Real Haunted House

The Mayo House

Tarboro, North Carolina

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.

Anyone ever been in the basement? It’s the scariest thing ever, I was seriously freaked out. Go down there and there won’t be any doubts in your mind that this place is haunted.

I have been to this house also. The place is very eerie, but beautiful inside. There are quite a few Mayo house’s in Bethel also. A friend of mine couison lives in one of them and it is haunted also. I know Kelsi and like she said, 2 of the Mayo House’s were burnt down by teenage kids to my knowledge. It’s a shame they were burnt down. At one of the Mayo’s, the first time me & a friend related to Kelsi went to the house, and as I about to enter the doorway, a spirit went through me. Both places I have experienced quit a bit, but we never heard a dog, but there were many spirits there. I live in a house that is close to 100 yrs. old & as soon as I moved in here, stuff started to happen that are unexlainable. So folks they are out there and all around. Just have an open mind and see what happens.

I have been to that house. It had a very eerie feeling to it, and it has been the only place I’ve been that gave me that feeling. It was burned down, both of the Mayo Houses near Bethel. Since it was burned down, I dont get that eerie feeling anymore. I guess they moved on.

I been here a few times. One time I was up in that mo fo gettin some good azz car wash from one of my girlz, and right when she was raising up off me to pop a fine azz female ghost came up out of no where and jumped between us and I sprayed that ***** down yo but it was weird cuz like some of my **** was hitting her and running down here hot lil ghost mouth and the rest of it was like going through her hittin my gurls chest. But my gurl was saying my stuff was cold as hell, it usually real hot! So allz I can think is that what went through the ghost must have been cooled by her fine lil pale azz. So dats whatz up!
