Not all haunted spots in Fayetteville are so obvi- ous. A man in orange has been spotted on numerous occasions at the Subway Restaurant located on Hay Street. It is located in what was once the Atlantic Coastline Depot, where thousands of soldiers left Fayetteville to fight in wars from World War I to Vi- etnam. Carolyn Genna, who has worked at the Sub- way for several years, said she has never seen the man in orange, but a past employee told her that he had seen him. Though she has never seen the man in or- ange she has had her own chilling experiences while working there. "On several occasions I have been here by myself at night and heard moaning over and over again. I looked around and could not find anyone at all," she said. Genna said an incident has taken place that has had caused her to freeze in place behind the counter "We have a radio playing in here all the time. Several times I have been here alone and the radio has stopped playing and all of the sudden I heard an old-fashioned telephone ringing over and over again. I admit I could not move. It finally stopped and the radio came back on." If you want to delve into more Fayetteville ghost stories, the annual Historic Hauntings tour will give you an evening of chills intertwined with some his- tory. "Along with ghost stories we include history of Fayetteville. It is a unique opportunity for chil- dren to learn some history and see it first hand," said King. The event is held as a fundraiser for the Dogwood Festival. Each year the script changes and different places are visited and many guests like to take the tour year after year. Even if you are still a skeptic, the tour is a great way to enjoy a fall evening and get a glimpse of Fayetteville from days gone by. Who knows? Maybe you'll be the one who spots the man in orange.
