Murders Most Ghostly

Stories about ghosts have been popular for well over 2,000 years. The most difficult task is finding tales that are linked to real events. Curt Dalton has plucked from the files of the paranormal twelve incredible, but true, incidences of murders in the United States that involved ghosts. These tales of woe include: - A murderer haunted by his victim to the point where he finally confessed to killing her
- The spirit who, for over half a century, continued to walk from the jail to where he was hanged
- A house haunted by a ghost, which led to the discovery of its body hidden in the basement
- The shrill cries of a woman's voice heard calling out her murderer's name over his grave
- The mother whose testimony of seeing her daughter's ghost led to the conviction of her son-in-law for murder
... and more tales of violence and homicide involving ghosts from across the United States. Illustrated with portraits, broadsides, drawings and photographs from scenes of the crimes, Murder's Most Ghostly gives a glimpse into horrifying homicides from the 19th century whose endings extended beyond the grave.
