A Figure in the Fog
The church has been the source of many ghostly sightings. Guests have reported seeing shadowy figures, feeling restless energy within the church, and even seeing the apparitions of priests.
Part of the unnerving ambiance comes from the setting itself, in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. Known for the heavy fog that blankets the entire area, the natural world presents an eerie backdrop. It’s hard to tell if it’s a figure in the fog or a ghostly congregant…
An International Attraction
The church offers service to worshippers from all across the globe. It is frequented by people from all walks of life, each with unique stories and motivations.
The many travelers fill the church hall with a unique energy, posing the question of how many have stood at that same spot and how many were saints or sinners.
Our stop at the First United Methodist Church takes you deeper into the world of this close-knit community, with family feuds going back decades. With a tradition of witchcraft looming over the city, it’s easy to assume that the church is a haven, but this could be far from the truth.
