Everyone loves a good ghost story, and here are eighteen set in various times and places throughout history, conjured up in the fertile imaginations of fantasy's and science fiction's finest ghost busters. From Vikings to Revolutionary War soldiers, from Civil War rebels who just wouldn't let the battle die to a specter bound by honor to seek vengeance at Iwo Jima, to individuals as diverse as Houdini, Hoffa, and Helen Keller, here are tales to frighten, mysteries to solve, provocative stories where long-dead past meets the living present. You'll find malevolent spirits, tormented souls, capricious ghosts, legions of otherworldly beings who will have you treading cautiously the next time you venture to your favorite historical sites.
