Spooks in the News

As we near Halloween, newspapers across the state are carrying articles about ghost stories.

In today's Knoxville News-Sentinel there is an article about the haunting of the Bakers-Peters-Rogers House, and an investigation of it by Alternate Realities Center (Appalachian Ghost Tours). Also, Ina Hughes has some information on a new book by Alan Brown.

In Memphis, the Commercial-Appeal covers the debate on ghost hunters, and a story on Mary , the ghost of a little girl who supposedly haunts the Orpheum Theater.

The Nashville City Paper has the scoop on filmmaker Zac Adams, who is working on a PBS documentary on hauntings that features some Tennessee tales.

Know of any other ghost stories in the news? Shoot me an e-mail!

UPDATE: The Daily Beacon also has a story on the Bakers-Peters House.

Unless recently torn down the story of the haunted house in Jonesborough behind the rubber plant is bogus. My daughter myself and some of her friends went looking for this house since it is close to where we live. We foung nothing even remotely close to what was described, no house that looks like the house in chain saw mascare or any part of that story.
