Ghosts and legends fill the Ghost Walk in Bath; most are connected with the town or surrounding area. Ghost Walkers learn about Jesse Elliot, who could not resist a drink or a bet, and did so on a Sunday much to his regret; the unforgettable pirate Blackbeard; Edna Ferber, who gathered material for her book, Showboat; and the Rev. George Whitfield, who placed a curse on the town for 100 years.
