#Paranormal activity the marked ones atlanta ga full
Visitors have seen Confederate troops roaming around the area and one witness claims to have seen the apparition of a soldier in full uniform hanged from one of the trees!
The vast majority of paranormal activity that is reported at the cemetery seems to be centered on the aforementioned Confederate section. No less than 27 of Atlanta’s mayors have been buried here as is the author Margaret Mitchell who is best known for writing Gone With the Wind. There are around 6,900 interments some 3000 of which are unknown soldiers. The cemetery dates back to 1850 and includes a large section for the Confederate dead. No list of haunted locations would be complete without at least one creepy old burial ground, right? Well, for the city of Atlanta, that role is filled by Oakland Cemetery which is the oldest and the largest cemetery in Atlanta. Rhodes Hall makes no secret of its reputation as one of the most haunted locations in Atlanta, regular tours of the building are available and it has in the past hosted keen ghost hunters! Some visitors to the house have reported seeing apparitions of giggling children and the basement is said to be home to a much more malevolent presence which witnesses have described as a dark and evil shadow figure. However, she is not alone in her haunting. She is said to play with the lights and there are reports of unexplained footsteps and disembodied voices. However, as beautiful as this house is there is something dark lurking beneath the surface – it is haunted! The majority of the paranormal activity that goes on here has been attributed to the wife of Amos Rhodes who actually died in the property. These days the upper floors play home to The Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation, while the lower portion is a very popular choice for some of Atlanta’s most opulent weddings. The building was constructed back in 1904 by Amos Rhodes.
Rhodes Hall is affectionately known as ‘the castle on Peachtree’ thanks to its grand appearance.
