The Mayo House
The house is reported to be haunted by the Mayo family. In a fit of rage, Mr. Mayo killed his family and then hanged himself. It is said that if one approaches the house at night, he will be chased by dogs. The family will then come outside, get the dog, and invite the person inside. It is said that upon entering the house one will see a rope dangling the stair well. Suddenly, the rope and the family will vanish.
I think that would be cool to see. I like haunted stuff. But how do I know it’s true?

Yikes. This is kind of freaky. But the story lacks detail.

I have never seen a true ghost but do beleive in ghost Not only because I am a christan but because I think when people die they are ethier in limbo plus I think in giving events in life bad things happen which make ghost even more real because of what happen. The thing for me is knowing fear maybe because it is felt in most cases but never seen Spirts I think can be felt but not seen. Ghost to most of us are ethier the unknown or the unepected to us that’s what makes it scary to we live in a world where on some sort human level we can face good and evil because it can be seen no matter what we are faced with but the thing is as human beings it’s hard for us as people to face or appect anything that is unknown yes ghost the only thing is I also think spirts can be angry of course giving the cards they were delt with. rather it was some part of history or tragic no matter what sprits have more of a reason to be mad if you were stuck between heaven and hell wouldn’t you be a little upset.

I really don’t know what to say about this i’m speechless, what I do know is that the people who are submitting these stories need to be descriptive about these stories.

hey, this is not really that scary. but its still scary. thanks
Comment by Sare | 04.15.2006 | 12:41 am
Freaky things happen in my house but it’s not meant to be haunted…i get scared on my own. i’m 13, i have a few ghost stories but some people say they aren’t true. i have a real ghost on my phone but i don’t no how to get it on the internet.
Anyway, this story does not sound true it sounds made up, but that’s what i think, it could be true for all I no…(it’s lacks proper detail) I mean, how does anyone know it’s true unless somebody has been there…I say it remains a mystery coz the house is no longer there…

Anyone interested in the paranormal, I am co founder of a local group in Fayetteville, North Carolina. My partner and I are looking for some new members willing to go on investigations. We have already partially investigated the Vander Light haunting. We still have to go back to with our equipment, but we did catch pictures of several orbs and ectoplasm. Our contact info is on our web site. http://www.namghs.com.
Thanks and hope to hear from you soon!!

Man, when I read the Mayo House I was all excited because I thought it was about mayonaise! GEEZ! Talk about false advertisment! Anyways, I love Mayo…I enjoy running it on my nips and letting it dry so it crusts off. I really enjoy rubbing it all over my body and once, this was the best bath in the whole world, I saved up and I bought, like, 100 bottles of mayonaise and I filled my tub with it. It felt sooo good, I highly reccoment it, plus it makes your skin so soft. It was a b!tch to clean up but I managed and it was so worth it.

this place is out in bethel *from tarboro (take highway 64) then exit 494.
but it doesnt matter.
some highschool kids burnt it down while back…
(the graveyard is still there. Weird photographs, but thats about it)
try acid park in wilson, or devils tramping ground in siler if your still looking for something to do…

Comment by jocelyn | 09.27.2007 | 4:05 pm
I’m really interested in the Mayo House legend. I am also doing a project about it in school. I have looked all over and this is the first time I have heard that there is/was a definate house where the murders happened. I live near Tarboro and know of many Mayo houses (they are a very big family and own a lot of land) so I could never narrow it down. If anyone has any more information or pictures of the house, please post it here.
Comment by Elizabeth | 11.7.2007 | 3:20 pm
The Mayo house that was allegedly haunted was burned down in an arson spree in the summer of 2004- I have pictures of the charred chimneys. If I can figure out how to post them I will… or I can be contacted at GingerSnaps1111@aol.com
Comment by GingerSnaps | 11.10.2007 | 2:08 am
I think that will be very scary to see…I grew up in a haunted house and I still don’t think that I can handle that.
