When we came to Terrell to perform paranormal investigations at the request of local home owners we got the feeling there was more to this town than what meets the eye. This was never more true than in the town's small business district. In fact, it wasn't long before we had stories to tell and numerous experiences to share of our own.
Each chapter covers a few of the more popular stories regarding its spirits and ghostly happenings. It's not unusual for the ghost walk tour guests to capture an unusal photograph or experience something unusual and unexplable both in the buildings and throughout the streets.
