Abstract

The article "Ghosts of the Natchez Trace" provides an overview of the Natchez Trace, a historic road stretching from Nashville, Tennessee to Natchez, Mississippi. Initially used for trade, the road also attracted criminals such as the Harpe brothers. The article also mentions the construction of the Natchez Trace Parkway and its preservation efforts by the Daughters of the American Revolution. The parkway, completed in 2005, is known for its scenic beauty and historical significance, with various sites along the road telling stories of explorers, alleged monsters, and haunted spirits. Despite upgrades, the parkway still maintains an eerie and isolated atmosphere. [Extracted from the article]
