The Cursed Civil War Land

Our first tale comes from Ava in Newfoundland, Canada, who experienced something truly unsettling during a late-night phone call with friends in early 2022. What started as typical teenage conversation quickly turned into a nightmare when mysterious footsteps, slamming doors, and the sound of objects being moved around began echoing through her house.

The most disturbing part? Both Ava and her sister heard these disturbances, but each thought the other was responsible – until they realized neither of them was making the noise, and their parents were fast asleep.

Our second story takes us on a decades-spanning journey with Amy, whose encounters with the paranormal have followed her across multiple homes from Virginia to Tennessee.

Growing up on Civil War battlefields where cannonballs and bullets still surface in backyards, Amy’s family has dealt with whispers in the night, mysterious scratches that draw blood, and furniture that rearranges itself in menacing ways.

From her childhood home in rural Virginia through her family’s cursed farmland to her current residence in Tennessee, we explore how historical trauma might leave lasting impressions on the land itself.
