2010 Tour of Southern Ghosts 25th Anniversary




Stone Mountain Park, Stone Mountain, Georgia









If you like ghost stories and southern history, you'd love this tour of Stone Mountain.
Storytellers share stories they love and guides help guests find their places from story teller to story teller in the historic plantation.
Nancy Knight always has a great story to tell.

There is usually a story teller at one of the slave cabins below.

Follow the lady in yellow for a story!


The barns can be dark and scary.











Run here to find the doctor.

    One of these years I'm going to take time out to go on this tour! It always slips up on me and I've made other plans. This year I was sick and didn't get to go. But just wait, next year I'm gonna make the trip!

    Scarlet. Tonight is the last night for this year. I do miss being home to give out candy, but there aren't many kids in my neighborhood, anyway.

    Thanks, Mary R. It is fun but a lot of walking back and forth for 2 + hours. Almost 3 hours last night. I need the exercise. I don't have to walk far and it's level ground.

    I also get to exaggerate my southern accent as a guide.

    Great pictures. It looks like a fun tour.

    Thanks for the pics. I've always wanted to attend the storytelling tour at Stone Mountain. Nancy does a great job, and she's very passionate about it. When I took her writing class at Art Station she told us about the tour. It sounds awesome.

    Thanks, Edie. You would enjoy the tour and the stories.

    Pam, you are so right about Nancy. The tour is very important to her.
    You'll have to join us next year.
