Ghost of Kill Devil Hills
There used to be a wonderful old house in Kill Devil Hills that was built around 1939 and was a Coast Guard station. The last owner was a lady who loved Kill Devil Hills and donated land for the use of building the schools and the town hall. This building had a tower on top that looked like a airport flight control tower and this eccentric lady always kept a Christmas tree in that tower year round and it was always lit. Locals and visitors for years always looked at this amazing building and felt like we were home when we first saw it if we were among the visitors. The House was torn down in 2003 despite valiant efforts to save it.
Everyone who has seen this piece loves it and it brings back the memories of a place that touched our hearts and souls.
This incident is a perfect reason to fight for old buildings that not only contain History but live in the SOULS of those around them.
