Answer 4

We have a train tussle and it supposedly haunted b/c of teens falling off of it or getting hit by a train, or people jumping because of personal problems.

There is also goat man. Supposedly, a boy and his goat were on the other feuding family's land and both got killed. Now, people say that there is a half boy, half goat monster thing.

There is also of course Waverley Hills. It was a TB hospitial until the early 1900s. Now, people say that there are tons of ghosts there.

Now, I'm getting goose bumps!

Answer 5

The curse of William Penn. None of our professional teams have won the highest championship (super bowl, world series, NBA finals, etc) since the first building that was taller than city hall was erected.

Back in the day, I think it was law that no building could be taller than the statue of william penn, who's statue sits atop of city hall.

one that EVERYONE in houston knows is the haunting of 'the spaghetti warehouse' . it's in downtown houston and it's haunted by a guy who fell down the elevator shaft...a lot of people have said they have seen him and it's a restaurant so sometimes utensils fly, plates break and the sinks in the restrooms turn on and off by themselves.

Answer 9

I live in San Francisco. Across the Bay in Berkeley in the 1930's, a man in a car saw a girl with an armload of books standing at the trolley stop after they had quit running. He offered to take her home, since it could be dangerous for a girl to be out alone so late. She told him her father was a professor at UC and gave him an address at the edge of campus. Then, she entered the car and sat in the back seat. When he reached the address she gave, he turned and saw she was gone, but her books were on the seat. He went to the house to return the books. The professor arose at last and came to the door. He told the man that his daughter was killed by a hit and run driver at the spot where he saw her standing several years earlier and that many men had tried to bring her home. The books she had were missing from the bookcase. A similar tale is set in 1920's Los Angeles 405 miles south of San Francisco. Miyuki is from japan and has heard ancient and modern versions of this "Vanishing Hitch Hiker" type of UL.

Answer 12

So there once was a bus full of school children, the kids were like 5 or 6 years old. They were driving over some train tracks when the bus got stuck. Train didn't stop, the bus driver and all the little kids died.

People have tried this: if you drive over to that spot, park your car on the tracks, the ghosts of the kids will push the car, not wanting you to have the same fate they had. if you put white powder on the back of the car, you'll see tiny little hand prints on the car.
