Civil War ghosts in the front yard

Have you ever tried recording anything?

One more bump for OP and to see if anyone else has similar ghost stories

Bamping, would like to hear more spoopy Civil War stories.

no stories sorry, but I do find it interesting that all stories about civil war ghosts shows them never having any negative feelings or anything towards the living. The Gettysburg ones interact and attempt to share with the living no matter union or confederate. I wonder if they just see you as on their side or what. Thoughts?

Ive often wondered that- like its some sort of time slip, and they are just seeing you in their time as a type of ghost. Some evp's sometimes sound like the ghost is scared and is calling out as though you are an appartition to them in their time.

The time slip sounds like a plausible idea. My favorite is the one of the Union soldier who appears to a couple of guys on a hike. The soldier congratulates them on a hard fought day and gives them a pair of cartridges before disappearing. It really is interesting to guess what that soldier was doing when he died and why he felt compelled to share ammo with two out of uniform people (the hikers).

Just moved to Virginia, central part. The wire and I bought a house a mile from the small town where I work. Late one afternoon I could hear gun fire and cannon shot from the tree line along the property's edge. I thought it was reenactors out playing. I looked up the local group and found they were all done for the season. So I asked him if there were any other folks with that kind of equipment in the area. When I told him why he got really quiet and asked where I was hearing the shots. When I told him he said that I lived right along the edge of a major battle field.

(Cont) after I got off the phone, and relayed what he said to my wife she said it was "totally creepy" later that evening we could see lights and hear talking from that side of the property.

that's pretty cool. How often does that happen and could I bother you to describe in a little more detail what you experiance/d? Im going to school studying the civil war and I love this type of stuff.

Only once so far, we have been here a few months. I've been told that late summer early fall is when this happens more often. But the town is very big in civil war culture.

As far as detail. I'm former military and immediately recognized rifle fire, the guns we used in ceremony were 6 pound guns. The sound was very similar. I listened for at least a minute of intermittent shots. After the sun set the lights were in the trees like big fireflies, and the voices were very distant but distinct.
