The late-1800s house across the street from the cemetery, according to local folklore, was long ago the home of a young girl who was beaten and starved to death by her parents. **The house is private property; please respect the current owners’ privacy.** The girl is said to have been buried in the cemetery. Folks have heard the sounds of beatings coming from the house and experienced strange mechanical things happening to their cars as they pass by or visit the cemetery.

Look for Drucillas grave….you will hear her cries for help…in the back at the edge of the woods..
There is also a spirit of an old Confederate Soldier that is said to haunt the grounds. You can hear them speaking to you.

Where are you getting your information? The legend of Drucilla’s grave has nothing to do with a child being beaten. The Drucilla legend is about a woman who was wrongly accused of being a witch and was hanged for witchcraft. According to legend, it was actually her sister who was the witch.
I have lived here my entire life and I’ve NEVER heard the story of a little girl being beaten to death.
