Many ghost stories have one thing in common: they give a sense of justice in exchange for a tragic death. This ghost story, on the other hand, takes a slightly different approach. It's about wrongful death treatment and vengeance in the afterlife.
Robert Schmale was hung on October 13, 1877, following a trial in which he was found guilty of a horrifying and unexplained murder spree. The locals were so enraged and hateful that they left his body dangling for days. According to the story, none of the locals showed any remorse, let alone forgiveness.

Roanoke Colony was one of the country's early European settlements. The colony was formed in 1587 on an island off the coast of what is now the state of North Carolina under the sponsorship of the first Queen Elizabeth. Soon after, the colony's leader, John White, returned to England, where the immigrants had come from.
His journey was supposed to be brief. He was merely supposed to gather supplies and then return to the new planet. However, political turmoil (in the form of England's war with Spain) delayed White's return until 1590. Even though it had only been three years, a lot had changed by the time John White returned. In reality, the entire colony—115 individuals at the time, including a newborn baby—was destroyed.

Virginia Dare's name has vanished. I just got up and left. All that remained was a pillar with the word Croatoan etched on it.
"Croatoan" was the name of a native tribe that had gotten along well with the settlers. As a result, White assumed the colonists had relocated to Croatoan Island (now known as Hatteras, North Carolina). They had not, though. It is still one of the most famous unsolved disappearances. Furthermore, there has never been any indication that the colony was massacred.
 

Many people think that Virginia grew up to be a lovely young lady who finally fell in love with a native warrior named Okisko. She still stalks the woods to this day.

What happened next is a mystery—in fact, it is one of the most bizarre British royal family secrets. The young king and his brother (Richard, Duke of York) appear to have been kidnapped and imprisoned in the Tower of London, following which the Duke of Gloucester declared himself King Richard III. The two young princes were never seen or heard from again, and two little.
