North Carolina's Haunted Coastlines: Ghostly Legends of the Tar Heel State | Ep. 33
In this episode, we’re uncovering ten of North Carolina's most haunted locations. From historic mansions to eerie battlefields, the Tar Heel State has a spooky side that’s filled with restless spirits and chilling legends. So, grab your flashlight and settle in as we explore some of North Carolina’s darkest haunts.
Featured Locations:
Biltmore Estate
Asheville, NC
The opulent Biltmore Estate, built in 1895, is the largest privately-owned home in the U.S. But behind its grand halls and stunning gardens lies a haunted past. Visitors often report seeing George Vanderbilt’s shadowy figure in the library and hearing strange splashes in the mansion’s empty pool.
Battleship North Carolina
1 Battleship Rd NE, Wilmington, NC 28401
This famed World War II battleship is known for ghostly sightings, particularly that of a young sailor who died in an accident. Guests have heard phantom footsteps echoing through the corridors and chilling sounds of distant gunfire, as if the ship is still engaged in battle.
Brown Mountain Lights
Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Gorge, NC
The Brown Mountain Lights have been a mystery for centuries, with glowing orbs floating over Brown Mountain. Legends suggest they are the spirits of fallen soldiers or lost Native American warriors, forever wandering the mountain in search of home.
Omni Grove Park Inn
290 Macon Ave, Asheville, NC 28804
This historic hotel is home to the Pink Lady, the spirit of a woman who fell from the fifth floor in the 1920s. Known for her friendly demeanor, she’s often seen on the fifth floor or playing harmless pranks on hotel guests.
Devil’s Tramping Ground
4900 Devil’s Tramping Ground Rd, Bear Creek, NC 27207
A barren circle in the woods where nothing will grow, the Devil’s Tramping Ground is said to be the place where the Devil himself paces at night. Visitors report objects mysteriously moving from the circle, and an overwhelming sense of dread lingers around this strange spot.
Great Dismal Swamp
North Carolina-Virginia Border
The fog-shrouded Great Dismal Swamp is rumored to be haunted by the souls of those who sought refuge here centuries ago. Visitors often report eerie lights and ghostly figures floating through the dense wilderness, forever lost in the swamp’s depths.
Maco Light
Maco, NC
The ghostly light of conductor Joe Baldwin’s lantern is said to float along the old train tracks in Maco, where he met his untimely death. Though the tracks are long gone, the light is still seen by those who dare to visit, swinging as if held by an invisible hand.
Lydia’s Bridge
Jamestown, NC
Legend has it that Lydia, a young woman killed in a car accident in the 1920s, still hitchhikes near this bridge on rainy nights. Drivers who pick her up say she disappears just as they approach her home, leaving only a chill in the air.
Bentonville Battlefield
5466 Harper House Rd, Four Oaks, NC 27524
Site of a bloody Civil War battle, Bentonville Battlefield is said to be haunted by the spirits of fallen soldiers. Apparitions in ragged uniforms and the sounds of musket fire have been reported by visitors walking these hallowed grounds.
Bellamy Mansion
503 Market St, Wilmington, NC 28401
Built in 1859, the Bellamy Mansion is home to the spirit of Mary Bellamy, who is often seen on the grand staircase. The mansion’s basement is also rumored to be haunted by a former servant, with eerie sounds and voices frequently heard.
