The Tar Heel State is not without a plethora of ghost stories, unexplained haunts, and hair-raising tales. Back in the 1940s and 50s, a tale began to fester in the town of Williamston, NC about a local mill owner who decided to do away with his nagging wife.
Generations of youth have since spread the tale of how the mill owner tied a mill block to his wife and threw here over the bridge into Yarrell Creek below. As she was still alive, she screamed all the while.
