Strange Cases of Ghosts Who Forced Their Killers to Confess

An intriguing aspect of the paranormal is that of the vengeful ghost, out to solve their own deaths or to even punish those who were responsible. It has become a staple of fiction, but it is not always solely in the realm of the imagination, and there have indeed been many reports of people being haunted by the ghosts of those they have wronged. In many of these cases, the purported ghosts of the victims of murderers are so persistent that they lead to the murderers confessing, causing them to come clean when they might have gotten away with it all, and here we will look at some interesting cases of this.
One earlier account of this surrounds serial killer Terry Childs, who was originally accused of just the killing of 17-year-old Lois “Jeanine” Lynette Sigala in August of 1985, who he brutally shot 10 times in an isolated wooded area off Granite Creek Road in Scotts Valley, California. He was convicted and sentenced to 41 years in prison, and this would have been the end of it if he had kept his mouth shut, but over the years he began to come forth with several other murders he claimed to have carried out, including that of a Linda Ann Jozovich, Joan Mack, Christopher Hall, Penny Rickenbaker, and Linda Ann Jozovich, all of which he claimed to have killed and hidden in remote locations around the region of Santa Cruz, California. When pressed as to why he had felt compelled to admit to these further murders Childs would say that their ghosts had haunted him relentlessly, appearing in his cell at night, peering from the gloom and “eating up his brain.” He claimed that the confessions were to free him from these demons, and that each time he had confessed the relevant ghost had stopped haunting him. He would wind up with life imprisonment without the possibility of parole for his troubles.
