A conversation about why the supernatural has fascinated people in every century and every culture — and why that fascination returns each fall as the nights grow longer and All Hallows’ Eve approaches. With ghost walks underway across Baltimore, Sharon explores what our ghost stories reveal about grief, memory, and the human need to believe that something of us remains.
She also shares the research behind her novels — the hours spent in centuries-old cemeteries, walking the ground her characters walked and reading the stones that hold their stories. The conversation closes with The Grays of Truth, her award-winning murder mystery drawn from true events in Reconstruction-era Baltimore, where an Edgar Allan Poe thread winds from West Point into the heart of the case.
