Haunted Portland

by Roxie J. Zwicker

You'll discover such haunting yarns as the story of Lydia Carver-the 'ghost bride' who drowned just offshore on the eve of her marriage- as well as the tale of the British captain and the American commander whose ghosts square off at nighttime in a famous local cemetery, a chilling reenactment of their fatal War of 1812 naval engagement.
