I live near Gaffney S.C..I remember the Gaffney strangler and the Gaffney shooter. I was 12 years old when the Gaffney strangler arrived, we were all afraid, afraid when the shooter showed up too. The strangler he follow me and my brother while we we're walking the neighborhood one day and we ran home, I will never forget what he looked like. This was before we heard of any murders. My mom and I was watching the news when they caught him and I told my mom that is the man that followed us, car too. I just thank God my brother was with me..The strangler killed a 12 or 14 year old little girl, he showed up at her house to view her body and stood by someone and said this is just awful. The lady who he killed who was arguing with her husband she called a cab and the strangler was a part time cab driver, that is what I was told. He worked in the mill. People couldn't believe he did this.
I love it here...I've lived in an around here all my life. Holler if ya need ideas of best communities or more in the Battleground area and if you need to decide the best school locations
My mother was almost 9 months pregnant with me when Leroy Martin followed behind her closely down from Robinette’s store on Cherokee Ave and River Drive. My grandfather worked in the mill with him and he knew my family. I’ll never forget the stories my mother and grandparents told me of this.
I lived in Gaffney and I was 12 years old when this happened. Nancy Rhinehart went to the same elementary school I attended. I felt sorry for her. Many of the kids picked on her and made fun of her. She led a sad life.
That's awful. I would love to talk to you sometime about her. We been working on the family tree and she was my husband's 2nd cousin but no information about her at all.
Wow watching this somehow when I went to make a comment I got logged out!! lol, just wanted to say, Haunted echoes is great they keep to the real thing I like it. Keep up the good work guys im a subscriber
Y'all want some ghost stories come across the river to Blacksburg SC to Cherokee Falls where my granny's and poppa's old house is haunted and come find out about booger Jim.
@Save4Jesus I'm very familiar with that area as well. Still learning more about it tho. Thanks for jogging my memory...lol..I prefer reading and collecting the books on subjects such as these...then going to visit and see if anything else arises from within...lol
Kenneth Rumsey who killed Martin in prison was my granmother's brother.He was a very friendly person.You just did not rub him the wrong way.I stayed away from Kenneth and his other brothers for my own safety.He hung himself in prison.
FYI....those weren't bullfrogs... they're tree frogs. Bullfrogs croak, tree frogs sound like that. Also if you'd shined bright lights you likely would've seen their eyes.
I live in Gaffney now. My mom rode with him in the cab. She wasnt fat nor ugly. But very lucky. I guess cause she wasnt young as he wanted. Or it wasn't the right time for him. And her ex husband was a mail man and seen him washing blood of his car. He tried to tell people but they didn't believe.
you gotta go in the winter. since the wildlife is silent. just like me and my two kids went last night. and i gotta say we seen orbs of yellow light, heard something like moans (could have been a dog in the distance) and my daughter got pic of something very strange on her phone.

this is stupid this people never talk to the gaffney stranglers kids who are still alive and Leroy was possessed by a demon he was not a ed gein or charles manson that so leave the story alone these guys have no right when they didn't even talk to his wife or kids that's wrong I know the stranglers kids they don't like anything talked about their father the mam cremated so don't bother on where he is buried . so any television movie anything is getting cut off when his kids get done .
Hello, I'm very interested in talking to Lee Roy Martin's family or at least finding out about his family. I am currently doing research for a class and for journalistic pursuit. Is there anything you can tell me about his family or any way I could contact them?
The Rhinehart girl was my husband's 2nd cousin and FACTS are being attached to her information on Ancestry DNA. We have no I'll will towards the family and in fact my oldest daughter is the wife of one of his cousins.
I lived in Gaffney and was in the 4th grade. We were all scared. Enjoyed the video.

Yeah I heard he offered to walk out many women from the mill getting off work, so they would be safe. The whole time it was himself.
A sad point in South Carolina history. Love these videos, can't wait for the next.
