creepy..i really want to go and see that! oh man..i love that crap..being scared...i gotta find a bridge or place like that near me! got a picture of the bridge?
 

Oh it is freaky when you turn on the road you can jsut fell something and on this road all the homes are old slave bording houses
 
I lived in a haunted house in college. It was very freaky. We had a ton of things happen...Little girls singing in the night and then screaming, I saw a reflection of her rocking in a chair in an upstairs bedroom, a broom fell over in the kitchen and started spinning on the floor, lots of echoing, the light in the upstairs room where the girl was seen came on every night when noone was up in the room. Very very freaky stuff. I was never a fan of being in that house by myself.
 
When the wife lived at home, their house was haunted. What they would do is leave a glass of water on the counter, in the morning it would be in the middle of the floor upside down and the water would be all over the wall. She has told me other stories about that house. living here in the northeast, living in a house that is a couple hundred years old is prety common. I think the chimney stone on that house says 184?.

I want to go to this bridge, I am so interested in this stuff.

Another one is, there is a island in Boston Harbor named Georges Island, and has a old civil war base on it, it is haunted by the "woman in black" I will look for a good link.

Well now I guess its a good thing :mrgreen: that other people have experienced ghost and I'm not nutcase
 
Ya'LL would trip out around where I live. > We have entire haunted areas. lol

One is called the Cypress Swamps, there is a tree there that was a hanging tree (suppposedly). >It is a big mulitbranched tree, and it has red markes on the trunk. > I hate it. This is where my jeep got stuck in the dark during hurricane isabel. I had to walk that swamp with my cellphone backlight. By that tree, I thought I would die!

We have another called the Pocomoke Haunted forest, its full of cemetaries, witch houses with dead people in it, bridges, and whatnots. < There are so many stories of that around there.

We gots haunted churchs too, if that is your thing. Floating bibles and candles. lol

We dont have any haunted area's around here.....closest ghost spot is the ghost towns out in the desert.I love getting my heart pumped, nights spent walking in the brush is perdy good way.especialy when you stop and here brush breaking behind you! :shock:
 

We used to go to the covered bridge a couple (ahem) years back. I never really had any "ghost encounters" until one night Me and a buddy took our girlfriends there and my buddies girlfriend started busting on how lame it was and that there were no such things as ghosts. Seconds later we heard a child screaming, and I mean screaming like in agony - like nothing I had ever heard before. It was so loud it sounded like he/she was in the car. I have to admit it freaked me out. We tore off outta there with my old Chevy's tires doing some screaming of their own! :shock: I can't say I ever saw anything that time either, but we didn't stick around very long. You guys have fun, just don't add to any of the history there! :wink:

Carol Ann, Carol Ann! Don't go into the light! :lol:
