When the Ghost Screams: True Stories of Victims Who Haunt

When the Ghost Screams suggests that violence common to locations where murder or accidental death took place may cause a victim's spirit to linger there. With considerable attention to detail, Leslie Rule retells the stories of the restless dead, narrating the events surrounding their passing and telling of the rumored ghosts seen afterward. Chapters include:

* The Ice Files. These old, unsolved cases of homicide have long gone cold, but they may be the key to the question of why certain places have been haunted for generations.
* Witch Hunt. This chapter exhumes the old stories of witch trials in Boston and Salem, placing them historically parrallel to a wave of hauntings reported in those locations.
* Victims of War. An old naval shipyard, Gettysberg and other sites related to war are explored as places where ghosts from past conflicts continue to linger in this world.

Possessing a thorough, investigative feel and a strong sense for paranormal mystery, When the Ghost Screams empathetically gives a human face to the dead and attempts to bring them some much deserved peace by telling their stories. As Leslie Rule says in her introduction, "They are clamoring for attention now. In hotels and cafes and hospitals and schools and within private residences, they are trying to make us notice."
