The Civil War was
one of the most trying moments in US history. In the
war's aftermath the peoples of this great nation
would not soon know an end to their strife.
Conspirators banded together and ended the life of
arguably the United States' greatest president. To
this day we can never be sure how many villains were
involved in the abominable assassination of Abraham
Lincoln.
Many historians still disagree on the exact
relationship between Dr. Samuel Mudd and John
Wilkes Booth. Did they conspire to kidnap and then
eventually kill Lincoln? Is Mudd's innocence
or possible guilt the reason the family home is so
haunted? Possibly the most haunted house in
Maryland?
Join author and ghost hunter Vince Wilson on
another adventure into the unknown! Use actual ghost
hunting equipment at this pinnacle location in US
history. Perhaps you will uncover
the Mystery of the Mudd
House!
