The Greenbrier Ghost: Justice Served… from Beyond the Grave

In 1897, Zona Heaster Shue of Greenbrier County, West Virginia, died under “mysterious” circumstances—which is old-timey speak for “her husband’s story didn’t make sense, but everyone was too polite to push it.” That is, until Zona came back as a ghost and told her mama the real tea: she’d been murdered. This supernatural testimony led to one of the weirdest murder trials in U.S. history—because when your key witness is dead, you’d think that’s a bit of a problem… unless you’re in West Virginia in the 1890s. Join us as we dig into the ghostly gossip, Appalachian folklore, and the man who thought he could get away with murder—only to be outwitted by his very dead wife.Thank you for listening!
