Falls Park on the Reedy

A scenic urban park featuring a 60-foot waterfall on the Reedy River in downtown Greenville. The park includes the iconic Liberty Bridge and beautiful gardens.

Falls Park on the Reedy, one of Greenville's most beautiful public spaces, carries paranormal legends connected to the area's industrial past. Before the park was created, the site was home to textile mills where workers toiled in dangerous conditions. The spirits of mill workers, including children who labored in the factories, are said to linger near the falls. Visitors have reported seeing figures in period work clothes near the water's edge, particularly at dusk. The sounds of machinery have been heard near the falls, echoing the mills that once harnessed the water's power. Some visitors have reported cold spots on the Liberty Bridge, even on warm summer evenings. The falls themselves have been the site of tragic drownings over the years, and some believe these victims' spirits remain. Ghost tours in Greenville often include the park, sharing stories of the workers and residents whose lives were shaped by the Reedy River. Paranormal investigators have captured unexplained images and EVPs near the falls, suggesting that the natural beauty of the park coexists with supernatural activity.
