Sewanee, Tennessee - The University of the South - Walsh-Ellet Hall
Witnesses have heard footsteps come up the staircase and continue into the corridor pause by the open door where I was studying--felt an odd chill--then the footsteps continued down the hall and down the staircase on the other side. In addition, there are two enclosed staircases on the exterior of Walsh-Ellet Building on the Quad and one is labelled 'UP' and the other is labelled 'Down'. Sewanee began as a Military Academy and the soldiers walked up the 'DOWN' staircase and 'UP' the down to prevent the hitting of their sabers of the staircase. A good friend of mine had an experience on these stairs. She was walking down the 'DOWN' staircase and she saw a soldier walking up the same staircase--he looked at her and pointed up. Many students have heard and seen the soldier especially if they are going the 'wrong direction' on the stairs.

There was a small private plane crashed between Billy Hollow RD and Dean Hill Rd many years ago. There were four passengers and one pilot on board the plane. One passenger was a woman and her infant baby. Throughout the years, several different types of people have reported hearing and seeing many strange things around those hills. The most popular tale is that if you drive down Billy Hollow RD or Dean Hill RD anytime after dark, you can hear either/or a baby crying or its mother desperately trying to locate it. Other stories include sightings of five strange-looking "people" walking alongside Billy Hollow RD. But when you turn around and go back to get a better look, there is no one around, and nowhere that they could have disappeared to so suddenly, unless they simply vanished.

Then just as you start to panic, your car roars to life once again. Yet another unexplained incident in Tennessee's ghostly history.
