This week, come judge the history of the Greenbrier ghost and the life (and murder) of Zona Heaster Shue. This famous American ghost story isn't like the others, we hear stories of 1890's West Virginia true crime, fast lovers (one with a secret past), and a ghost's testimony used in court... Let's hear a tale of how a ghost helped solve a murder but can Zona be the first ghost to actually convict a murderer? Join us in this episode of The Darkives and learn the true story of the Greenbrier ghost.
