Old Green Eyes
A Civil War Legend
The Story...
The "Old Green Eyes" legend originated in Tennessee near the Chickamauga Battlefield. During the civil war, many people lost their lives or wandered away somewhere else broken and changed.
"Old Green Eyes," was a Confederate soldier whose head was the only part of his body found after the dust settled. The legend says that if you walk the fields of the Chickamauga Battlefield at night, you can see a pair of glowing green eyes or a beast like creature with fangs and stringy waist long hair following you around.
