Synopsis

Myrtles Plantation in Louisiana is said to be haunted by the spirit of a murdered slave girl. At Raynam Hall in New York, a betrayed Redcoat spy is believed to roam the halls. In Salem, seventeenth-century witch hunter George Corwin cursed local sheriffs, leaving a lasting mark on the town. Dramatic recreations and commentary from historians provide context about these spirits trapped between two worlds. The film runs for 100 minutes and was released in 1996.
