👻 Happy Halloween

The scariest stories from around the Upstate
Halloween in Greenville

It’s Halloween (aka City Editor Stephanie’s favorite day of the year) and we have some frighteningly fiendish locations to help you get in the spirit.

🕷 Embassy Suites Hotel | 670 Verdae Blvd., Greenville

Supposedly lights turn on and off on their own, and during construction, lights would come on even though the building had no electricity yet. Disembodied wailing has also been reported.

🕷 Gassaway Mansion | 106 Dupont Dr., Greenville

The original owner of the house, Walter Gassaway, was a stock broker and died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound on the front lawn when the stock market crashed during the Great Depression. It is said his ghost haunts the grounds and the mansion itself.

🕷 Crybaby Bridge | 2806 High Shoals Rd., Anderson

Rumor has it that this historic truss bridge in rural Anderson is haunted by a crying baby + their mother who walks the bridge searching for the child at night.
