The Ghostly Horse and Buggy in Denver, North Carolina
Grassy Creek Road is a cut-through road near Highway 16. It ends at the Cross-Country Campground on Highway 150, which is said to be haunted by a ghost horse and buggy.
Down the road, a little way, there used to be a patch of woods off to the right. Legend says a man was riding a horse one night and came across a phantom rider on a buggy pulled by two horses. The apparition appeared to be driving through the woods and trees, reportedly crossing in front of the man on his horse, spooking his horse before disappearing into the night.
No one knows why the specter appeared or who the person is, but an ancient cemetery dating to the 1800s may hold a clue.
