I know some folks that have done some ghost hunting at Gettysburg and had some interesting results. My wife and I delve into the paranormal stuff.
We lived in a home that was built in the 1920's that had some activity. We had one of the local ghost hunter groups come out and check it out. Their psychic communicated with them and got the name of one of them...a little girl that we had seen on occasion playing in our stairwell. Several months later, when were moving out (we were renting), we found a handprint in the cement from when the garage was built...now keep in mind, we had never noticed this. The entire time we lived there, this handprint was covered by boxes. Underneath the handprint was this girl's name.

The grounds of civil war battlefields...including some of the bloodiest like Gettysburg and Antietam....are supposed to be some of the most haunted places in America. This is where my love of war history meets my love of paranormal junk :) -----Original Message----- > From: Scott Stroz [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, April 08, 2010 9:21 AM > To: cf-community > Subject: Re: Obama approves assassination of American citizen > > > Yea - Antietam is not far and Harper's Ferry (some say John Brown's > raid on Harper's Ferry was the 'unofficial' start of the Civil War) is > the next town over. > > Also, the town I live in has some colonial history as well.
