An entire city haunted by century-old ghosts.
In 1900, the city of Galveston was flourishing. With saloons, mansions, and even an opera house, the Texan island was known as "The Queen City of the Gulf...until heavy rains flooded the streets,putting the entire town under water and killing a third of the inhabitants.
When the tragedy was over, the island was eventually rebuilt...but many of the dead were not ready to leave the place they called 'home. Locals, as well as visitors, still speak about the uncarthly situations they've personally experienced, especially at the Walmart that replaced the St. Mary's Orphan Asylum.
"Galveston Ghost Tales" is a compendium of the eeriest stories from this haunted city. A photo of a little girl who wasn't there. The spirit of a nun that roams the aisles. The sound of a child crying. With firsthand accounts from those who have seen these things and more themselves, this book will fill your mind with shadowy figures.
Whether you already believe in ghosts or are still a skeptic, "Galveston Ghost Tales" will haunt your dreams all night long.
Grab a flashlight, snuggle under the sheets, and turn the pages! But take care. Chances are. you won't be sleeping tonight.
