Summary

The US civil war was a bloody and brutal conflict that inspired timeless tales of heroism and defeat. What is less known, is that many conflicts took place on some of the most haunted and paranormal locations in North America. It should be no surprise, then, that soldiers from the front lines described seeing a plethora of supernatural entities, maybe none more terrifying than Old Green Eyes. Was it simply a folk tale taken too seriously? Or was something really paranormal happening? Time for Rory and Kit to find out!
