Jubal and Elizabeth: Taken from the Book "Stories from the Devil's Den" (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798349338786)

At the south end of the battlefield is an eerie formation of enormous boulders, balanced in precarious ways, riven with crevices, and surrounded by dark forests and towering hills. This place is named the Devil's Den. If you seek to find a spirit at Gettysburg, here you will find one. But it is one you will not wish to find. The spirit is pure evil, and came into existence a millennium ago, sprouting from a seed nourished by human blood. It lay dormant, until reawakened by the blood spilled so profusely at Gettysburg. That Spirit was hostile to those who passed within its realm, and punished them in mysterious and inexplicable ways. Jubal and Elizabeth were among its victims.

Jubal was a simple back-woodsman with an incredible talent for marksmanship. Elizabeth was a devoted mother and homemaker. Both had admirable traits. Jubal was loyal, felt a strong sense of duty, and believed that a promise made is a promise that must be kept. Elizabeth was compassionate, and willing to make sacrifices to benefit others. The Spirit of the Devil's Den had the power to take an admirable trait, twist it, pervert it, and use it as a weapon of hatred. In Jubal's case, he was the victim of a surprise attack. In the case of Elizabeth, she faced a brutal and sustained frontal assault.
