The Ghost of Green Cove Creek
In The Marble and Other Ghost Tales of Tennessee and Virginia, Joe Tennis retells the legend of a very sad ghost in Damascus, Virginia. This lady in white frequents the Green Cove Creek in Washington County and it is said if you follow her she will lead you to a treasure.
The Ghost of the Minor House
In Pioneers in Paradise, V. N. “Bud” Phillips retells the legend of the Minor House on Lee Street in Bristol, Virginia. It is the former home of Doctor Minor and ever since his death the doctor, in spirit form, still appears with his medicine bag, walks up the steps and into his old bedroom. There, noises can be heard, including the playing of a phantom flute that can still be heard today.
The Ghost at King College
In Pioneers in Paradise, V. N. “Bud” Phillips tells about the ghostly happenings near King College in Bristol, Tennessee. The ghost of James “Jim” King Anderson, who lived on the Whittaker Branch Farm that is now part of the campus property. Jim suffered from panic attacks, so he seldom was seen in town and could barely make it through services at First Presbyterian. He died on April 22, 1902 but has since been seen in the woods behind the private college.
The Ghosts of High Ridge
In Pioneers in Paradise, V. N. “Bud” Phillips recounts the legend of the ghosts of High Ridge at the end of Windsor Avenue in Bristol, Tennessee. From this high point, phantom crying can sometimes be heard. He credits the eerie noise to a story of a quiet family that moved into the area. After two of their children died, the eldest child would sit by their graves and cry, until she, too, died. The parents left their house with all of the furniture, never to be heard from again. But it seems the eldest girl can still be heard.
The Ghost of DeFriece Park
In Pioneers in Paradise, V. N. “Bud” Phillips tells about the screaming lake at DeFriece Park at the intersection of Fifth and Stine Streets in Bristol, Tennessee. Allegedly, in 1876, 16 year-old Viola Kennett was ice-skating on the lake when the ice gave way and she drown in the frigid depths. Since then, on some old, winter nights, it is said you can still hear her screams coming from the lake.
