The Shadowlands...

Postby Frau_Blucher » Mon Apr 02, 2007 5:02 am

Kind of a cool site. It's "Places" pages has a huge database of supposedly haunted locales:

http://theshadowlands.net/places/

There's three listed in my town. Kinda cool to know about some lore of your local area:

Nineveh Falls - Located at a crossing of the Hammonasset River near the town of Madison is the former site of Nineveh Falls. It is said that the ghost of a young Indian maiden and warrior haunt this area. In pre-colonial times a young warrior went to war with the rest of the warrior in his village against another tribe leaving his love behind. Soon word was received of a great battle and the villagers were told that there were casualties, including the young warrior. The young maiden became inconsolable and wandered to the high cliffs at Nineveh where she jumped to her death. Shortly afterwards, the young warrior, unharmed arrived home only to find that his love had committed suicide. Despondent, he went to the same area and committed suicide in the same manner to be with his love for eternity.

North Parker Hill Road Cemetery - The ghosts of a bride and groom have been observed crossing the road both to and from this cemetery. A number of other phenomena have been seen and experienced in this cemetery.

The Old Inn - Since 1790 this building has been the site of taverns, restaurants, Inns, B and B's, bars or cafes. The ghosts of a man and woman have been observed and "felt" throughout this building.

Interesting! Thanks for the heads-up. Charleston has no less than 12 listed- the locals here boast that they are the most haunted city in the nation (although I've heard this from Boston, New Orleans, Savannah, and other cities as well). Fun to see some of our folkstories posted.
