URBANA, Ohio -- Ghost-hunting groups are enjoying a surge in popularity.
On a recent night in Urbana, about 90 people helped set up night-vision cameras in a grassy field to see if they could capture
the "Lincoln Ghost Train."
Some people believe the train passes through this western Ohio city on the anniversary of the 1865 trip that carried President Lincoln's body to Illinois for burial.
James Willis is founder The Ghosts of Ohio. He says the group investigated the site but found nothing out of the ordinary.
Around the U.S., the Atlantic Paranormal Society has about 80 affiliates in 44 states, twice the number it had two years ago. And the Sci Fi channel says viewership the "Ghost Hunters" TV show has doubled since it debuted in 2004.
