Think you know Civil War history? Think again.
When Melanie Lanier set out to rescue her captured husband from Fort Warren, she wasn’t expecting her mission to end in tragedy… or that her final request—to be buried in a black dress—would spark one of New England’s most enduring ghost stories.
In this episode, we explore the true story behind The Lady in Black, the haunting of George’s Island, and why Melanie’s spirit may never have left. Love, loss, and one hell of a haunted fort.
Please take a second and head over to Kickstarter to support Paulie and Molassacre!
