Haunted Galveston

Death has defined the Island. Horrific, costly, spiraling and surprising death. Yellow Fever. The Civil War. Ravaging fires. Hurricanes. Tragic and unexpected. Yet Galveston is not a household name like other ghost towns such as New Orleans, a fact which makes the Island's extreme paranormal context that much more unique. Perhaps more than any other American city, Galveston is both literally and figuratively haunted by its past - the devastation of events rattle like chains in the attic - a constant, steady, and invisible force beyond which life struggles. Come inside and explore Galveston's historic - and haunted - past. In the pages of this book, you will find tales of... • Matilda, the spirit who haunts the city's beloved Broadway mansion, Ashton Villa... • The Tremont Hotel, where guests and employees alike report unexplainable events... • Galveston's haunted ruins, Stewart's Mansion... • ...and the elegant Galvez, where ghostly happenings are pervasive throughout the hotel. You'll read about these hauntings, and many, many more in Haunted Galveston!
