Blood on the Marble & the Ghost of William Taulbee

On this episode of Southern Ghost Stories we are talking about what happened on a freezing February afternoon in 1890, when the halls of American power became a slaughterhouse. William Preston Taulbee—the charismatic Kentucky politician known as "The Mountain Orator"—stepped onto the marble stairs of the U.S. Capitol, only to find himself staring down the barrel of a revolver. The man holding the trigger wasn't a political rival, but a volatile, five-foot-tall newspaper reporter named Charles Kincaid. Discover the brutal history behind the true crime that shocked Washington D.C. and the restless phantom said to still wander the corridors of the United States Capitol.
