Overview

The cemeteries of greater Cincinnati have had their share of hauntings, strange occurrences, and odd phenomena throughout history. Entombed within these pages are 22 stories of the dead and the strange—tales of those who have experienced for themselves the hauntingly beautiful burial grounds of Cincinnati, Ohio. Hold tight to your scarf or shawl as you follow the legend of the ghost who loves to steal items of clothing. Listen to famous lawyer Harvey Myers as he presents evidence to a jury…from beyond the grave. Walk a dog that died more than a hundred years ago, and meet the ghostly guard of Linden Grove Cemetery. Unearth a strange family secret involving two graveyards, and raise spirits by rubbing your hands together. Enjoy the mystical, weird, horrifying, and sometimes funny, stories from beyond the eternal curtain as you discover the haunted history behind Cincinnati’s most beloved internment grounds.
