Shue House
(Greenbriar)
The Greenbriar Ghost is the only known case that a spirit helped convict a murderer. The ghost of Zona Shue, who lived in Greenbriar with her husband Edward in the late 1890�s. On January 23,1897 her body was found on the floor of her kitchen. The local Doctor said she most likely died of a condition known as Everlasting Faint. Zona�s ghost had appeared four times before her mother, to claim her husband a murder. She was beaten for not having what he wanted for dinner. The mother informed the police and Zona�s body was exhumed for an autopsy, which she had died from several injuries due to a severe beating. Zona�s husband was convicted and sent to prison where he later died. (Hopefully from a severe beating) |
Harpers Ferry
(Harpers Ferry National Park)
The ghost of John Brown walks with his dog down the street to the fire house, then they disappear. And at St. Peter's Catholic Church, up on the hill, a ghost of a priest disappears through a wall on the right side of the church. The front steps of the church are also said to be haunted by a baby that was said to have been killed in the Civil War. Its cries are still heard on the steps. These are just a few accounts of the hauntings in Harpers Ferry |
