirits are supposedly trapped, readers will discover not only where America's most haunted places are but also why they are said to be haunted. The ghosts of the doomed Donner Party allow readers to experience the arduous and often deadly journey of America's westward wagon trains, while different kinds of "spirits" haunting old distilleries allow readers to discover how whiskey almost derailed the new American nation before it was born. This book can be studied for academic purposes as a historical reference, used as a source for classroom assignments, or simply read for the pleasure of a great story.

The Rise of the Gray Ghost by Michael Aye Pdf

Will Lee was a surgeon...the best. He was General Bragg's Confederate Army's chief surgeon, when a Union cannonball took off his right hand. For the next several years, Will tried to drown his misery in a bottle. A chance meeting with a one-armed ship's captain changed his life. A freed slave, one that he'd grown up with, carved Will a wooden hand. The skills Will had honed as a surgeon transferred to his ability with a deck of cards and a pistol. When a low-life kidnapped his best friend's wife and his brother's fiancé, Will took action. He soon became known as a man to handle any situation. It was The Rise of the Gray Ghost.
