In this episode, Christy and Kathy continue with their “Civil War Ghosts” series, covering the history of the Battle of Bull Run/First Manassas (July 21, 1861) and the Second Battle of Bull Run (August 1862) They explain key leaders, such as Stonewall Jackson, and the Confederate victories, casualties, the role of railroads, and how the battle shattered expectations of a quick war. They then explore reported hauntings across Manassas National Battlefield Park, including Henry House Hill (Judith Henry’s death and soldier apparitions, battle sounds, and lights), Stone Bridge (footsteps, wagons, gunpowder smells, cold spots), Matthews Hill (musket fire, smoke, vibrations), Sudley Church (field hospital with cries and apparitions), and Chinn Ridge/Longstreet’s “Killing Ground” (walking wounded, phantom cavalry, lantern-like lights, and intense emotions), while weighing residual vs. intelligent hauntings and skeptical explanations.
