The Old Barfoot House
Located in the city of Troy, the hauntings of the Old Barfoot House are said to date back to 1899 when Tom Johnson was hung from the gallows that at the time were located in front of the house.  Johnson was hung at the turn of the 20th century after he was convicted for the ax murder of two elderly widows.  During the 1930s, residents of the house claim seeing a frightening apparition of man with dark hair dressed in black pants and a white shirt, believed to be Johnson.  Allegedly, family members would often wake to find the ghost standing at the foot of their bed staring at them or see him walking through the house towards a back bedroom before he would disappear.
Note: The Barfoot House is currently a private residence and permission from the owners must be obtained before entering the premises.

Graystone Manor
Graystone Manor was built in the early 1900s by Dr. Vanburen Graystone for his family.  Dr. Graystone began experimenting on the bodies of his deceased clients and after the deaths of his son and wife (who passed away under strange circumstances), he became obsessed with death.  After townsfolk began to mysteriously disappear, it was found that Dr. Graystone had murdered the citizens to satisfy his lust and satiate his obsession.  Residents stormed Graystone Manor and burned it to the ground with the doctor inside.
Many years later, a  Graystone descendant decided to rebuild the mansion in order to open it as a museum and clear the family name.  However, during the construction, strange and unexplainable things began to happen.  Lights would flicker and equipment would randomly turn off and on even when unplugged, and screams could be heard coming from inside the building.
Today, Graystone Manor is not a museum but rather one of the scariest haunted houses in the country.  Covering more than 30,000 square feet, Graystone Manor is actually a PG-13 rated attraction because of its extreme intensity, gore, and realism.  The Graystone Manor is truly only for those who can handle true terror!

The University of Alabama
Parts of the University of Alabama in Tuscaloosa are believed to be haunted.  The ghost of a former professor of geology is said to still haunt Smith Hall.  For the past quarter of a century, students and professors have reported hearing mysterious footsteps and ghostly voices of children.   
Little Round House, also known as the Jason Shire on campus, is also said to be haunted.  In 1865, three Union soldiers were discovered and killed by a student while searching for whiskey.  Later, the building become home to the Jasons, a senior fraternity known for their painful initiations.  It’s believed their initiation rituals have caused the ghosts of the Union soldiers to return and haunt the house.
