Join author Kala Ambrose on a paranormal investigation to discover the creepiest corners of the Tar Heel State. Read the author's account of her visit to each site, and learn about its history-as well as the ghosts said to reside there. Then grab your gear and hit the road as you visit each location first-hand. Every entry comes with an address and website, plus photographs of these unforgettable destinations. Kala's tips and suggestions allow you to maximize the enjoyment of each experience.
From Ocracoke Island's swaggering spirit (which might be the ghost of infamous pirate Blackbeard) to Civil War apparitions at Fort Fisher to Asheville's Grove Park Inn, where the "Pink Lady" roams the halls, this book presents eerie hideaways that even lifelong residents might not know about. Part travel guide and part armchair reader, Ghost Hunting North Carolina puts you in the middle of the state's haunted history.
Each entry includes
- historical overview of the haunted place
- ghost stories associated with the location
- advice on visiting-if you dare
