Summary

Huntsville is the most populated city in Alabama, and it also may have the most ghost stories in the state. From the ghosts of civil war soldiers held prisoner at a train depot to ghosts of an old governor rising from his grave, the tales vary. If that's not scary enough envision a swing moving on it's own within the cemetery at a place the locals call "The Dead Children's Playground."
