North Carolina Haunted Houses
North Carolina, nicknamed the "Old North State." When Carolina was divided in 1710, the southern part was called South
Carolina and the northern, or older settlement, North Carolina, which is where this nickname came from. Historians
have recorded that the principle products during the early history of North Carolina were "tar, pitch, and
turpentine." It was during one of the fiercest battles of the War Between the States, so the story goes, that
the column supporting the North Carolina troops was driven from the field. After the battle the North Carolinians,
who had successfully fought it out alone, were greeted from the passing derelict regiment with the question:
"Any more tar down in the Old North State, boys?" Quick as a flash came the answer: "No, not a bit, old Jeff's
bought it all up." "Is that so; what is he going to do with it?" was asked. "He's going to put on you-un's heels
to make you stick better in the next fight." Creecy relates that General Lee, upon hearing of the incident, said:
"God bless the "Tar Heel" boys," and from that they took the name.
No matter what you call this southern state, many haunted houses call this state their home.
