Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ghosts are history. Whether you believe in them or not, every time a ghost story is told, someone is providing an interpretation of events of the past. The details of a ghost story may be factually accurate, or they may only be loosely based on actual occurrences. #2 The story of Barbara Davidson, a young woman who was murdered and decapitated, is told at a local play every other year. Her head was never found, and her ghost has reportedly appeared to and interacted with dozens of local residents. #3 In 1794, Barbara returned to live with her parents in Beaver County. She resumed her work on the farm, and everything seemed to return to normal. In 1795, her parents and the rest of the family made a trip to Pittsburgh to purchase livestock and poultry. When they returned, Barbara was missing. Her body was found buried in the cemetery about two miles from her home. #4 The story of the ghost was so well known that in 1935, the financially struggling Negley Traction Company tried to use it to make some extra money. It offered a tour called Barbara Davidson’s Midnight Excursion, charging fifty cents a head to ride the trolley out to the graveyard and past some of the locations where the ghost had allegedly appeared.
