Rich in historical sites, Virginia is also replete with haunted ones. Doomed soldiers, starving colonists, displaced natives, jilted lovers, and all manner of paranormal phenomena await visitors to the state — if they know where to look. In *Ghosthunting Virginia,* Michael Varhola leads readers on a guided tour of the Old Dominion’s spookiest spots. Colonial Williamsburg, a town where ghosts wander freely and the Wagon of Death still transports prisoners to the gallows; the Governor’s Mansion in Richmond, home to a friendly young female ghost; the Boardwalk at Virginia Beach, where it’s said that for every person, there are 30 ghosts; Yorktown and other Civil War battlefields, where long-dead soldiers still linger and battles yet rage. From haunted cemeteries to churches, plantations, and other equally fascinating spectral spots, this novel and informative travel guide gets them all, and it's also perfect late night reading for anyone who loves a good ghost story.
