The Tennessee State Capitol is rumored to be haunted by the spirits of William Strickland and Samuel Morgan, who are said to be eternally arguing due to a feud during the building's construction. Other paranormal reports include hearing strange voices in empty rooms and hallways, as well as sightings of a Confederate soldier and a figure kneeling at President Polk's tomb. The most famous legend claims that the spirits of the building's architect, William Strickland, and Capitol Commission head, Samuel Morgan, continue their dispute from the afterlife. Witnesses have reported hearing loud, heated arguments with yelling and cursing, often starting around 9 PM, though no one is found present. People have heard otherworldly voices and echoing sounds in empty rooms and hallways at night, even when no one is there. A figure, described as a man in a dark suit, has been seen kneeling at the base of the tomb containing the remains of former President James K. Polk and his wife, Sarah. Some stories mention sightings of a Confederate soldier on the grounds.
