nght, and every time he turned on the porch light to investigate, nothing was there, but the next morning he found claw marks
down the banister of the porch. Some see the shadows of people (possibly the spirits of the restless indians) rushing past
their windows at night but investigate to find no one outside. In several homes, people have reported hearing footsteps late
at night in hallways or on stairs, doors slamming shut by themselves, voices calling out their names, electrical equipment
going on and off by itself, and even the sound of someone or something running through the house. In one house, the face of
a crying man appeared on several of the doors in the house all at once. Try walking the streets of Indian Meadows or Shady

Anniston - Anniston High School girl's locker room - The legend of Anniston High School's locker room is known widely
through out the school. The legend is told to all the new coming female freshmen that go to their lockers to dress out for
P.E. They are told by what we call the "upper classmen" maybe to give them a little scare or perhaps to warn them from a revengeful
ghost. The legend varies in detail from person to person but the main facts of the story are almost always the same...a girl
is late dressing in and leaves a precious item and decides to go back to get it while sending her friend to hold the buses
for her, a man then tries to rape and kill her but ends up dead and the body never gets recovered and the obvious conclusion
is never go into the girl's locker room by yourself, always go in with one of your friends and never leave anyone alone in
there. The incident that started this legend occurred not too long ago. This is how the legend goes: There was this girl (name
is unknown) who was the type who always dressed in for P.E. She was the first to dress in and also the first to leave and
dress back out. One day while coming in from playing outside she was late in dressing out. It was the last period of the day
and she was hurrying so that she wouldn't miss her bus. Her best friend was late with her and they only had 2 minutes to dress
back out instead of their normal 5 minutes. While they was hurrying to dress back out, other girls, who was already dressed
out, was leaving to go in the gym and wait for the bell to ring that signaled the end of the day. Her friend was faster at
putting on her school clothes but she was more slowly and took her time. Deciding to wait for her, her friend sat on one of
the benches in there to keep her company. They rode the same bus and knew that it was almost always one of the first bus to
be there and didn't want to get left. Soon after the girl finished putting on her clothes and they both walked out to sit
with the rest of the students in the gym to wait for the bell she almost forgot that she left her purse in her locker. The
bell then rung but she was concerned about leaving it since it contained all her money. The girl's best friend offered to
go back with her to get it but instead she insisted that she get on the bus and tell the bus driver to hold it for her until
she got on. At least this way, the girl thought, both of them wouldn't have to miss it. So the girl ran down the steps and
entered the locker room to get her purse and her friend ran out to get on the bus and she relayed the message to the bus driver.
As the girl got her purse and began to close and lock her locker she heard the door creaked and thought someone had came in.
Thinking it was her coach she called her name to let her know that she was still in there and not to lock the door just yet.
"Coach...coach! It's me, I left my purse. Please don't lock the door just yet," she yelled but she got no answer. She then
heard footsteps that seem to draw closer to her. She then began to grow scared and forgot about her friend holding the buses
for her. Suddenly she heard loud breathing that was so loud she was sure the person was right behind her. She panicked and
dropped her purse as she ran the other way around the lockers toward the doors but was yanked to the back of the lockers as
she turned the corner. She kicked and screamed as the hands of a big strong man tore off her shirt and began to rip off the
rest of her clothes. He began to strangle her and scream at her to shut up. She continued to fight back and scream but her
voice became parched and she couldn't scream anymore. She still didn't give up. Her last attempt was to pull a set of lockers
down upon him and he lay there motionless and breathless... He was dead. In a fright she ran out the locker rooms to the bus
stop. But she had taken to long and despite her friends? desperate attempt to hold the bus she had been left. She was still
frightened by what had happened and called her mom to come and get her. After telling the shocking story to her mother with
great trouble of reliving the incident, they called the police but when they inspected the scene they only found the pulled
down lockers, the girl's purse and a bath full of blood. The body was nowhere to be found. The girl was more shocked then
ever. She was for sure the man was dead and the amount of blood on the floor was a great loss for him to still be alive. Her
fear was just to great to go back to where she had been raped and strangled and they moved and were never heard of again.
Her friend soon grew knowledge of the incident and couldn't help to feel guilty of what had happen. If only she had waited
a little longer or went back with her, maybe...just maybe she could have helped her. The man was never found but many say
that he still lurks in the locker rooms waiting for an unexpected girl that's by herself to take revenge on for his death.
Many didn't take this seriously until the incident seemed to reoccur when a girl in the band who was to play at a football
game was left by herself to get dressed in. They left her and played all night without noticing she was gone. After the game
had ended she was sitting in the parking lot crying. She wouldn't say what had happened but appeared to have been strangled
and her clothes ripped and covered in blood. She then moved away without telling anyone of her dreadful story. Maybe she met
the ghost and had fought back just like the girl...or maybe not. But what else could explain it. This happened recently in
2001. That's 2 years ago. Many girls have been known to hear footsteps when no one's there, seeming to draw closer and the
sound of lockers seeming to close and shut and the door creaking open as if to let an unwanted stranger in when no one is
there. You might also feel a cold chill come across you and hear loud breathing seeming as if someone is right behind you
but always cease when you turn around.
