A killer lurks in the dark streets, victimizing servant girls throughout 1885, and Austin becomes the first American city to claim a serial killer. The spirits of convicts wander amidst the manicured grounds of the Texas State Capitol while inside a public servant assassinated in 1903 still haunts the corridors. These are just a few of the strange and frightening tales of Haunted Austin. Within these pages lies evidence that the frontier bravado legendary in so many Texas men and women lives on long after death. Author Jeanine Marie Zeller-Plumer explores the sinister history of the city and attempts to answer the question: why do so many ghosts linger in Austin?

Haunted Austin
Popsugar 2017 Reading Challenge: A book you bought on a trip.
I tend to buy the "ghost story" books for the places where I go on vacations -- Salem, Danvers, Austin, the Stanley Hotel, the Lizzie Borden home. So I had this book for a handful of years and decided to finally read it through.
One side of me was a little disappointed with this book, oddly enough, because it was more history/fact than actual ghostly encounters, like many of the books of this type usually are. The author explains in the introduction that she performed walking history tours of Austin and that the people "lit up" whenever there was any mention of death at a location, therefore Plumer collected those stories.
I enjoyed it, but it wasn't what I expected.
