Book Description
“In a sprightly, entertaining style, Krepp tells of the spooks and specters that haunt the U.S. Capitol, the Marine Barracks, and other sites and homes” (Hill Rag). From the Demon Cat that stalks the Washington crypt to the restless spirit of John Quincy Adams in Statuary Hall, it is no wonder that in 1898 the Philadelphia Press declared the Capitol to be the most thoroughly haunted building in the world. Yet there are as many ghosts in the neighborhood as there are beneath the dome. Local writer and guide Tim Krepp intrepidly takes on the best-known haunted tales while also exploring the lesser-known specters. From the weeping lady of the Maples to Commodore Tingey, who still stands watch in the Navy Yard, to the dozens of famous ghosts hosted by Congressional Cemetery, many former residents seem bound to their old home. Join Krepp as he explores the most historic and hair-raising haunts of the Hill. Includes photos “A hair-raising guide to Washington's ghosts.” —The Washington Post

Book Description
The Capitol Ghost is the story of ice skaters, street kids, coaches, criminals, and the ghosts that walk among them. Four children from the Preliminary Jazzicals Synchronized Skating Team enlist brainy teenager Karina Kowalski to help them hunt a ghost at the Capitol and save an elderly night watchman's honor. Karina uncovers the first clue, an ancient prayer, and begins to trace the ghost through nearly sixty years of history. But what will Karina sacrifice in her zeal to help others? A figure skating test, a father, or even her own life? At the same time, a street gang in New York City is led by teenaged poet Dayshawn Rogers. When Dayshawn's little sister is murdered, he requests help from Worldpol. Dayshawn designs a plan that Officer Chuck Zander uses to track down the murderer. But what will Dayshawn lose in his zeal to help others? A publishing deal, a father, or even his own life? Even though the two groups never meet, their lives intersect and influence not only Karina and Chuck, but also people they don't know, people in this world and the next world. The Capitol Ghost is the second novel in the Jazzicals series about synchronized skating, the world's fastest-growing ice skating sport.

Book Description
Take the Exorcist Steps to meet “the diverse array of ghosts” in DC’s historic neighborhood—from the author of Capitol Hill Haunts (The Hoya). On the banks of the Potomac River, Georgetown has had three centuries to accumulate ghoulish tales and venerable apparitions to haunt its cobbled streets and mansions. In this historic Washington, DC, neighborhood, the eerie moans of three sisters herald every death on the river, and on R Street, President Lincoln is rumored to have witnessed the paranormal at a seance. Along the towpath of the C&O Canal, a phantom police officer still walks his lonely beat, and on moonlit nights, he is joined by a razor-wielding ghoul. From the spirit of a sea captain who lingers in the Old Stone House to the strange ambiance of the Exorcist Steps, author and guide Tim Krepp takes readers on a chilling journey through the ghostly lore of Georgetown. Includes photos! “A great storyteller who, with a confident grasp of the facts and judiciously inserted asides, can bring to life both the haunters and the haunted. His way of ending his chapters with—gasp!—the literary equivalent of a horror movie organ chord lends a delightfully chilling touch.” —HillRag
