The Gray Man of Pawleys Island - Real Pawleys Island Haunt

The Gray Man of Pawleys Island is a ghost who likes to roam the beach area to warn people of storms that are coming. Stories say that he was a man who was traveling to see his fiancé, but on his way, his horse sunk into mud in the marshes of Pawleys Island. He died and his spirit is believed to still be searching for his love. He has been spotted dressed in gray, with a long coat and scarf. He has been appearing since 1822, and was seen right before Hurricane Florence in 2018.
