Haunted Vacations: Test Some Haunted Legends
A little south of San Antonio, Texas, in a regular neighborhood near the San Juan
Mission, there is an intersection between a road and a railroad track where an
unfortunate accident occurred in which a few children were killed. Legend has it that,
back in the thirties or forties, a school bus full of kids stalled on the railroad tracks at
this intersection. A speeding train crashed into the bus, killing ten kids and the driver.
Since then, it has been said that if a car is stopped on these tracks, then it will be
pushed to safety by some unseen force. Apparently, it is the children tat push stopped
cars to prevent an accident like theirs. Numerous people have experimented with this
claim and all have had the same result, they say. First, the driver puts the car in neutral
or turns off the engine all together about 20 to 30 yards from the tracks. Then, the car
magically slowly starts to roll up the incline of the road towards the tracks. As the
vehicle picks up speed, it rolls over the tracks and down the other side. Talcum or baby
powder has been sprinkled over the back of vehicle testing the legend, and small finger
and hand prints have been found once the vehicle reached safety. Find legends like this,
on your own, and explore them. Want another idea? Why not visit Mexico and the Day
of the Dead Festival!
Haunted Vacations: Visit Haunted Lighthouses
The New London Ledge Lighthouse in New London Harbor, Connecticut was built in
1909. It is supposed to be haunted by a man named Ernie. In 1936, when Ernie found out
that his wife left him for the Block Island Ferry captain, Ernie jumped from the roof of
the lighthouse to his death. His ghost now haunts the lighthouse. He has been known to
open and close doors, turn off televisions, wash the decks, turn the fog horn on and off,
and untie secured boats to let them drift off into the sea. See Haunted Lighthouses.
Haunted Vacations: Explore Old Theaters?
The Welden Theatre in St. Albans, Vermont, has had some strange occurrences.
This theatre was built over an old jail. The projection booths have especially been
strange. Voices have been heard in the booths. Movies start by themselves. In the
basement, which is filled with old jai cells, people have felt like they were being
watch and also saw a man in a white sweater. This man is said to be an old
homeless man who had moved into the basement years ago. After dying, he
continues to walk around the basement. The basement doors fly open, even after
being latched. Lastly, doors that say, “Alarm will sound when opened,” have been
found open, with no alarm sounding. Investigate Theatre Ghosts.
Haunted Pubs & Bars? Join a Haunted Pub Crawl
In the western part of Duluth, Minnesota, in the Spirit Valley, there is a place called
Charlie’s Club. The building was built in the late 1800’s and was originally four
stories high, but is now only one story due to a fire. By the west door there are some
billiard tables. By these tables, people say they or their pool stick were brushed,
touched, or pushed while there was no one around them. This bar is known for being
haunted by an old woman who only appears in front of men; usually these men are
employees of the bar. People who work there say they have heard the bathroom and
security doors slam shut, open, and swing fiercely. When they would rush to see
what the commotion was about, there would be nobody there. This usually happens
after the club closes. Bars are a great place for haunting. Learn about the Haunted
Pub Crawl.
