This kind of stuff is so interesting to me…but I have also been to this one place in Brilliant Al, it was so creepy, back when people were really bad racist they had hung this black man over an old little country road so that everyone could see what they had done…they left him hanging there until the roap broke and the man fell right there in the middle of the road, noone bothered to bury him or remove his body so the man just layed there to rot,it was horrible but every since then no matter what, day or night there is a dark spot in the shape of a man, in the middle of the road where that poor man layed there and rotted…no joke….i saw it!!!

I grew up in Cordova and never heard of the Rocking Chair or Bridge incident. Many yaers ago some girls died in a car wreck of that bridge.

I’ve also lived in Cordova most of my life and haven’t heard that story about the rocking chair. I also lived up the hill from the fire station and don’t know of a 3 story brick house. But I do know that Indian head Mills is destoryed and can b dangerous. Also the Talloola Bankhead Hotel is soon to be demolished as well. Which is a shame because there is so much history there. There is a book at Waldens and Books a Million having to do with Walker Co. that has pics of the hotel in it’s prime. Now u want to talk haunted? Try easley or boshell cemetary. We got awsome pics and evps. In one evp you hear. “don’t touch me!” but it’s closer to carbon hill.

I know there are dog ghosts, because we’ve got one now. My roommate and I have been in the house with all of our dogs nowhere near the backdoor, and both of us will hear somebody scratch at the door. When we open it, there’s nobody there. We’ve even heard it while outside in the backyard with all the dogs out there with us. We suspect it’s one of our former dogs, Duchess, called Dutchy for short, who’s doing the scratching, but we don’t know that for sure. The only thing we know for sure is that we clearly hear somebody scratching at the back door and there’s no dog there when we go to let them in. We’ve even gotten into the habit of greeting her with, “Well, come on in, Dutchy.”
