Tennessee State Capitol

The Tennessee State Capitol, located in Nashville, has its own share of ghostly legends and reported paranormal activity. The most famous ghostly story related to the Tennessee State Capitol involves its architect, William Strickland. He designed and oversaw the construction of the building but passed away before its completion in 1854. Legend has it that Strickland's ghost haunts the capitol, possibly because he was buried in the building's north facade, as per his request. Visitors and employees have claimed to hear footsteps echoing in empty hallways, attributed to Strickland's spirit. Visitors to the Tennessee State Capitol have reported an eerie and unsettling atmosphere, even during daylight hours. Some say they feel as though they are being watched or experience sudden temperature drops in certain areas of the building.
