Ghost Story, Part 2

Officially, I am now obsessed with Ghost Adventures on the Travel Channel and I have discovered a possible faked scene.  I am not a bona-fide historian, but I love history.  So when the guys from Ghost Adventures began looking for ghosts in Gettysburg, PA at the battlefield, I was interested, if not a little afraid. 

I've always heard stories about ghosts in battlefields around Georgia.  The radio personalities from Alabama, Rick and Bubba, sent one of their guys to the Chickamauga battlefield and he was totally freaked out.  I used to watch their radio show when it was on Turner South.  I loved that channel!  Especially the show Junkin'.  I am aware that Rick and Bubba are not bona-fide ghost hunters, but you have to admit, they are pretty funny sometimes.  But I digress.

It came as no surprise to me that ghosts and spirits exist at Gettysburg.  The tv show went to a house that is on the edge of where the battle was fought.  A young woman who lived there was killed by a stray musket ball as she worked in the kitchen.  Supposedly, her fiance, a Union soldier, had been recently killed in another battle, so she was in mourning for him when she was killed.

Well, these guys go into her house in the middle of the night and using some of their super-duper ghost hunter equipment, cameras and audio recorders, start asking her questions.  One question was if she had anything she wanted to tell her fiance before he died.  The audio recorder allegedly picked up a voice saying "I'm pregnant". 

OK, wait a dad-gum minute.  First of all, I would like to suggest that young women in the 1860's would not use the word 'pregnant'.  I believe they would say 'I am with child' or 'I am carrying a child'.  Second, I don't believe a young woman who may or may not be carrying a child out of wedlock would announce to anyone, much less the spirit world that she was in that condition.  She lived in the 1860's, not the present day.  Is it possible that these guys are "enhancing" their ghostly experiences?  Will I be frightened if I watch it again?  Stay tuned...
