The Mississippi Delta possesses a rich past that fuels the haunted lore of the present. In this ghostly guide, Barbara Sillery delves into the legends and myths, tracking the homes where spirits still roam. She interviews witnesses and reveals vivid firsthand accounts of paranormal activity. A short history of each site and its ghostly inhabitants adds to the mysterious allure of these locales. Fourteen bone-chilling chapters profile the cavorting spirits and their often-frightening antics. Greenville's lost ghost remains on guard duty at the former armory. Rowan Oak, Mount Holly, the Lyric Theatre, the Old Capitol Museum, Rosedale and Waverley all have tales to tell and lively spirits who will not lie still.

While searching for vintage guitars on the internet, Zeke Schein came across what he believed was a photograph of one of the most influential blues musicians of all time. Schein, both a fan and historian of the Delta Blues, suspected that the image depicted the enigmatic Robert Johnson. His attempts to authenticate it inspired vitriolic debates among blues aficionados about its legitimacy. Schein's fascinating experiences documenting its history are entwined with his own journey of discovery and his unwavering belief in the truth of the image.
