Is it possible that some kind of great evil could whisper in the ear of a man and compel him to kill? That is what Matthias Schaumbacher claimed. The German Schaumbacher had immigrated to America and eventually opened an inn with his wife in 1851. The couple would use the cover of their inn to murder people and do away with their bodies. Those murders left behind ghosts and Schaumbacher may have even gotten a final strike from God, when lightning hit his tombstone as he was lowered into the ground. The natural and the supernatural seem to occupy the same place here.
