Episode 55 - Ghosts of the American Revolution

On this episode, Christy and Kathy mark America’s 250th anniversary by exploring Revolutionary War history and the paranormal legends tied to it. They trace key events leading to the conflict after the French and Indian War, including British debt, colonial taxation without representation, the Boston Massacre (with Crispus Attucks), and the Boston Tea Party, before covering Paul Revere’s warning and the shot heard round the world at Lexington and Concord. The conversation then shifts to reported hauntings at major sites: George Washington’s Mount Vernon, Fort Mifflin and its “Screaming Lady,” Savannah’s Siege-era activity, and Yorktown’s surrender field, weighing emotional “imprints” against environmental and psychological explanations. They preview a future episode on paranormal influence in American culture and announce a switch to biweekly episode releases.
