Fun Trivia : Quizzes : The Unexplained : One Haunting Road Trip 2

Introduction:
"You and your friends load into the car again for another road trip across the United States. I will give you a bit of info about a location, you answer with the correct place name."


1. You start out your road trip in Key West, Florida. The bed-and-breakfast is said to be haunted by the wife of the late artist, Gene Otto, and an unidentified little girl. But in this old home it is not the spirits you must watch for, it is the life-sized doll named Robert. Robert has a tendency to show up around the house in places other than where he was put. Witnesses say that if you listen closely, Robert will be giggling. His eyes will also follow you around the room.

2. Leaving behind beautiful Key West and Robert, you head towards Bainbridge, Georgia to a cemetery with some strange activity. There is a fireball that appears over the graveyard on the eve of a death. Neighbors who witness the fireball know there is a new grave that needs dug. As disturbing as this is, the most terrifying is their apparent Grim problem. There is said to be a very large phantom black dog that prowls the area.

    Andersonville National Cemetery
    New Enterprise Freewill Baptist Church Cemetery
    Bonaventure Cemetery


3. Leaving the fireball and the Grim behind, you head to Johnson County, Tennessee. This "Screaming" rock makes an eerie screaming sound on cold winter nights. Legend states that it is the spirit of Old Martin playing his fiddle. In life, he was an amazing fiddle player. It was said that he could put babies to sleep and charm rattle snakes with his fiddle. Old Martin made it a habit to sit on this ledge and charm the rattle snakes. One night he never returned from the ledge. His swollen body was found the next morning with dozens of snake bites.

    Pine Ridge Indian Reservation
    Spirit Hills


4. Leaving behind the music of Old Martin, on to a popular nightclub in Wilder, Kentucky. The building was the subject of Douglas Hensley's book "Hell's Gate". The book was appropriately named because the history is so tainted with devil worshipping, murder, illegal activity, and violence. It was once a slaughterhouse with a deep well that collected all the blood and body fluids. When the slaughterhouse closed, devil worshippers used the site for rituals. Two devil worshippers, in 1896, beheaded Pearl Bryan and used her head in their ceremonies, her head was never found. The building served as a speakeasy during prohibition and was the scene of many mob murders. The ghostly activity continues today.

5. After a night of dancing at the nightclub, you head towards Tippecanoe, Indiana. This is a small town on the west bank of the Wabash River. It is here that the remarkable Shawnee prophet, Elskatawa, made some of the most phenomenal predictions. He predicted that in December 1811 the world would go dark for two days, the animals would come out of the earth, and the earth would shake. He predicted correctly! During the first weeks of December 1811 suddenly all the squirrels left Indiana, thousands died trying to swim across the Ohio River. Then, on December 16, the strongest earthquake ever recorded in U.S. history hit. It shook the earth so hard that the Mississippi and Ohio rivers flowed backwards and the sun was over shadowed for two days from the dust of the falling debris.

    Hayloft Town
    Prophet's Town

6. Amazed at the predictions of Elskatawa, you move on to Chicago, Illinois. It is here that you visit a small cemetery in Southern Chicago. There have been over a hundred reported sightings in this cemetery. It is here that people have also reported seeing the White Lady or Mrs. Rogers on a full moons night. By the lagoon reports state that there is a two-headed man and a farmer with his plow and horse.
    Evergreen Cemetery
    Bachelor's Grove Cemetery
    Graceland Cemetery
    Jewish Waldheim Cemetery


7. Taking one last look back at the cemetery, you decide to head towards Mineral Point, Wisconsin. It is here, in the mid-ninteenth century, that the town was terrorized by a shape-shifting poltergeist. The ghost took many forms, including a headless man, an old woman, a young woman, a ball of fire, a pig, a dog, and a horse. It would attack travelers and be gone before they knew what hit them. It terrorized the area to the point that no one was to be out at night and if you truly had to, you were escorted by armed guards. During the same period strange ghosts also haunted a hotel, 2 saloons, a church, a cemetery, and several private residences. Some believe that the phantom left after the town burnt down in 1910, some believe it is just waiting. This well documented case is one of the scariest on record.

8. Your next stop is Crow Wing County, Minnesota. Here you are going to a mine that has been haunted since 1924. In 1924 the miners dug through a wall that abutted a lake. Within 15 minutes the mine was submerged in water and 43 men had died. The seven survivors spoke of one man, Clinton Harris, who stayed behind to ring the warning bell for other miners. The bell rang for nearly 5 hours after the mine had been submerged. When the first miners went into the shaft, after the accident, they came face to face with Clinton Harris. His spirit clinging to the escape ladder and his gaze set upward. They left and never again entered the mine.

9. Waving goodbye to Clint Harris and his mine, you move on to Minot, North Dakota. Here you visit a nice little antique shop. The shop has a couple of problems. One is the man who hung himself in the attic, he loves moving candy from one dusty jar to another. The next, a residual haunting of a man who drowned in the pond out back, although it only occurs on October 27th, it is still a bit disturbing.

10. After purchasing some antiques, you move on to Rapid City, South Dakota for some shut eye in a 1920's stately hotel. As you check in you check your room number, luckily you are not on the eighth floor. Those poor people will get very little sleep. The apparition of a woman moves objects and makes horrible crying sounds. She is believed to be a bride who jumped to her death from the eighth floor. The former manager, who jumped from the hotel's roof, is another spirit at the hotel. Possibly the most disturbing presence is a poltergeist that is in the top floor storage area. He likes to throw things at people, moves furniture, and turns the lights on and off.

11. Well rested, you move on to Platte River, Wyoming. The next spot is a ghostly phenomena that you do not want to see. This gigantic ship emerges out of a rolling ball of fog. The crew and everything on the ship are covered in frost. The frost covered crew is huddled around a body on a white canvas sheet. When the crew steps back to reveal the corpse, it is always someone the witness knows and that person will die that day. In 1887, Leon Weber saw his fiancee. In 1887, Gene Wilson saw his wife. In 1903, Victor Heibe saw his close friend. All died on the day the ship was seen.

12. After breathing a sigh of relief that you didn't see the ship, you go on to Montana. This Helina, Montana college has several resident spirits. The St. Charles Hall has a bathroom on the fourth floor that is locked up-for a good reason. The room was the scene of a horrible death, a young male student fell and hit his head on the sink, dying of a hemorrhage. Students had reported to school officials about hauntings in the bathroom and custodians were going crazy trying to clean the sink (no matter how much they scrubbed the red stain would not come out). When the sink was replaced in the bathroom, the red stain appeared in the new sink as well. Officials had had enough and boarded up the bathroom for good. The St. Charles Hall also has the spirit of a student who jumped to his death, which replays the scene over and over again. A nun haunts St. Albert's Hall.

13. After your trip to the Montana college you head to Idaho. There you visit a private residence of Ms. Heidi Linehan. This single story brick building was used for a variety of commercial endeavors before becoming a private home. Paranormal activity was detected almost immediately. There would be unexplained sounds and weird happenings. The ghost of a tall, thin elderly man appeared asking "Do you see me?" The phantom of a huge silver rat was seen in the kitchen. Whenever the house was to be renovated, it was always interfered with by spirit activity.

14. From one private residence to another. This time to 2107 North Watts St. Portland, Oregon. This house has a violent history and the traumatized souls seem to have never left. On December 22, 1972, a young mother let her estranged husband into her apartment. Shortly after, he beat her to death and then shot himself in the basement, while their five children lay terrified in bed. In 1985, a young couple bought the house, not knowing its violent past. In 1987, their three-year-old daughter started seeing a ghostly woman tucking her into bed with a dark male shadow standing behind her. She said the shadow man never moved or spoke but always stood right behind the ghostly woman. This was just the beginning of their issues. Soon there were unexplained cold spots, electronic malfunctions, eerie heavy footsteps, and the booming angry voice of a man.

15. Last stop, San Juan County, Washington. Here you encounter Fritz Lee, who died from influenza in 1918. Fritz has never left this little farmhouse. Fritz is a playful and harmless poltergeist. He likes to tune the radios to certain stations, move objects suddenly, and move furniture around the upstairs bedroom where he died.
