1897: The lifeless body of a young woman lies in a house in Greenbrier County. 24-year-old Zona is dead. Her husband dresses her in a clean, high-necked dress. He lays her in bed and supports her head with his hands. Only then is a doctor allowed to examine the body. Zona is said to have died of natural causes. But one night, Zona's mother receives a visit from beyond the grave... And because today is Halloween, we have brought you a second scary true crime case.
