Journey by candlelight through the streets of Colonial Williamsburg, listening to eerie tales of Williamsburg's only witch trial, Black Beard and his crew, the "Wagon of Death," which can still be heard bringing prisoners to the gallows, and accounts - told centuries apart - of ghostly parties at Raleigh Tavern. Based on stories from Jackie Eileen Behrend's award-winning book, The Hauntings of Williamsburg, Yorktown and Jamestown. Some stories last more than a lifetime!
