In the early 1940s, the renowned Tuskegee Airmen prepared for the war at Tuskegee Army Airfield in the heart of Macon County, Alabama. The Airmen are known for their sterling battle record and stories of courage, but few know of the darker details shrouding the airfield.

Legend has it the lost souls of pilots in training haunt the airfield to this day. On a gusty night, some say faint screams are carried through the wind. Others swear they can hear diluted sounds of fallen planes haunting the field.

Macon County is full of legends, and where legends tread the supernatural is sure to follow. Had an encounter with the paranormal? Experienced a haunting? Seen a ghost?
