While I don’t dress up for Halloween anymore, I do so enjoy hearing the stories of odd bumps in the night, about the lady in the wedding dress at the side of the road, or the soldiers dressed in the Union Blue or Confederate Gray at the old battlefield.

This, of course, is the best time of the year to hear ghost stories. One of my friends - Aunt B. - is posting a new ghost story every day at her blog site. She has interviewed countless people in the Middle Tennessee and Nashville area and then is beautifully retelling the stories about invisible children laughing, women weeping, graves moved.

We have plenty of ghost stories in Middle Tennessee, for sure. In a couple of weeks - October 26 and 27 - you can come to Smyrna, Tennessee and visit the Sam Davis Home to hear the tales from this historical home. And there are plenty of stories like this accounting from the Murfreesboro Post, for example: murfreesboropost.com

On this day, Elkins remembers unlocking the outside doors of the home and turning off the alarm in preparation for a day of tours.

When he unlocked the front door, Elkins suddenly realized there was a noise coming from inside the house.

“I stopped to listen,” he said. “It was unmistakable. It sounded like someone weeping.”

Then he began walking towards the formal parlor in the front of the house, where he expected the noise was coming from. When he was just outside the door to the room, the noise stopped. There was no one in the room.

You can read more about some of our weird activities at the Nashville Ghost and Paranormal Investigators site. As for me, I’m going to focus on staying away from these things that wig me out!
