urban legends

i was just curious what type of stories are from your parts of the country.....i was reading about san antonio's donkey lady and got to thinking about some of the things i grew up hearing about....like the devil worshipers on cody rd. which is just an old country back road that floods out real easy right where a train passes overhead.......or the pope lick monster down in either lexington or louisville...half man half sheep...part yeti or something....
hang lady bridge where a lady was killed and strung up under this bridge that runs over a creek and then found by kids and if you go there and call to her she will "get" you....by far the most famous around here is this though...one of the murders that took place here resulted in the last public hanging in ky. if you like country music its a good place to have a few and if you like to fight its a good place to find one

Bill should be here pretty soon

Not too much in Ohio, I know of the Gore Orphanage and thw Witches Ball and also that prison in Mansfield. BUT when I was in Tenn. this summer my friends and I went to an old park late at night and we ere jsut messing around with our camera taking pics, and after one on the screen showed a huge cloud of smoke with a face in it. Ask Bill, he has seen it, it was freaky.

Yes, shawshank redemption and a couple other movies was filmed there. A instructor at my college takes people there, prison in Mansfield known as a reformitory, a couple times a year. I went during the day and it was just erie (sp). I guess you can also spend the night, which I guess is really scary.

There is an urban legend in my town from 1960 or something. These 4 teens used to play chicken with trains at a track crossing where they could jump it with their cars, still can. At 12:?? they were hit by a train killing all 4. Two of the teens were decapitated and their heads were never found, by police etc. (So far this is true). Supposedly, if it's a clear night and you crest the hill the tracks are on and look to the left you will see a wrecked car and 2 severed heads. Now I may be a little off, but I am certain it was atleast 2 heads.

Over on Prospect St in Fremont there is a house with an Opaque garage door. The guy that lives there had a GIANT cross that you could see thru the door. But since the door is opaque and not clear it showed up as BLACK. So all us kids thought he was a devil worshipper. This is in Clyde BTW where Jason lives...

We have the Headless Motorcyclist in Elmore... Some websites claim its in lindsey but they are just stupid. If it was in lindsey it surely wouldnt be the Elmore Headless Motorcyclist!! D'uh!

Also, in Clyde supposedly the house that General MacPherson, highest ranking officer to die for Union in Civil War, lived in is haunted. As far as I know they no longer do tours through the house.

Well Oklahoma is home to Bigfoot, whom has been seen in the OKlahoma City limits in a park in Edmond, a suburb just north of the city. It was a cold, snowy evening, two teens smoochin while the snow fell. then an aweful odor came though the vents, a loud screech, then the car moved, the young man turned just in time to see a large, hairy, gorilla like being leaving the scene. He started up his car and took off toward the police station...he brought back the cops to the place of the attack, and the snow covered up the tracks of what is supposed to be......BIGFOOT
