Quote : | "The Ghosts of Raleigh Raleigh, North Carolina
Raleigh is a city which has the distinction of avoiding the wrath of General Sherman on his march through North Carolina in the final days of the Civil War. Sherman had already burned his way through Georgia and captured ports in South Carolina before heading north, hoping for the dubious pleasure of sacking Raleigh, the state capital. Just before the troops arrived, two elderly men appeared in Sherman’s camp, wearing top hats and waist coats. They had been sent on an errand of peace, hoping to avoid the burning and looting of the city during the Union occupation. The two old men had endured tremendous odds to get to Sherman, avoiding Union pickets and even getting caught in the middle of a gun battle. Impressed, Sherman agreed that he would not burn Raleigh as long as they met no resistance from the populace. The old men agreed and Sherman kept his word, sparing Raleigh from the destruction that he and his men had spread across the south.
And this is not Raleigh’s only connection to the war, it is also the birth place of Andrew Johnson, the vice-president under Lincoln and the man who took his place after Lincoln’s assassination. Johnson was born in a home on Mordecai Square in Raleigh in 1808 and went on to become the seventeenth president in 1865. It is said that this house is haunted, although the identity of the ghost is unknown. It is said to appear in the form of a ghostly light, which can be seen from outside of a downstairs window." |

Check out the old State Capitol...here's an old story I found from CBS.
Quote : | "Creepy, Crawly Capitol
RALEIGH, N.C. — They haven't quite called in the ghost-busters, but the state has given the OK for a paranormal screening of the old state Capitol.
Staffers at the Capitol say they have heard floorboards creak with invisible footsteps, keys jangle and doors squeak open and shut.
"To be honest with you, I've always made it a rule to be out of the building at quitting time," said Raymond Beck, the Capitol historian. "I've had enough of those strange vibes here that I don't like sticking around after it gets dark."
Researchers from the Ghost Research Foundation will give the 162-year-old landmark where the governor has his offices a "spectral inspection," using infrared cameras, electromagnetic field detectors and audio recorders.
The Capitol has gone through a number of night watchmen who begged off the duty after one night of creepy noises, Beck said. But Owen J. Jackson, 84, managed the job for 12 years before retiring in 1990.
Strains of gospel hymns, the thump-thump-thumps that followed him down stairs and the angry slams of doors never bothered him, Jackson said.
"You get used to something like that," Jackson said. "I think there's a couple million dollars buried somewhere there, and they're just trying to tell us where it was." " |
