Places Haunted in Watauga County
The Mexican restaurant called Tijuana Fats in Blowing Rock is a popular place for both locals and tourists. Some people go for the food, others go to hear the tale of the resident ghost the employees have dubbed 'Mary'.
Those who have seen Mary say she looks no older than 7 but no younger than 4. They describe her as having strawberry blonde, curly hair and wearing a petticoat. It's rare that Mary shows herself to people, and then it's only to a select few. Some of the staff of Tijuana Fats have seen her, but more often that not it's children who get to see her.
