The Story:
Workman's Cemetery
A girl by the name of Pamela Harris was eight years old when she died, Mr. Workman (no first name given) owned the graveyard, and Pam was a slave (which seems to be a running theme for problemed spirits around here), he was really mean to her, and continues to be mean to her in the afterlife. Pam died before Mr. Workman, and Workman put a curse on this rock slab hidden somewhere out in the forest by the graveyard that none of the people buried in the
cemetery would be able to leave (meaning go from the spiritual world to heaven). Pamela wants us to find this stone and break it, therefore
releasing the spirits so they are free to leave and ending
Workman's curse. ....

Greenfield,
TN - Old Mosley Mansion and Cemetery
- It was a old
Civil War House...my Dad live there as a child but he died
when I was four so the only thing I know is what my mother has
told me, which was quite the haunted house back in the day
..I'm not sure if it was torn down or burned down I've heard
different stories. There is a cemetery on back in the woods a
bit, which it is told to be the home of an unfriendly spirit.
Also heard if you pulled in the driveway and turned off your
engine, it wouldn't start back until you moved it off the
property....this has never happened to us though.
If you know anything about this
place please write to us!

Martin,
TN - Clement Hall Ghost at University of Tennessee at Martin.
 The
University of Tennessee at Martin is no exception for ghost
haunts. Although known all across campus, the ghost that
supposedly haunts Clement Hall is the most well known story at
UTM.
Campus story go like this:
Some years back, a female student killed herself on the fourth
floor of Clement Hall. Nobody seems to know why she did it,
other than that she was severely depressed. I have heard it was
over a boyfriend. Now it is said that she haunts Clement Hall.
Though odd happenings have been reported throughout the hall,
they seem to be most common on the fourth floor, which is locked
now. Strangely enough, the most ghostly activity is said to
resonate from the community bathroom. Maybe this was where the
student ended her life, though no one seems to know for sure. If
you know anything
email us!

Submited Account of UTM Clement
Hall- I have long been
interested in the paranormal and, throughout my life, have had a
multitude of experiences that I consider paranormal in nature.
From 1972 through 1974, I lived in Clement Hall on the 4th
floor, about 2 doors down from the community bath (same side of
the hall). I was totally unaware until very recently that anyone
else had had any experiences with the spirit in the dorm, as no
one had ever talked about it while I was at UTM, at least not to
me. My roommate and I were up late one night in our room talking
(all the lights were on) when a black shape passed very quickly
across the room, starting at the door, and went straight out the
window. It was accompanied by some very negative feelings. We
stayed awake until the sun came up, but it didn't come back. Nor
did we ever see it again or feel anything out of the ordinary
again.
As I said, no one had ever
mentioned a haunting before that event, and no one we told at
the time had heard of anything, either. I just learned of the
dorm's history while doing research on the web this past month.
I was, to say the least, delighted to find some confirmation of
our experience.
The are also two houses in
Martin that contained active spirits while I was a student
there. One of them is on Poplar. Some of my theater friends
lived there around 1973-75. One of my friends was awakened by a
female apparition on several occasions. We found a grave stone
in the basement (may or may not be related). The other house is
107 Ryan St. My roommate (same one) and I lived there in
1975-76. It had been converted into 3 apartments. We had the
middle one which had 2 adjoining bedrooms upstairs. A wide
variety of things happened while we were there, some of which
were NOT good. After we had been there for a few months, we
found out a woman had burned to death upstairs. There were still
charred timbers in the closet of the smaller bedroom. A friend
of ours had lived there right before we moved in and told us
later that she moved out because of the spirit activity.
