well, i'm not sure whether i believe in ghosts or not, really. i had a really tragic upbringing (who hasn't), and all i grew up on was death, like seeing my father dead, for example. i've got a large fascination with the idea that they exist, but for the most part i can't say i've had enough experience to ttally believe in the preturnatural powers that be. however, this mill in particular, i've been to it 4 times now, and each time it was a little different, but every time i went i got the same feeling of foreboding. the first time i went was 3 months after the 1998 incident. that was the creepiest encounter i've had so far. the whole place smelled of death, and i envisioned some things according to the surroundings, like the slave house. i envisioned the execution of slaves in that house when i walked in, and i envisioned the bodies buried in the floor, and all this even before anyone told me about the story of the slaves. i don't know the url's of the sites i visited. i looked up on msn search the following: haunted mill of virginia (there's a website called "yes virginia... you are haunted"), and i looked up haunted virginia, virginia hauntings, beverly mill, chapman's mill, and history of thoroughfare gap. see what you can find. it's really interesting.
the only thing around here that is haunted is the old thomas sumter memorial site. that's all i really know of, lol. there are plenty of places around here that are. like charleston... and columbia i know for sure.
yea, well you also gotta remember though that virginia is a fucked up state with a really fucked up history that dates all the way back to before this was even a country. virginia and massachusettes are supposed to be the 2 most haunted areas in america.
me and you should meet up and go to new orleans one day. that would be awesome. cuz they are all haunted and stuff. i would go there. i just wouldn't go alone.
