Berry College
: "CCC Road - aka Seven Bridges Road - On the northern side of Berry College, there is a road - CCC Road, when you go west, if you count the small bridges as you go over them, there are seven, turn around, count them on the way out, there are only six. At the west end of the road are the ruins of an old church and cemetery called Mountain Springs Church. You can hear music coming from the church at night along with crying and footsteps in the cemetery. - October 2004 update: this is a dirt road and it is blocked of to visitors with no permission."
Berry College 's The Road between the new & old campus
: "On the road between the main campus of Berry College and the new mountain campus, the 2-mile road is bordered by woods on both sides. In the days before there was a mountain campus, students from Berry would go up into the woods to fool around. One such couple who attended Berry in the ''40''s is the subject of a tragic accident that occurred at Berry. After making love, the young man and young woman got into an argument, and the boy left his girlfriend in the woods to walk home alone while he drove. After driving a little while, he felt sorry and turned around to pick her up. On the way back, he wasn''t paying attention to the road and he hit something. Assuming it was a deer, he got out to look--and it was his lover! She was dead. To this day, students at Berry say that if you go to the spot on the road where the girl died (it is not a bridge) and say, "Green lady, green lady, green lady" that a pale green light will appear in the trees. This is her spirit."
Berry College
: "Tower Between East And West Mary Girl''s Dorms - Between the dorms of East Mary and West Mary on the Berry College campus is a tower that has stood there ever since the college opened almost a century ago. It is said that a student at Berry hung herself up in the tower and was not found for days. No one knows why she killed herself. The room in which she died is now locked, but you can go to the door. It is inexplicably could in the tower, even during the hot Georgia month of August, and it is said that if you wait there long enough in the dark, you can hear her crying--her last cries--just before ending her life."

: "While walking the horse trails back by the old watermill, a man in full historically dated costume has been seen walking. He will glare at you but not say anything. He disappears when you look back at him."
