Historic South Carolina Ghosts and Legends

South Carolina is one of the most haunted and historic places in America.

Dozens of people have reported seeing ghosts and spirits or have had other paranormal experiences such as doors that open and close by themselves, lights that turn on and off with no one else around, candles that relight, elevators that come and go without help and footsteps and other noises with no one around. Some have reported bells that ring spontaneously, lights or orbs, cold spots, getting pushed or touched, strange noises and odors, and objects that get moved around.

Most of the ghosts included here are in historic places. Some are recent reports of paranormal activity that include pictures and sketches of ghosts but some stories have been around so long that they've become legends, like the Gray Man of Pawleys who warns of danger and impending storms, and the Lizard Man of Bishopville who rose to national prominence similar to Big Foot.

Whether or not you believe in ghosts, you'll enjoy this haunted historic trip around South Carolina.
