In More Haunted Tennessee, author Charles Edwin Price recounts the legends of a tunnel he mistakenly calls Sensabaugh Tunnel, in Church Hill, Tennessee. This tunnel on TN-346 (Sensabaugh Hollow Road) was actually called Click Tunnel by the Clinchfield Railroad when it laid tracks in the 1920s, widening the natural tunnel that Click Branch had cut to 608’ with a one-lane road through it.
Price explains that there could be three possible explinations for the mournaful cries and supernatural activity that have taken place in Click Tunnel.
One story relates how the ghost of this tunnel is also a baby who was dropped and accidentally killed by a drifter who had taken up work at a farm in eyeshot of the tunnel when he was fleeing from the homeowner with stolen property.
Another legend tells that the same farmer's daughter was hiding her pregnancy since she was not married. She ran to the tunnel when the labor pains began, and her father followed. When the baby was born, he allegedly drown it in Click Branch.
Yet another story tells that one rainy night a woman with her infant drove into the tunnel and the car died. The next morning, both were found dead. This could be the origin of the belief that if you turn your vehicle off inside the tunnel, it won't start back up again.
[Note: This tunnel is often confused with the nearby Sensabaugh Tunnel, so much so that the stories have become irrevocably intertwined.]
