Description

True Haunted Tales. That’s right, TRUE. This long-awaited book banishes the urban myths and tall Texas tales, shining a light on not just on who haunts The Driskill Hotel, but why this Austin landmark is a magnet for the paranormal. (Hint: It has more to do with life than with death.) After almost a decade of research and interviews, Austin Ghost Tour guide Monica Ballard pulls back the curtain of mystery to reveal The Driskill’s haunted history, colorful characters and first-hand accounts from staff, guests and visitors who have encountered lingering spirits whose essence remains after crossing over. From the Senator’s Daughter, the Suicide Brides, Peter Lawless, Empress Carlotta and Col. Jesse Driskill to the antics of lesser-known unnamed spirits, these stories will leave you amazed and amused, yet a little wary about turning off the bedside lamp.
