Spirit in Chattanooga
One of the more bizarre ghost stories I've heard that happened in Chattanooga is one a friend of mine told me, whom we will call Sara. It happened at a now condemned rock quarry, near Red Bank High School and the Quarry Golf Course. You had to be very careful driving up to it, because if you weren't careful you might drive off the edge where there was a three hundred foot drop off. According to Sara: "I was with my friend and her husband. We got out of the car.... And went and sat on the edge of the cliff. It was about midnight and we were talking and relaxing after work, when we happened to see this green light about a mile away. My friend's husband noticed it, and we couldn't figure out what it was. We kept watching it and it kept getting closer and closer, and we were still trying to figure out what it was. All of a sudden it disappeared, and we glanced back at my friend's husband. It was right behind him! It was really big, bigger than my friend's husband. My friend and I were really scared, and my friend almost jumped off the cliff. My friend's husband was pretty much frozen with fear. We jumped in the car, and then looked back at it. It was moving away, and was about half a mile up the range. My friend's husband ran and jumped in the car and we sped out of there. A few minutes later my friend said he saw a woman's face in it." Really strange, neither my friend nor I know of any legends in this area that would account for this. If anyone out there has any information about what it might have been, please contact me and let me know.
