This is a confederate soldier cemetary and it is located on North Church Street in Lebanon, Virginia. You travel 1/2 mile until you reach a trailer park and you go through the trailer park until you reach the end at the top of the hill.Here you reach a gate that is not locked. There you have to continue on foot unil you reach the cemetary. (Not sure of the actual distance but not far)

Some have said the floating blaze could possibly be a soldier carrying a lantern. The man to talk to about this would be Richard Fulgam (former senior editor of The Lebanon News). He has visited this cemetary.
He left this review mentioning the graveyard incident on Amazon.com referring to a book entitled Civil War “Ghosts of Virginia”
by L. B., Jr. Taylor, Brenda Goens (Illustrator):

Ghosts in lost Graveyard of Lebanon, VA, April 20, 2004
Reviewer: A reader
My name is Richard Fulgham, author of “The Hogs of Cold Harbor”, “The Embracing Woods”, “The Lion of Saint Catharine”, “Appalachian Genesis” and “Man’s Laughter: Anatomy of a Manhunt”. What I say here is true. I met Mr. Taylor in the late ’90’s when I was a reporter for the Lebanon Newspaper in Russell County, VA. I’d discovered a 200+ yr old graveyard near North Street, all grown over with trees and undergrowth. Some of the trees were three feet thick. Amongst the tombstones, I found about a dozen graves of Confederate soldiers. Mr. Taylor visited and I took him to the site. I don’t know what’s in the book, but we saw nothing spooky. But when I went back myself that night, I saw reddish “lamps” moving around, emanating from quivering fog-like forms — which were translucent and seemed to glow in the moonlight. This accouht may be in another one of Mr. Taylor’s excellent studies, but it happened. I was the man. I was there. I saw them.

I’m interested in this story, because Lebanon isn’t very far from where I grew up in Virginia. I can’t say that I have ever heard about this place. My question is do you ever list places that are gave to you as haunted. I know a few places for the states of Virginia and Kentucky.

Ahhh, I thought that this would be here. I’m the caretaker to that Graveyard. It’s true it’s got Confederate soldiers buried there. There are, on some nights, floating lanterns and what not. The shrill voices that you may here are “Rebel Yells”, which have been known to be blood-curdling.

This comment is for the caretaker; My name is Allen Gross, I’m a confederate ghost hunter Please Contact me.

is the lebanon you speak of in russell co. or another place

Hey. I love virginia. i think this website sucks becuase none of it is true. alothough i wanna go see something you guys mentioned. i cant wait!

My ancestors lived/live up in Lebenon. We try to go up there every August for our reunion. I haven’t made it in several years. I have always been fasinated with cemetaries and would love to visit this one. Anyone here a Combs or Skeen? Or related in anyway?

I live a short distance away from Lebanon, VA and would like to go and see this!! If you could get back to me and let me know exactly where this I would really appreciate it!!

That really is creepy, and especially when my cousins live in Virginia. Is the cemetary close to Fairfax?

reply to missychristy14 –

Lebanon is in southwest VA, probably 5.5-6 hours from Fairfax.

I live in Southwest, VA.. not far from Lebanon. I’ve been to that Graveyard before, at night… and I did see a light but I couldn’t hear anything. My dad saw it too.. but we didn’t really pay much attention to it… but it was out of nowhere… so yeah…

Yes this place is real. I lived on church street for 5 years. From 1991 to 1996. My old house is till there. This graveyard is kinda creepy but I never went at night. Most of the markers are long unreadable but I was always told it was a cival war graveyard. It is not hard to find at all.

I heard this same story about a graveyard near Lynnwood virginia. I visted this place several times as a teenager, a few times late at night. Lot of imagination but not much else. The grave yard very interesting as some of it was fenced in and the rest was some what overgrown, but still disernable were the sunked in spots where the graves were and plain rocks for headstones. I was very surprised to such a similar story about another place so close. I also heard that lights were supposed to be civil war solders lanterns.

I am from VA myself and I am also obsessed with my sates wonderful history especially the Civil War. I am definetly like ghost hunting and this will definetly be on my list to visit. How cool is this!!! Thanks for the info!
