The house on Pigeon Roost rd. was built in the late 1800's by Thomas William Fuller. Mr. Fuller was an affluent man in the community and former prisoner of the civil war. He built and resided in the house with his wife Mary Elizabeth Gill.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Fuller are laid to rest on the property along with a child's grave that is marked with a stone. However who the child is, remains unknown. Many stories and rumors of infidelity and betrayal surround the days and lives of the Fullers. Today the house is believed to haunted. So haunted and active in fact, that there are few family members and friends of the current residents who have NOT witnessed or felt something. It is one of the oldest homes in Smith County TN. and the first to be built in the area. Rumors of it being haunted circulated for many years. Most of the rumors can be substantiated by the homes current residents, the King family. Mrs. King married, divorced and re married. Has lived in the Fuller house for nearly 16 years. The King family have had many experiences that can not be explained. The King family, Mrs. King particularly. Protects the house and it's inhabitants, fervently like a mother protects a child. What makes this haunting unique is that there are so many phenomenas existing at once, residual as well as intelligent. Voices, apparitions, footsteps, breathing, perfume, cold spots, hot spots, scratches, bruises, and a level of comfort by it's spirits, they simply walk throughout the house among the King family, especially their children. Incredible sightings, body apparitions, flashes of light, mist and ever so rare speaking. Not EVP words, full sentences being spoken audibly. This haunting would be ghost hunters dream and by all means a once in a lifetime rare find. But Mrs. King does not allow the house to be subject to anyone, or anything that may bring harm,
disrespect or ill intent to her beloved spirits.

Fort Donelson National Battlefield / Cemetery - Dover,Tennessee
Haunted by the ghost of Civil War infantryman Reuben Hammond, who is buried
there. Reuben believes his job is to stand watch and make sure his dead
comrades are safe. He's also very lonely and sad because no one talks
to him. Even if you can't see him, just a simple greeting makes his day
(or eternity, as it were). He'll follow you around for a while because
he is just so glad of your company, and will wave from the top of the
cemetery as you leave. His name is listed in the records at the
Surrender House.

Central High - Englewood,Tennessee
One night at a central football game, a little girl was walking around the track with her friends. She was scared of many things so constantly she would turn her head and make sure everything was all right. Once, she turned her head and she saw that a group of gothic people were looking at her from the corner of the track and she saw that one of the gothic people were pointing at her as if they were going to kill her. Now if you go to the track at night and look in the left corner, you can still see people pointing at you.

Swan Pond Community Church - Harriman,Tennessee
It has been heard that the pastor of this church hung himself in one of the rooms in the church. There has been a lot of people that have heard noises when no one or nothing was around. In pictures you can see different sizes and orb shapes. You can hear doors slam, and at night, it has been told
that you can see red or green lights that are shaped like eyes. It has
also been told that on a certain Saturday of the month, if you drive
three circles around this church at a specific time, you will see
nothing around you, every thing seems to disappear momentarily. All of
the windows and doors are boarded, but they still have services here
but only on Sunday morning. It is said that there are only a handful of
people that attend, its strange because the church is enormous.

He owned several lots which extended well toward the town square and a store which is still located at 210 Spring St.on the historic town square. Since 1963 a few brave individuals have admitted to hearing May weep or show fear during a storm. John is often seen strolling through the house from the men's parlor to the front room which houses a Civil War exhibit. Marion is seen upstairs in the boys' room where he and brother John Jr. would watch for kids to come down the way. Marion is seen at times toddling over to the window. He is a blonde haired boy clothed in a wonderful soft light. There are no bad spirits here. May did show great sadness the day a 1870's period garment was place on display in their master bedroom which is now the main lodging room for the current inn. Several media sources have already noted this haunting including radio and newspapers in Tennessee. The inn is owned by GhostLabs Research Society's Dan and Carol Gist. Carol conducts ghost tours each day or house tours according to visitors requests.

starting screaming and said that a little boy appeared in front of him
sitting in Indian style staring at him, he said the boy had a shaggy
bole cut, which was the hair style that was in the 60's or 70's. he

Mabit Springs - Signal Mountain,Tennessee
In the woods if you go camping, late at night you can see a lone campfire. If you walk towards it, you will hear a voice calling out your name. Walk
closer and you’ll see a grayish, dead-looking hand reaching out from a
shadowy tent. Step closer still and the hand will go in the tent. And
the body attached to it will come out. It is obviously the dead body of
a young boy with no legs. He will tell you his sad story and then beg
and plead you to join him in the woods forever then he will creep
forward on his hands and reach for your face. You can feel your body
being eaten. This is when you run.

Billy Hollow RD - Smith County,Tennessee
There was a small private plane crashed between Billy Hollow RD and Dean Hill Rd many years ago. There were four passengers and one pilot on board the plane. One passenger was a woman and her infant baby.
Throughout the years, several different types of people have reported
hearing and seeing many strange things around those hills. The most
popular tale is that if you drive down Billy Hollow RD or Dean Hill RD
anytime after dark, you can hear either/or a baby crying or its mother
desperately trying to locate it. Other stories include sightings of five strange-looking "people" walking alongside Billy Hollow RD. But when you turn a round and go back to get a better look, there is no one around,and nowhere that they could have disappeared to so suddenly,unless they simply vanished. Another story says that when you are driving one one of the two roads, your car will suddenly die and as you try to start it back it won't start. Then just as you start to panic,your car roars to life once again. Yet another unexplained incident in Tennessee's ghostly history.
Chapel Hill - Triune,Tennessee
A long time ago a man was working for a railroad company. He was looking out the window to try and ascertain why the train was tilting, he fell off and was run over by the train, his head was cut off. He's still on the job. What he is doing is still trying to determine just what made the train tilt. All you can see is a mysterious light going back and forth a few feet above the ground. The light comes closer and closer then goes farther and
farther away.

White Screamer - White Bluff, Tennessee
In this small town of White Bluff,there’s a famous hollow where the White Screamer dwells. No one knows exactly what it is or its origin. It’s said to be a white mysty form that wails and cries and screams enough to make any person go insane, thus gaining its title of “The White Screamer”. It has also been noted that if one ventures to the spot where they might’ve seen the White Screamer, the grass will be burned away. Alledgedly, around the 1920’s a young man built his family of a wife and seven children a home and farm down in the hollow, and every single night they’d wake up to the sound of this awful crying and screaming. So, finally, after this young man has had enough, he grabs his shotgun and runs out into the night off to find whatever beast is making this awful noise. He climbs to the top of one of the surrounding hills to see if he can spot it, and then hears the sound of screaming… only it’s the voices of his family and children. By the time he can climb down this hill and get back to his house, he finds his whole family dead.. and pieces of their body thrown around on the ground and the floors of the house. You can still drive down into the hollow and see the foundation of the house and graves of the members.
