Murder and Mystery Inside the Wilkes Tunnel
During the Civil War era, there was a murder committed inside the Wilkes Tunnel. The entire investigation left law enforcement officers baffled since there was no evidence.
Today, legend has it that you can feel a cold, eerie sensation in the same spot the murder took place.
Locals also report strange noises and possible spirits wandering inside the tunnel at night. We just had to add it to our Alexandria Ghost Tour with all that hype.
