Discover the ghostly legends of this Florida Panhandle city . . . includes photos! The seaport of Pensacola may boast the world’s whitest beaches, but there’s a darker history in America’s first settlement . . . It’s no surprise that one of the nation’s oldest cities is also among the most haunted, with culturally diverse spirits from the ages of the Spanish founders and British settlers through the turbulent era of the Civil War. Author and expert Alan Brown presents a survey of unexplained mysteries at Pensacola’s eerie landmarks. The infamous haunted lighthouse, the ghosts of St. Michael’s Cemetery, and the tale of the headless woman of Romana Street are just a few of the chilling stories recounted in Haunted Pensacola.

Discover the haunted history of this Florida Gulf Coast city with tales of battles, murders, natural disasters and the restless spirits they left behind. Located on the coast of Florida’s panhandle, Panama City offers plenty of charm, fun and sun. But it also has a dramatic past that still lingers among its old buildings and historic landmarks. Staff at the City Center for the Arts can still hear the footsteps of inmates pacing the cells of the Old County Jail that once occupied the grounds, and a phantom known as Virginia still frequents the elevators of the historic Bay County Courthouse. Not all spirits bring doom and gloom, however—one local family learned how to befriend the resident ghost of their new home that was fond of whistling at night. Using extensive research and interviews, author Beverly Nield details the ghastly history of haunted Panama City.
