5 Haunted Places in Tennessee
1.) Wheatland Plantation- sevierville T.N.
Wheatland plantation in sevierville Tennessee is actually not the first home built on the land. The original home on the property actually burned to the ground claiming three young lives which were the original owner’s three grand daughters. It is said there is a child like presence in the basement. As well as some paranormal investigators catching some chanting and singing on recording equipment. Which may be explained by a mass grave located closely behind the residence consisting of 28 Cherokee Indians, 68 African slaves, and 2 revolutionary war soldiers. There have also been over 70 reported murders on the property and even blood stains lining the walls. So it seems as though it is definitely a paranormal hot spot.
2.) Hales Bar Marinia and Grill - Guild T.N.
At Hales Bar Marina and Grill on Nickajack Lake In Tennessee It isn’t rare to hear Native American war crys, chanting, and to see ominous black figures. The dam was built in 1905 in an attempt to tame the whirled pool on the Tennessee river. However The Native Americans near the dam hated and even claimed to curse it. Local folklore claims if you get to close you may inevitably fall into the water and drown. If you’re interested and daring they do offer tours of the haunted location. But you should keep in mind people have reported Native american figures circling the waters and a girl in a pink dress wandering the property. Legend claims the young girl got to close to the water, drown, and her body still lies deep beneath the lake.
3.) Bell Witch Cave - Adams Tennessee
If you haven’t heard of the bell witch cave you may be living under a rock.With movies and pop culture even referencing to the legend it wouldn’t be crazy to claim it may be one of the most notorious haunted places in Tennessee. The legend is based on a feud between two families. John Bell living next to Kate Batts. Kate believed that she had been wronged and cheated in a land deal with the Bell family. As a result of this Kate would go on to torture John’s daughter, Betsey, for the majority of her childhood. Because the family feud was so strong Batts claimed on her death bed that she would haunt the Bell family for the rest of eternity. The haunting gained a lot of its popularity when future president, currently general, Andrew Jackson, stayed on the property with his men for a night. He was quoted after saying “ I had rather take on the entire British army than spend another night with the bell witch.” The home itself had gotten so popular it was torn down for safety reasons. However you can still visit the cave today where you may experience strange looking animals,chain rattling, and strange constant knocking.
4.) Rotherwood Mansion - Kingsport T.N.
Built in 1818 by a very wealthy Rev. Fredrick Ross and intended to be a haven for the family Rotherwood Mansion in Kingsport Tennessee ended up being a prison of the hopes of one woman. Ross’ daughter, Rowena, watched her fiance drown in a nearby river on the day of their wedding. She then went into a depression and lived in solitude for many years. When she did finally find another love she was heart broken again when he was taken from her by yellow fever only a year into their marriage. Rowena tried one more hand at happiness when she married her third love and even bared a baby girl by him. But he passed away soon after as well. sending her spiraling and she drown herself in the same river her first love had died in. Now it is said that you can see Rowena wandering the property in a white dress searching for her first love. Later the land fell into the hands of a slave owner and reports of a black dog wandering the land, howls late at night, disembodied laughter in the dark, and ghostly eyes looking through the windows had been made.
5.) Sensabaugh Tunnel - Kingsport T.N.
Sensabaugh Tunnel can also Be found in Kingsport Tennessee. Built in the 1920′s and named after the lands owner, Edward Sensabaugh. It is, in fact, one of the most well known local legends. There are three versions of this legend. The first version of the legend is that Edward let a homeless man in his him as a charitable act. It is said that this man tried to steal jewelry from Sensabaugh and Edward held him at gun point. The man used Edwards baby daughter as a shield to get away and drown the baby in the tunnel. The second version of this legend is that Edward simply wnet insane and killed the family placing thier bodys in the tunnel. And the third and most believed theory is that Edward actually lived to an old age not dying until the 1950′s and all of his children survived. But as he got older vandals and teens would use the tunnel for fun and graffiti. So Sensabaugh would sneak down to the other end of the tunnel letting a sharp shriek. The tunnel is covered in graffiti and a small stream runs through from the creek. Legend says that if you park your car in the middle of the tunnel and turn the engine off it wont start back for several minutes. As someone who has personally done this i can confirm its happened to me, be it a fluke or not. Reports have also been made of baby crys, Edward himself walking through the tunnel, and a woman appearing in back seats. Personally me and friends have experienced thrown rocks, car and radio malfunctions, whispers, and even being pushed. So go experience this intense haunting if you dare.
Mary el elefante
Mary (1894 – 1916) fue un elefante asiático hembra de cinco toneladas. Conocida popularmente como Morderous Mary, actuó en el circo Sparks World Famous Shows.
Su popularidad devino tras matar un entrenador en Kingsport, Tennessee, siendo linchada y colgada en la cercana localidad de Erwin en 1916. Su muerte es a veces interpretada como un ejemplo de abuso animal en los circos a principios del siglo XX.
Luego de que el elefante matara a Red Eldridge (un vagabundo sin experiencia recién contratado) durante un espectáculo, el dueño de circo, Charlie Spark, a regañadientes decidió que el único modo de resolver rápidamente la ruinosa situación era matar públicamente a la elefanta. Al día siguiente, un 13 de septiembre lluvioso y con niebla, Mary fue transportada por tren al Condado de Unicoi, donde una multitud de más de 2.500 personas (incluyendo a la mayoría de los niños de la ciudad) se reunió en el patio del ferrocarril.
La elefanta fue colgada por el cuello de una grúa industrial montada entre las cuatro en punto y las cinco en punto de esa tarde. El primer intento resultó en que la cadena se rompió, causando que Mary cayera rompiéndose la cadera. La elefanta gravemente herida fue muerta en un segundo intento y a continuación enterrada junto a las vías. Un veterinario examinó a Mary después del ahorcamiento y determinó que tenía un diente severamente infectado en el sitio preciso donde Red Eldridge la había enganchado.

Once broadband is installed at Bays Mountain Park, the facility’s Internet speed will go from its current 1.5 megabytes per second (something akin to dial-up) to an impressive 200 megabytes per second. Coupled with the Wi-Fi service park officials hope to get later this year, the improvements will be a major change for the park and its visitors, park officials say.
