For this week, we’ve got a story sent in to us by a listener who may have had an encounter with Green Eyes at The Chickamauga Battlefield in Tennessee. For those of you who haven’t heard of Green Eyes, according to some it’s the spirit of a confederate soldier that got his head blown off by a cannon. His spirit now roams the area searching for his head. Others say that Green Eyes is a cryptid creature that was lured to the area by the bloody Chickamauga battle. Now that we’ve given a brief overview, let's get to the story. 

When I was in Middle School around 2001, my grandmother took me to the Chickamauga Battlefield in Tennessee. We did it all the time when I was a kid, I actually still like to do it! She took me to go see the battlefield and check out the caves in the battlefield and stuff. We always like going to look at them.

 I had been really upset that day because my parents had gotten divorced not too long ago and I was still kind of sad about it. My grandma had always told me that green eyes is attracted to sad stuff. We were walking, you always see stuff in the tree line and stuff when you walk around the Chickamauga battlefield for long enough, but we got to the dried up creek. We were going to look at the caves around there. When we got to the dried up creek we could see something kind of moving towards the tree line. It looked kind of skinny but looked like it kind of was made out of hay and the glowing green eyes. I'll never forget the eyes. They were like two lightning bugs. It looked up, looked at us and then he kind of just disappeared further into the forest. My grandmother told me we need to get out of here. So, we went back to the car and left. It still kind of scares me sometimes being out in the woods especially when it starts to get dark because I know that's when green eyes will come out.
