| Summary |
"A bloody soldier who disappears into thin air. Flickering orbs floating over a military cemetery. History is filled with brave fighters cut down in the heat of battle. But what if they aren't resting in peace? True Hauntings: Battlefield Ghosts revisits deadly clashes from the past and the ghosts they left behind, from a headless horseman galloping through the night to restless spirits rising from sunken ships, searching for revenge. In this second volume of haunted history, find out how true stories can be some of the most terrifying of all"-- Provided by publisher. |
