It was August of 2010, when Norcross took the brunt of a raging thunderstorm. Rain poured sideways, lightning struck three large trees in town, toppling one old hardwood that blew out the power to Norcross proper. Stores and restaurants flooded, as we launched our book, ‘Souls of Norcross’ amongst the mayhem! We dodged drips and drops from a leaky roof of the 1880 structure on South Peachtree Street which is now a coffee house. Baristas swept the flood waters and threatened to close up as we tried to offer up books to passersby. The evening seemed a bust until it made for one of our most popular stories to recall at the October Norcross Ghost Tour season! What stories will come of this year’s creepy evening?
‘Souls, of Norcross; A Railroad Town with an Afterlife’
The tour’s companion book, will be available for $13.00~
Guests may take a short stroll & get a glimpse of still emerging stories for the 2011 October Tours may do so at a reduced rate of $7.00 per person.
Haunted History Strolls are available every weekend for groups of eight or more… information hangs from the webpages of www.norcrossghost.com or you may email sally@sallytoole.com to make a reservation!
Courtney Mroch is a globe-trotting restless spirit who’s both possessed by wanderlust and the spirit of adventure, and obsessed with true crime, horror, the paranormal, and weird days. Perhaps it has something to do with her genes? She is related to occult royalty, after all. Marie Laveau, the famous Voodoo practitioner of New Orleans, is one of her ancestors. (Yes, really! As explained here.) That could also explain her infatuation with skeletons.
Speaking of mystical, to learn how Courtney channeled her battle with cancer to conjure up this site, check out HJ’s Origin Story.
