And just HOW do YOU know that you’re the one who is telling it right? It’s an urban legend dumb***! I’m sure it has changed a little over time. So unless you were there when it happened, stop bitching and telling everybody they are telling it wrong. Who’s the jerk now Anon? And for the record a dam is to hold water, and damn is a curse word. Thank You

The story is very true about the girl jumping from the dam. I have heard about the keys story as well. 1st thing it is only on here prom date, 2nd there was a full moon on that night so it has to be a full moon on that same date, and 3rd you don’t leave your real keys on the top of the car. You use an old set of keys that are useless to anyone. Now start looking into the Carson House Haunting!

LOOK into the history of Marion N>C> and you will find out that a young woman did die in the lake in the early 1920’s! Her father worked at Marion Manufacturing Company and her boyfriends father owned the Coca Cloa Plant in Marion. Her father hated her boyfriends family and forbade her in seeing him. That did not stop them from seeing each other while her father was at work. One day her father was told she was riding around town with this boy. He flew into a rage got into his car found them. He demanded her to get out of the car, but instead, her boyfriend floored his car. A chase pursued and the father chased them from Marion to the road leading to Lake Tahoma. In the winding curves, the boy lost control of his car and it plunged into the lake, killing both teens! This is all documented history of the town! Their obituarys are in the old newspaper archives at the library Thats what really occured
