Baldwin County is no stranger to the supernatural. As the largest county in the state of Alabama, Baldwin has hidden stories to be uncovered. Residents can still hear the horse of a soldier buried in the Confederate Rest Cemetery. Lonesome melodies from a piano haunt the Grand Hotel Ballroom. Many residents have stolen a glimpse of Catman at Gulf State Park and a mysterious lady descending the stairs of a historic tidewater home. Author Harriet Outlaw tells the stories behind the spirits that represent the most colorful characters of Baldwin County history.

Known as the "Hub of the San Gabriel Valley" due to its location as the geographic center of the valley, Baldwin Park formerly consisted of cattle-grazing lands for the San Gabriel Mission. Known as Vineland by 1880, and renamed after legendary investor and landowner Elias J. "Lucky" Baldwin in 1906, the city incorporated in 1956. Baldwin Park evolved as a diverse community along the San Gabriel River, where Ramona Boulevard and Maine Avenue became major thoroughfares. One of the city's thriving businesses was the very first of the famous In-N-Out Burger stands, opened by Harry and Esther Snyder in 1948, southwest of where Francisquito Avenue passes under Interstate 10. From the area's first schoolhouse at what became North Maine and Los Angeles Avenues through the award-winning adult school of the Baldwin Park Unified School District, pride in education has remained a Baldwin Park constant.
