Spook Of The Day #205 • the mysterious story of Boyington’s Oak
Its a classic tale of rags to riches in 19th century America - so classic that someone ends up with blood on their hands, and someone else gets haunted.
Charles Boyington moved to Mobile, Alabama during a time of expansion in the state. The young printer was a known gambler who had gotten into debt with his housemate. His housemate, Nathaniel Frost, was then stabbed to death and robbed by a local cemetery.
Boyington was the obvious suspect but still vouched for his innocence. He was sentenced to death but before he was hung he claimed to prove his innocence an oak tree would grow from his grave.
And it did.
