"Dare you not believe? Fist-sized stones, materializing out of nowhere, rain down on a terrified family...A fabled cradle, rocked by unseen hands, is witnesses by hundreds...A gigantic spectral hound stands guard over its long-dead master in the Blue Ridge foothills...The legendary "Moon Ghost" of Scottsville frighteningly taunts a family almost nightly for two years...The haunting "presences" of historic figures linger on at famous plantation mansions. These and many other examples of inexplicable psychic phenomena - more than 50 stories in all - are chronicled in "The ghosts of Charlottesville, Lynchburg and nearby environs." Are the accounts true? Skeptics may scoff, but a number of respected witnesses who have personally seen or otherwise experiences the manifestations of these spirits swear by them. Judge for yourself!" -- back cover.
