The Great Smoky Mountains form the border between eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina. As well as sharing these mountains, these states also share a wealth of legends, folklore, and handed down tales concerning “other-worldly” beings. These mountains have witnessed early explorers facing death at the harsh hand of nature, vicious battles between settlers and hostile Indians, major clashes during the Civil War, and misunderstandings between revenuers and moonshiners. Many of the people involved in these actions died, but their spirits remain. Every little nook and cranny throughout these mountains seems to have some type of ghost story to tell.
