People love telling stories about some of the scariest places in America— it's a tradition at campfires
and sleep overs all over America. While some stories, like Bigfoot, have entered mainstream pop
culture, others have stayed local, like the poisoned girl at Centennial Hall in Nebraska.
I wonder....what goes on in your state?? ~  |

PENNSYLVANIA: The bus to nowhere The story of this bus is quite sad.
In Philadelphia, there's rumored to be a bus that doesn't have an end destination. The story says that the bus only picks up passengers that are at their lowest moments who need to get away from their problems. Once the passenger is ready to face the world, they can get off the bus.
But, the passenger has no idea how long they've been on the bus for — it could have been hours, days, or even years.

RHODE ISLAND: The Devil's footprints  The rock is somewhere in the North Kingston, RI forest. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Northeast Region There is a rock on Devil's Foot Road that appears to show a normal human footprint, and a cloven hoof. The story goes that a Native American woman murdered a white man, and fled the scene of the crime. While running, she was stopped by another man. She cried out for the Devil to save her, when the man admitted that he himself was the Devil, and stomped his feet on the ground to prove that he had a cloven hoof, which the rock still shows to this day. ~

SOUTH CAROLINA: The death of Julia Legare  One of many abandoned homes on Edisto IslandIn the 1800s, the Legares were a well-to-do South Carolinian family that had homes on the mainland and on Edisto Island. The daughter, Julia, got sick, was pronounced dead, and was buried inside their family mausoleum.
Years later, another member of the Legare family died, and when their tomb was opened up, the remains of Julia were found outside of her coffin. The story says that Julia had been in a coma, and had woken up to try and escape her tomb, but sadly died.
After the first re-opening of the Legare mausoleum, the door can't seem to stay shut. The Legares tried multiple different doors, and every single time the door was found open. People believe that the ghost of Julia didn't want to be locked in that tomb any longer. ~ |

You've hit on the one thing that seriously frightens me - the thought of being buried or burned alive. I've made my family promise to stick pins into me to double check. I'm not frightened of death but being incarcerated alive really does worry me.

SOUTH DAKOTA: Walking Sam and the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation  The reservation is southeast of Deadwood, SD. Wikimedia Commons
Purportedly over seven feet tall and very slim, Walking Sam is said to appear on the streets of the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation at night, and he tries to convince teenagers to commit suicide. Whether or not Walking Sam is real, something tragic is going on at the reservation. From December 2014 to May 2015, there were 103 suicide attempts at Pine Ridge. ~ |

TENNESSEE: The boy in the bathroom at Pine Haven School  An abandoned school gym. The Pine Haven School, located in Jamestown, is old and abandoned, and it's said to be haunted.
A tragic story supposedly took place there, where a boy was cornered by a group of bullies in the bathroom and shoved into a mirror, which shattered and killed him.
To avoid getting caught committing murder, the story says that the bullies decided to bury the body underneath the floorboards. Today, people say that if you go inside the school you can see the reflection of the boy if you look in the mirror. ~

that's why i made my comment about the school shootings, etc. worry i may have been taken wrong with my comment. I do NOT support them doing mass shootings of course but I DO understand how kids being bullied are made to feel. I can understand how much they are made to hurt too is all I was getting at. The kids being bullied are victims too...doesn't make shootings etc. right of course but they are severely hurt as well, emotionally and physically with what they are made to go through by the kids bullying them.

TEXAS: The Candy Lady  Candy started appearing on windowsills. In the early 1900s, children in an unnamed rural town in Texas started to go missing and the residents blamed it on the Candy Lady. The story says that she would go around leaving candy on children's windows and eventually she'd lure the kids out with notes attached, promising more candy.
The story picked up steam when a farmer allegedly found rotten teeth on his farm, and later found the body of a boy with his pockets stuffed with candy.
While little is known about the origin of this story, some have speculated that the Candy Lady was real and that her name was Clara Crane. ~ |
