In this episode, we're uncovering ten of North Carolina's most haunted locations. From historic mansions to eerie battlefields, the Tar Heel State has a spooky side that's filled with restless spirits and chilling legends. So, grab your flashlight and settle in as we explore some of North Carolina's darkest haunts. Featured Locations: Biltmore Estate Asheville, NC The opulent Biltmore Estate, built in 1895, is the largest privately-owned home in the U.S. But behind its grand halls and stunning gardens lies a haunted past. Visitors often report seeing George Vanderbilt's shadowy figure in the library and hearing strange splashes in the mansion's empty pool. Battleship North Carolina 1 Battleship Rd NE, Wilmington, NC 28401 This famed World War II battleship is known for ghostly sightings, particularly that of a young sailor who died in an accident. Guests have heard phantom footsteps echoing through the corridors and chilling sounds of distant gunfire, as if the ship is still engaged in battle. Brown Mountain Lights Blue Ridge Parkway, Linville Gorge, NC The Brown Mountain Lights have been a mystery for centuries, with glowing orbs floating over Brown Mountain. Legends suggest they are the spirits of fallen soldiers or lost Native American warriors, forever wandering the mountain in search of home. Omni Grove Park Inn 290 Macon Ave, Asheville, NC 28804 This historic hotel is home to the Pink Lady, the spirit of a woman who fell from the fifth floor in the 1920s. Known for her friendly demeanor, she's often seen on the fifth floor or playing harmless pranks on hotel guests. Devil's Tramping Ground 4900 Devil's Tramping Ground Rd, Bear Creek, NC 27207 A barren circle in the woods where nothing will grow, the Devil's Tramping Ground is said to be the place where the Devil himself paces at night. Visitors report objects mysteriously moving from the circle, and an overwhelming sense of dread lingers around this strange spot. Great Dismal Swamp North Carolina-Virginia Border The fog-shrouded Great Dismal Swamp is rumored to be haunted by the souls of those who sought refuge here centuries ago. Visitors often report eerie lights and ghostly figures floating through the dense wilderness, forever lost in the swamp's depths. Maco Light Maco, NC The ghostly light of conductor Joe Baldwin's lantern is said to float along the old train tracks in Maco, where he met his untimely death. Though the tracks are long gone, the light is still seen by those who dare to visit, swinging as if held by an invisible hand. Lydia's Bridge Jamestown, NC Legend has it that Lydia, a young woman killed in a car accident in the 1920s, still hitchhikes near this bridge on rainy nights. Drivers who pick her up say she disappears just as they approach her home, leaving only a chill in the air. Bentonville Battlefield 5466 Harper House Rd, Four Oaks, NC 27524 Site of a bloody Civil War battle, Bentonville Battlefield is said to be haunted by the spirits of fallen soldiers. Apparitions in ragged uniforms and the sounds of musket fire have been reported by visitors walking these hallowed grounds. Bellamy Mansion 503 Market St, Wilmington, NC 28401 Built in 1859, the Bellamy Mansion is home to the spirit of Mary Bellamy, who is often seen on the grand staircase. The mansion's basement is also rumored to be haunted by a former servant, with eerie sounds and voices frequently heard.

Direction l’Angleterre, dans le Kent, la ville de Sidcup au sud-ouest de Londres. Nous sommes le 3 janvier 1946. Et c’est la naissance d’un petit Richard (son second nom pour que les choses ne soient pas trop simple), futur multi-instrumentiste et essentiellement bassiste. Il est très doué, à l’âge de 6 ans, il joue déjà du piano et reçoit l’enseignement de son père, Joe Baldwin, musicien de jazz et arrangeur pour des orchestres « big bands » dans les années 40 et 50. Sa maman, aussi, est dans le monde de la musique. --- Chaque jeudi à 8h45, Raphael Scaini accueille Laurent Rieppi pour évoquer les débuts méconnus, et pas toujours glorieux de vos stars du Rock préférées. Préliminaires, le jeudi à 8h45 dans Coffee on the Rocks.
Our schedules got in the way of recording this week, so we're revisiting one of our early episodes. We cleaned up the audio a bit (as best we could given the original Skype recordings) and added the cover art, which we didn't start doing until later episodes. We had a good time with this episode, just dishing on ghost stories with the aid of good whiskey. So, what was The Maco Light? A hundred years and a thousand storytellers have blurred the legend of the Maco Light and we're not going to make it any clearer. Joe Baldwin was a brakeman and was traveling in the caboose of an Atlantic Coast Line train through the little town of Maco, North Carolina, when all of a sudden it became uncoupled from its train. Was there something nefarious about this? We don't know. But, Joe, who may or may not have been asleep and/or drinking, realized that another train following close behind was about to collide with his car that sat motionless on the track. He ran to the back of the caboose, wildly swinging his lantern to get the engineer's attention, but the engineer who may or may not have been asleep and/or drinking, didn't see Joe's light in time. And the oncoming train crashed into Joe's caboose taking Joe's head in the process and flinging it into a nearby swamp. For more than 100 years, until the track was pulled-up in the late 1970s, Joe's body roamed the tracks each night with his trusty lantern in hand in an endless search for his severed head (you'd think he'd have searched the swamp, right?). In addition to Joe, we talk about the haunted Carleton House on Fort Huachuca Army Base in Arizona. Where a ghost name Charlotte pranks the Strom family by ringing the doorbell and running away, taking pictures off the wall, and turning the lights out at night. Of course there could be other non-paranormal explanations for these occurrences and we rag Col Strom for 'em. We also discuss the C-130 Loadmaster at Little Rock AFB who was crushed between two Humvee's being off-loaded from the plane, and how he sticks around after death to work on the plane. And finally, we touch on the USAF Academy cadet who after committing suicide in the 60s still practices his marching on the parade field each year when the new freshmen class arrives. And as we go through these stories, we digress into a conversation about the reclamation of lost submarines, inoperable dishwashers, and 3M Command Strips.
