Eternal Enemies | Old Gray Cemetery, Knoxville TN
Description
Step into Old Gray Cemetery with The Grim as host Kristin explores Knoxville's most atmospheric Victorian burial ground—where feuds, tragedy, and restless spirits linger beneath ancient trees.
Founded in 1850 and named for poet Thomas Gray, this 13-acre garden cemetery holds the stories of Tennessee's most influential figures: Governor William "Parson" Brownlow, diplomat Horace Maynard, suffragist Lizzie Crozier French, and General Lawrence D. Tyson. But tragedy also marks these grounds—from the 1854 cholera epidemic to the devastating 1904 New Market train collision.
Discover the haunting legends: the Lady in White, the ominous Black Aggie, dueling gunmen whose spirits never made peace, and the restless dead of Knoxville's most notorious feuds.
A journey through Appalachian ghost lore, Civil War conflict, and Victorian mourning art—where history and haunting walk hand in hand.
