Witches and Ghosts, Pirates and Thieves, Murder and Mayhem

Colonial Williamsburg's popular evening programs, "Cry Witch" and "Legends, Myths, Mysteries, and Ghosts," come alive in these scary stories from the 18th century.

Here are the stories of a farmer whose hitchhiker turns out to be a deadly spirit; of a young woman buried alive; of a finger detached from its body but still able to point to that person's murderer; of a man and woman whose love outlasted their lives, of a groom whose brides never survived the wedding night; of a ship and its crew forever frozen in an icy hell. These spooky tales were actually told in colonial America. Learn what amused and frightened Virginians more than two hundred years ago. Read them—if you dare!

Compiled by the late John Hunter, author of Red Thunder and Link to the Past, Bridge to the Future. Paperback.160 pages.
