Georgia Magazine - October 2024 - 10
EVENTS Calendar
OCTOBER * Compiled by Pamela A. Keene
Ghosts come alive for Halloween in Eatonton
says Chip Bell, curator of the
Georgia Writers Museum.
" Perhaps our most famous,
Sylvia, typically makes an
appearance in Panola Hall,
her former childhood home.
Still dressed in her wedding
gown, it's said that she threw
herself out of her bedroom
window to avoid marrying a
man she didn't love. But the
stories don't stop there. "
Panola Hall, an Antebellum Greek Revival home, holds
another secret.
" A mysterious tunnel to nowhere in the home's basement
Ghostly forms peering out of second-story windows?
Children's laughter heard in Eatonton's 100-year-old schoolhouse?
Two small children playing in the town's old cemetery?
These and other mysteries will unfold at Haunted
Eatonton's Ghost Tours tours Oct. 24-26 through the
storytelling of author Ann Hite.
" Eatonton has its share of ghosts and haunted sites, "
has kept locals guessing for decades, " Bell says. " No one knows
why it was built or where it led, but all of a sudden it just stops. "
The two-hour tours feature 10 stops during the 1-mile walk
through historic downtown Eatonton.
