    About this ebook

    Oldest Ghosts tells of unexplained exploits by the spirits dwelling in St. Augustine, the oldest city of European origin in the United States.

    • Judge John Stickney watches from a tree limb above his cemetery monument.
    • A Colonial-period ghost hangs laundry in a Spanish courtyard.
    • The ghost of Will Green, who died in 1802, routinely enters the bodies of men drinking in a bar.

    Some residents and visitors tolerate the playful spirits. Others prefer not to acknowledge them. Either way, the ghosts abide.
