For three years, fans of FC Cincinnati and Charlotte FC have disputed which is the true "Queen City". However, that may be where the differences end. Head-to-head results have not resolved anything—both teams have two wins over the other, and both have retooled their attacks and fortified their defenses in order to challenge the beasts of the East. We know of the big addition of Wilfried Zaha atop the attack, but how else has head coach Dean Smith polished the Crown? Can the defense replicate their conference-best performance from 2024?

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.

The second day of the Democratic National Convention ended with big speeches from former First Lady Michelle Obama and former President Barack Obama—both of whom praised Vice President Harris and urged Democrats to get on board with Harris as the nominee. The night was full of forward-looking speeches focused on aspirations to win a majority in Congress and achieve progressive policies under a Harris-Walz administration. The night was marked with division too, as outside in the Chicago streets, pro-Palestinian demonstrators became violent toward police. FOX News Radio's Josh Kraushaar and Jared Halpern joined the Rundown to analyze what role the Obamas may play in 2024, potential division within the party, and the lines of attack against former President Trump. There's always a lot of focus on swing states during election seasons, as both parties are eager to win over undecided voters and hopefully flip it in their direction. While most Democrats are spending this week in Chicago, former President Donald Trump is holding rallies in several battleground states. Today, he visits Asheboro, North Carolina, marking his third visit to the Tar Heel State this month. Republican North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis will join to discuss why he thinks his state will vote red in November and what he thinks Trump needs to do to make sure that happens.
