Admit that you are still chilled by the scary stories of your youth. Every child has heard stories about maniacs, ghosts and alien abductions. And all these stories are of course true, because happened to no one but a friend of your cousin's girl friend. Is there little evidence?
10. The Suscon Screamer
If anything more creepy than a dead bride? I think no. Stories about these unfortunates can be found in any country.
Suscon Road is a road in Pennsylvania, where the Susquehanna Railroad Bridge is also located. There are many legends associated with this place. Locals say that if you come to this place, turn off the engine, put the keys on the roof of the car and wait a little, then you can see the so-called "the Suscan Screamer" in the rearview mirror who screams).
Most of the stories boil down to the fact that this is the ghost of a woman who was abandoned right at the altar and then committed suicide on this bridge. It is also said that when she jumped off the bridge, she let out a shrill cry.
In another version, a certain creature with membranes on the feet, large claws and a huge head appears. Maybe someone should ask this dead bride what it was like when she sat in the back seat?
9. Lillian Gray
The story begins with a headstone in the center of a cemetery in Salt Lake City, Utah. It "belongs" to a woman named Lillian E. Gray, who died in the 1950s at the age of 77. At first glance, this tombstone is no different from the rest, until you stumble upon the inscription "Sacrifice of the Beast 666".
Now it is alarming. What can this mysterious inscription mean? Maybe this is some kind of accusation of believers in one of the most religious cities in the country? Could she have been sacrificed for a satanic cult? Maybe she worshiped the devil herself? Or was she the victim of a witch hunt? But, all these are just rumors that intrigued residents came up with to explain this.
And as always, there will be someone who will come and ruin everything. The inscription was ordered by a paranoid husband who hated the government and blamed the police for his wife's death. It's hard to say if that makes the story any less horrible, but that's how it was.
8. Ghost Stow Lake
The Golden Gate Park in San Francisco, California is known for its paranormal stories. If you believe the locals, then it is teeming with spirits, and you run the risk of bumping into one of them while doing yoga. With the same success this park could be called "Park of the Undead".
But one ghost story was especially popular. It was published in the San Francisco Chronicle on January 6, 1908. This is a Stow Lake ghost story. Newspaper publication begins with Arthur Pidgin's name. He drove along the road, slightly exceeding the speed limit. He was stopped by a policeman. Arthur said that it was not his fault, he had to drive fast in order to leave the lake as soon as possible.
He saw the ghost of a woman. She had long blonde hair and no shoes on her feet, and legends say that she was a mother who lost her child, or even killed and then committed suicide. Yeah, of course, it was impossible to think of a better excuse for your violation …
7. Gates of Hell
Bobby Mackey's Music World is a popular bar in Wilder, Kentucky. The owner of this establishment is country performer Bobby Mackey. Three legends are associated with this place, which became so popular that the building is put up for sale.
First. There are the gates of hell, which allow demons to enter our world. It is not yet clear why he is coming. Maybe they really like country or beer.
The other two stories are more traditional. The first is about Pearl Brian, a real-life pregnant woman who was found decapitated in the late 19th century. Her lover Scott Jackson and his friend Alonso Walling were hanged for her murder.
The second legend is that of a woman named Joanna who is said to have fallen in love with a singer at a club. Her angry father allegedly hanged her lover in the locker room, causing Joanna to commit suicide by poisoning. Bobby McKay wrote a song about the incident, which suggests that the girl is still stalking him in this bar.
6. Patterson Road
In Houston, Texas, there are numerous urban legends associated with memories of the Civil War. One of the creepiest is associated with Patterson Road, which is located next to Highway 6. All the locals agree that the ghosts that inhabit it were soldiers of the Civil War.
Those who believe it say that if you arrive at Langham Creek Bridge on Patterson Road at night and turn off the lights, you will hear a banging sound or the car will plunge into fog. More skeptical locals point out that parking a car with the lights off on a busy bridge would be a good opportunity to become a ghost yourself.
5. Goat man
Many stories are often made up by adults to scare children when they misbehave. Anyone who grew up in a Mexican family is familiar with this parenting method, and perhaps many still fear El Cucuy.
The stories seem to have been invented by silly older brothers who are always trying to scare the younger ones. For example, the story of the goat man in Beltsville, Maryland. There is no official version of this legend, but most claim that a scientist at Beltsville Agricultural Research Center experimented with goats. And this somehow led to the fact that he himself partially became a goat, such, you know, a hybrid of man and animal.
4. The Snallygaster
In the 1830s, immigrants in Frederick County, Maryland claimed to have stumbled upon a terrible creature. Soon, having founded a city on this site, residents began to report their sightings of the beast, which was half bird, half reptile with a metal beak and razor-sharp teeth.
He also had octopus tentacles, with which he grabbed people and carried them with him to feed his cubs of lizard-squid.
When you hear this story for the first time, without mentioning the nickname of this creature - Snelligaster, you can easily mock. The plot of this story was overgrown with new details as residents reported their "observations" from New Jersey to Ohio. But let's not find fault with these states, where every second uses drugs
3. Green man
This is perhaps the only story on this list that involves a real person with truly gruesome details. In the Koppel, Pennsylvania area, one can easily find a horribly disfigured man who wandered the dark streets at night. He was nicknamed "Charlie without a face" or "green man" and each has its own story of meeting him.
This is because he really existed! Raymond Robinson, born in 1910, at the age of eight tried to look into a bird's nest on the bridge, but an accident occurred. He touched a power line that shocked him, causing horrific facial injuries that would last forever.
As it happens, such an appearance caused panic in people, the children began to cry, so for almost all 74 years, Robinson hid from people at home, and went out for walks at night. He became a living legend, and some people even went for a ride at night in order to have at least one eye look at him.
2. Boy-dog
Quitman, Arkansas is another place full of ghost stories. Most houses have their own history, and it takes a lot of work to stand out from “this crowd”. And such a story takes place. Here it is - the legend of the boy-dog.
In 1954, Floyd and Allyn Bettis had a son, Gerald. By the way, this house is called the house of the Betties. Those who knew him in his youth claim that he caught dogs and cats, kept them at home, tortured and killed them mercilessly. But what he is really known for is that he kept his parents imprisoned in the attic for years. He was arrested after his father died.
Gerald himself died in prison from a drug overdose. Since then, people have claimed that paranormal activities have occurred in their home. Flickering lights, strange sounds and moving objects. Considering Gerald threw his father out of the window, it seems unsurprising that there are ghosts there.
1. Coal Man
The famous California urban legend has its origins in the Ojai Valley, Camp Park. They say that the spirit of a man lives there, who was burned alive, and now he suddenly appears from the forest and attacks cars and tourists. They call him the coal man.
There are several versions of the origin of the "coal" man, but they all begin with forest fires that occurred in the park in 1948. The main version is that the father and son were held hostage by the fire. The father died in the fire, and the son survived. When the rescue team arrived at the scene, they found that the son had hung up his father and pulled off his skin. At the sight of the firefighters, the son disappeared into the forest.
Another story tells about a married couple who also became a victim of a fire, and tells us that a young man, who also fell into the power of fire, suffered very badly and, moreover, went mad, because he could not help his wife, who screamed for help.
And yet, as usual, people say that if you come to this park, stop on the bridge and get out of the car, the Coal Man will come out to you. A horribly burned person will bump into you and try to flay your skin.
