this is really fascinating. i love this stuff. ive never had any experiences like these but i would love to .

My high school boyfriend lived in the servants quarters that is connected to the mansion by an underground tunnel. His home was extreamly active. We could hear walking up and down the stairs and we were the only ones home, things would fly off walls and stuff like that. That place is very creepy and active!

this is the story ive always heard but my doctor lives in Rotherwood mansion and she said she has never seen anything but i mean….who knows! ive been there several times and ive gotten the feeling of someone watching me…..

ugh what a sick father he is to do that…her one love forbbidden from eachother
he just wanted his daughter all to himself!!
sick *******!
ill have to see how scary this is myself!!! muahhhahahah

We are a paranormal research group that knows that the home is owned and lived in by the owners. there are several different stories about the mansion but there are no investigations allowed there at this time. We are working with a friend of the owners to try and get permission. however there is the Sensabaugh Tunnels not far from there.

lacy is correct i live in the immeadate area and being a paranormal investigator i have extensivly researched this story. just as lacy said is the said true story. at the current time i am trying to get premission to conduct an investigation of the mansion…..another story you might be interested in is john sevier hotel or center dig deep though it has a few actuall tragedies that happened it is in johnson city

i also heard that she was cheating on the soilder and he found out and murderd her.they were going to hang him but before they went to his house he throw himself in the river.

I AM THINKING AOUT GOING THERE ITS VERY CLOSE TO ME I THINK IT IS JUST A FE ROADS DOWN FROM MY HOUSE I WILL GO THERE WITH MY TEAM I INVESTIGATE WITH!!!!!

I live in kingsport and have never been able to go near the house.My mom told me that when they were younger, they saw a little girl outside holding out her hand and then she vanished.I’ve also heard that Mr. Rotherwood had slaves and when the slaves started getting older and unable 2 work, rotherwood would make them dig their own graves and make another slave shoot them so that they would fall back into the grave.You can hear the sound of someone digging and humming a sad tune when it’s quiet out.

i just read somewhere else that the rotherwood that stands today is not the original rotherwood. the rotherwood talked about with Rowena and Phipps is the original. Phipps died in 1861, four years later, Rotherwood burned down. The Rotherwood we see today, Rotherwood II, is s short distance south of the first. I could be wrong, but i think it would explain why the current owner has had no personal experiences.

omg r u serious thats so scary i cant believe this

Is That near The Church Of Jesus Christ of latter day saints>>?? Because i go to that church and beside it, its says Rotherwood so i was jsut wondering

Ive heard of the Rotherfood Mansion story and it wasnt this. The one I heard was that he gave the girl a promise ring, went out to war, she though he was dead, she never ate anything, her father thought she was dead, barried her with the ring, some grave steal digged up her grave and stole her ring, she was still alive just unconsious, the next day went to her fathers door and scratched but she died a couple hours later and her husband was actually alive and all of this happened in the winter and plus now every one who lives there has to spend there winter in the holidays because they hear scratching at their door everynight and it never stops

ive heard alot about that house ive searched it all over the internet i am a paranormal reasearcher me and my friend samantha have been working on my house for awhile knw but we cant figure it out..im am only 10 years old and my friend samantha is 13 we feel very talinted with my special ability to sense a ghost and hers to feel there emotions but only if they let her only a few ghosts have blocked her ability so we leave those hot spots to the prefesionals!

oh my god i have heard it though

its not true i work with the owner of the mansion and have stayed servarl times at the mansion and never witnessed any “hauntings” neither has anyone else

Some of the abused slaves are ancestors of Diana Ross. She once spoke about this in an autobigraphy.

i have lived kingsport my whole life i can tell you that place is not haunted, i have been there, an the reason i no its not haunting is my aunts huspand owns the place. he said people just have there stories about it, i mean if people wanna belive it is haunted thats cool, but its not, its just a old place an like most people have there stories about it being haunted but there is nothing in there, but im not here to judge no one about the place well im out here latter folks….

i wish i could go find out for myself that’d be awesome
