This is an entertaining tour of Tennessee and it's history and it's ghosts written and directed by Jim O'Rear. Included is the Bell Witch (An American Haunting) and Green Eyes (monster with a billowing cape) and he battlefields of the Civil War. There is the Orpheum Theater in Memphis where a production of 'Fiddler On The Roof' held a seance after being haunted by a little girl in white. And the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville which is believed to be haunted by music legend Hank Williams and other country singers from the past. Country star Lorrie Morgan tells of a mysterious figure which appears and disappears that is known as the Phantom of the Oprey there. Another haunted Nashville venue is Tootsie's Orchard Lounge where old departed country singers also hang out. And when Lorrie Morgan stabs a finger at the camera and tells us "You'd better believe it!" what else can we do but believe? This documentary deserves a poster and what better than the two presenters slinkily posing on a graveyard memorial as the poster for it? I thought it was a bit irreverent but the image of Debbie Rochon and Sebrina Siegel/Scott lounging on and around the monument stayed with me. Tennessee has got such a wealth of hauntings that this movie has no time to linger too long on any of it's ghostly sites. But chances are you will want to pursue these stories more fully if ghost legends are your thing.
