The old storage building, the Linville Cabin near the Appalachian Caverns in Blountville, Tennessee was the inspiration for the book title, The Marble and Other Ghost Tales of Tennessee and Virginia by Joe Tennis. The author writes that the house was probably built in 1777 and was a private residence until 2005. Afterwards, some people reported seeing a shadowy figure walking about the house by candlelight. But, Joe Tennis and many others believe there is another ghost there, one of a little boy wearing dated clothes who likes to play with period marbles. The boy is said to be present when what sounds like a marble rolls across the floor.
