Did you know a discovered skeleton could be from the American Revolutionary War?

February 18, 2020

The skeleton was discovered beneath a historic house in Connecticut. Three other skeletons were previously found beneath the 18th century house, and experts believe all four could be the remains of soldiers who died during a battle in the area in 1777.

All four skeletons belonged to young men.

Taking this into story mode: this could be a ghost story. Their spirits could survive in the local area and influence events in the area over time. It would require some research, but what if the story is about a place, instead of a particular character? 

In different periods of time, the four ghosts could have influenced major events in the area, with different alliances forming between them as to the proper course of action. There would have to be a rule about no physical manipulation, but if they could infiltrate the dreams of major players they could alter the course of history for the town.

This could be any town, not just the town in Connecticut where the remains were found. Could there be a large-scale history of a city like New York, with vast amounts of spirits involved? Or could it be a smaller town, a fictional town like Macondo from One Hundred Years of Solitude, where the ghosts of ancestors come in to affect the lives of their descendants?

In order to get this to be a series, there would have to be a number of major events chronicled, each one affected by the spirits in different ways.

One feature: when the remains are disturbed, the ghost is sent to the “other side,” unable to affect the town again. 

The main character of the series could be a ghost hunter, someone who is able to sense when ghosts are at work and take steps to remove the influence by moving the skeletons to marked graves.

Maybe the ghosts are granted power when their grave marker disappears, forgotten to the world, and their final rest can only occur when they are given a proper gravestone once more.
