Horror Movie Review!  Late Night With the Devil

Sharpsburg is a small town in the central panhandle of Maryland.  It would otherwise be known as a quiet innocuous town had it not been for one of the deadliest days in American history.  In 1862, the Confederate Army marched into Sharpsburg and engaged Union forces in the bloodiest single day of the entire civil war.  Now the town is haunted by the events of that fateful day; and ghosts of some of the soldiers who lost their lives there still linger behind.

Paranormal Update:  UFO's, Vampires and Ghosts ... OH MY!!

The United Verde Hospital was constructed in 1926 and tended to the sick and wounded workers who mined for copper during the early 20th century.  The hospital saw an estimated 9000 deaths, before it closed its doors and lay abandoned for decades.  Eventually the building would be turned into the Jerome Grand Hotel, but almost immediately, staff and guests started reporting strange and haunting experiences in their rooms and all over the hotel.  From shadow figures, to poltergeist activity and ghostly cats, to something more dangerous and malevolent... the Jerome Grand Hotel has no shortage of terrifying stories.
