Tunnels and bridges aren't just ways to get somewhere, but they are riddled with dark histories. Let's take an extensive look at the troublesome tunnels first -  Sensabaugh Tunnel, Kingsport, TN The legend goes that a man named Sensabaugh lived near the tunnel with his family.  It is said that he killed his entire family and threw their bodies into the creek within the tunnel.  If you enter the tunnel and turn off your car engine, it supposedly will not restart and if you look into your rearview mirror, you will see Mr. Sensabaugh approaching your car.  Then, as he approaches, your engine will start again.
