ELKMONT GHOST STORIES - MORE HYDE HILL

These have been sent in from Elkmont residents or from published sources. Do you have one from the Elkmont area to share? Hill Spirit has not experienced any of these but one never knows... 


The old house was torn down in 1980 but strange things still occur on "the hill".  One of the two houses that have been built there seems to be where the unexplained still happens from time to time.  Sometimes when the night is still and the Comptons are in the family room, they will hear the car port door open and then close.  Footsteps come up the wood staircase.  Thinking that family members or good friends have arrived, they call down a greeting but... no one answers.  They go to check and... no one is there.  

There are stories of more than mysterious visitors who have come to call on the Comptons.  When the boys were still at home, there are several stories told of when the fireplace crackled during cold weather.  Who doesn't like to lie in front of a fire?  


The boys were no different but there were times when others enjoyed the fire as well. Several nights when the boys were by the flickering flames, they would see faces in the fire who watched them for a time. As the startled boys would get up, the faces would slowly rise up into the chimney and disappear. 


Does more than the living still share the Comptons' home? Is Doctor Hyde still making house calls?  One never knows what may happen on "the hill"
