The Ghostly Woman of the Waccamaw River

The Waccamaw River in Conway, South Carolina, is known for a bone-chilling ghostly story. Legend says that a woman perished in these waters many years ago by drowning, and she is rumored to walk still, or in this case, float along this stretch of the river today in search of her lost love on misty evenings.
