~ Does lovely Alice Flagg still live in The Hermitage at Murrells Inlet more than 100 years after her death?
~ When ghost ships appear far out in the marsh, do they represent lost fishermen? pirates? Confederate blockade runners?
~ Are threatening spirits haunting Miss Genevieve's beads taken from a long-forgotten grave?
