21 sourced records. Reports are attributed claims, not proof of supernatural activity.
The house’s Civil War history has inspired accounts attributing a lingering presence to Dr. James Harvey Baker. Knoxville tourism records the tradition and notes that restaurant operations and paranormal programming can change. The attribution is not a verified explanation.
The Bell Witch account is a longstanding Tennessee haunting tradition linked to the Bell family. The Tennessee Encyclopedia treats it as a famous ghost tale and supplies a research bibliography. Historical markers and books document the story’s cultural importance, not proof that the alleged entity existed.
The East Tennessean covered the theater’s haunting reputation and the building’s earlier hotel history. Its long life provides the setting for modern ghost narratives. Coverage of the reputation establishes an attributed local tradition, without proving that past guests or performers remain as spirits.
The former prison offers paranormal investigations as well as historical visits. Tennessee tourism describes overnight groups using equipment while hearing the site’s stories. The organized investigation program is documented; the interpretation of collected sounds or images as spirits remains a claim.
Tod Carter died here in December 1864 after being wounded in the Battle of Franklin. Ghost Research Society records accounts of a young man in a bedroom and a girl on the stairs. A rainy July 2021 investigation produced no clear recorded apparition.
Tennessee tourism records staff reports of footsteps and doors moving at the historic inn. These are modern accounts of perceived experiences. They should be considered separately from the building’s documented history, and do not establish the presence or identity of a ghost.
The Winchester residence is associated with a long tradition of unusual occurrences. The publisher identifies this location in Historic Haunts of Sumner County, Tennessee. This is a published haunting account; the proposed supernatural explanation remains unverified.
A servant-associated haunting tradition accompanies reports of footsteps and opening doors. Knoxville tourism distinguishes this house from neighboring Blount Mansion, which it says has no comparable established haunting reputation. The servant’s supposed death and supernatural identity remain claims.
The Woodruff-Fontaine museum’s tour archive includes ghost investigations at this bar, particularly an upstairs room. The venue’s haunted reputation also appears in city tourism coverage. These sources establish a real local paranormal-tour stop; they do not independently demonstrate that visitors encounter spirits.

Its investigators reported electronic-device responses while acknowledging wind noise and other visitors as recording complications.

The former hydroelectric facility ceased operating in 1967. During a June 2020 tour, Ghost Research Society members reported a loud unexplained scream. Their account says another group’s recording failed to capture it, leaving a shared recollection rather than clear recorded confirmation.
This Civil War-era home is associated with reports of soldiers and a woman calling from the staircase. Tennessee tourism identifies a Haunted Live investigation at the location. The house’s battle-related history can be researched independently; descriptions of apparitions remain witness reports and televised interpretations.
The former hospital now operates as a paranormal research venue. Local history coverage connects it to several televised investigations, including Destination Fear’s 2019 visit. Reports of unusual activity belong to the building’s later investigation history rather than establishing that former patients remain present.
The Orpheum’s long-running Mary story includes reports of a child watching performances and playing pranks. Tennessee tourism and the state museum discuss the tradition. These accounts document theatre folklore and perceived encounters; they do not establish Mary’s existence or confirm the various explanations for her identity.
Room 311 is associated with the story of Annalisa Netherly and reports of unusual sounds, water, lights, and shadows. Tennessee tourism explicitly describes the alleged death behind the story as an allegation. The room’s haunting reputation should not be mistaken for independent verification of that narrative.

This documents a genuine heritage site with organized paranormal programming. The tours explore a reported reputation rather than establish proof of a haunting.
The battlefield’s ghost traditions appear in the 1981 book More Haunted Houses and the television series Paranormal Emergency.

The hotel’s own account describes apparitions, moving doors, children’s laughter and whistling. Named figures such as Sarah and Mr. Cloyd form part of its reported haunting tradition. Ghost-hunt weekends are a real visitor offering; those alleged identities and supernatural causes remain unverified.
Knoxville tourism identifies ghost traditions around several campus buildings, including Hoskins Library and Strong Hall. This profile groups the campus’s reported lore rather than counting unspecified stories as separate cases. University history and modern supernatural interpretations should be considered independently.
The museum’s own ghost-tour description records reports of Mollie Woodruff appearing to docents and visitors. It also confirms that paranormal-themed access has been organized at the house. The named apparition is an attributed tradition; the event listing is evidence of programming, not of a supernatural cause.
