Haunted North Carolina

Clipped from www.squidoo.com

North Carolina Hauntings

Asheville North Carolina

North Carolina is among one of my favorite states. With all of the beauty of the surrounding mountains, I have never thought about this state being haunted. Isn't funny how we see things sometimes.

In doing research of Haunted North Carolina, not only did I find several interesting hauntings, but also hauntings that I have heard in other states as Urban Legends. Regards. I want to focus on Asheville, North Carolina because there seems to be a lot going in and around that area.

With all of that being said, sit back and relax and let's see if these tales will give you chills. I know for the past two days, I have had a constant chill thing going on after reading so much haunted things in New York and now North Carolina.

Haunted Long Island New York

Haunted Long Island, New York

Long Island, New York

Writing this page has been somewhat of an experience for me. I literally spent a full day researching the places I have posted trying to cross reference and such. Unfortunately, this is not my first attempt in trying to write about Haunted Long Island. I have started two different pages about the Amityville Horror, and ended up deleted them both. I deleted them for different reasons, but was thinking if I focused on other haunted areas in this area, perhaps I would have a page that I felt comfortable to put out there.

I am almost positive I have never spoken to a person who has not heard about the Amityville Horror. It is the most famous unexplained account in the country of a family who lived in a house and was ended up being killed by the oldest son. This case is filled with a lot of unexplainable paranormal events that has to do with the supernatural and very negative energy. Another family had purchased the on home a year later and experienced horrible, frightening hauntings and ended up moving out after 28 days.

Dustings from the School Bus

Back to School Quest

Dustings from the School Bus

The Angels of Squidooville received a letter in their inbox that spoke of a special quest that was available. Since it is that time again when all of the School Buses are out cleaning off the dust and getting ready for the new school year to begin, the officials at Squidooville headquarters thought it would be fun to go on one last adventure before school officially started.

Ms. Bonnie and Ms. Robin packed a lot of extra juice boxes and sent all of us Angels out to explore new territories in Squidooville. It was a seven day journey and each of us Angels were suppose to visit 10 new homes in a new territory each day for seven days. (I was really afraid we were going to run out of juice boxes because WOW this was a really fun road trip!)

Haunted Nevada

Haunted Nevada

Nevada Ghost

There are just some places that you would never considered to be haunted. Nevada is one is of those places I would never have guessed to be haunted until I was watching Unsolved Mysteries.

They were talking about this home that now resides in Fish Springs, Nevada and is well over a 100 years old. It was moved to Fish Springs from Virginia. I will share additional information about this house a little later.

This is an addition to the other haunted pages I have written for Scariest Places on Earth. I suppose I have decided to write a page about each state so it seems.

So pull up a chair, pour yourself a cup of brew and let's get spooky!!

Ghost vs Spirits

Ghost vs Spirits

Is there a difference between Ghost and Spirits?

As I write this lens, I too will be learning the difference between ghost and spirits. I know in general conversations when people speak about this subject, they will refer to ghost/spirit in the same context. Is there a difference? Lets start here...

Wikipedia A ghost is said to be the apparition of a deceased person, frequently similar in appearance to that person, and usually encountered in places she or he frequented, the place of his or her death, or in association with the person's former belongings. The word "ghost" may also refer to the spirit or soul of a deceased person, or to any spirit or demon.

Haunted Georgia

Hauntings in Georgia

Haunted Georgia

Why are so many people drawn to spooky, haunted things? Have you ever thought about it? Why do we pay the money to go to haunted houses on Halloween? Why do we love to watch spooky movies, especially if they are based on true events? Oh, my goodness when I went to see "Texas Chainsaw" and read it was based on a true story, I freaked! Did I watch the movie yes, have I re-watched the movie? Yes!

The truth is, Georgia like all other states has a lot of ghost stories, especially in the mountains and South Georgia. The old gothic feeling of Savannah is a must see. Oh, and I promise you will see or feel a ghost while you are there!

I know you will find some interesting things on this page and hopefully you will share some of your own experiences in the guestbook.

Haunted English Castles

Haunted English Castles

Haunted Castles

When it comes to haunted castles especially in England, there is a very long list. I love watching Ghost Hunters International because they visit many different castles with very spooky tales.

What do you think it is about castles that give them the reputation of being haunted? Could it be because most of them are centuries old, we hear chilling tales of things that happened in the dungeons?

Often the mind associates castles with Dracula, dragons, torture chambers, Dungeons of horror and an eerie feeling from the cold, dark, damps walls.

This is my 60th SquidBOO lens and the idea of it came from a wonderful lensmaster Rewards4life

St. James Hotel-New Mexico

St. James Hotel-New Mexico

A Brief History of St. James Hotel

he St. James Hotel is located in the historic downtown Cimarron, New Mexico. It is a historical hotel, restaurant and bar. It is known for its legendary status of being haunted by the spirits of men murdered there in the 19th century during the "wild west" days.

This hotel was built in 1872 by Henri (later changed to Henry) Lambert. During this time Cimarron and much of the surrounding area was owned by Lucien B. Maxwell. In the beginning the St. James Hotel was called the Lambert Inn.

The St. James hotel has been visited by many famous lawmen and notorious outlaws and was the scene of many murders. Some of the well-known people who had stayed at the St. James were: Wyatt Earp, his brother Morgan and their wives, Jesse James (who always stayed in Room 14), Clay Allison, Black Jack Tom Ketchum, Buffalo Bill Cody and Annie Oakley, Doc Holliday, Billy the Kid, and Pat Garret just to name a few.

Scariest Places on Earth

Scariest Places on Earth

The Paranormal and Supernatural

The paranormal involves many different aspects of the supernatural. It has a lot to do with haunted houses, ghost and spirit visitations and so much more. Almost every state, country and region has haunted and chilling tales to tell. I am almost positive it would be hard to determine where the most haunted place in the world was because there are so many. So this page is about many haunted events in houses, hotels and graveyards that I have found.

Living in a haunted house can bring a lot of anxiety into a person's life. When it comes to the supernatural there are facts that have been proven both physically and scientifically. Or should I rephrase that and say, some occurrences cannot be proven wrong by scientific theories.

Why do ghost exist? Do they exist? Why do ghost haunt certain places and some places are never haunted? The questions are never ending, and yet the paranormal activities continue. In today's world with more and more people searching for answers, there are many paranormal investigators becoming available to help you. I have several listed on this page and my hopes are to have more as this circulates.
