Tennessee Spot Named The 'Most Haunted Place' In The Entire State

Fall is finally settled in and Halloween is right around the corner, so that means Spooky Season is in full effect. And what better way to get in the spirit of things than diving deep into tales of apparitions, mysterious urban legends and other stories of all the things that go bump in the night.

Thrillist compiled a list of the "most haunted place" in every state, finding chilling locations like "old state hospitals, murder sites, homes with talking dolls, and hotels [that] are so disturbing, they've served as the setting for some of the most iconic horror movies."

According to the list, the most haunted spot in Tennessee is the Bell Witch Cave in Adams, an eerie spot that even reportedly chilled Tennessee native and former U.S. President Andrew Jackson to the bone when he visited, saying that while he "saw nothing," he "heard enough to convince me that I'd rather fight the British than to deal with this torment they call the Bell Witch."

Here's what the site had to say about the reportedly most haunted spot in all of Tennessee:

"Every kid in Tennessee grows up scared of the Bell Witch, daring each other at sleepovers to say 'I hate the Bell Witch' 100 times in front of the bathroom mirror to summon her malevolent spirit. In the early 19th century, 'Kate,' the Bell Witch ghost, tormented the Bell family in Adams, Tennessee, residing in a cave behind their property. Besides pinching, pulling hair, and taunting their visitors with strange sounds, she repeatedly tried to choke patriarch John Bell. You can tour the ghostly cave, which has been placed on the National Historic Register, and according to the tour guides, visitors have felt sensations of being pushed, touched, or held down by a heavyweight."
