The Edited List of Haunted Places in Indiana

[nate]

[glow=red,1,900]I'm going to take that infamous list and cut out all the "junk" listings. I'll only keep the ones I can find on a map and add directions. I will make one post per city/town and keep them alpahbetical.



Before you attempt to go to these locations, be sure to have permission from the property owner. We DO NOT approve of tresspassing or vandalism. Also be sure to follow any of these directions on a map (yahoo maps, google earth, ect.) before you drive to the locations.[/glow]

Anderson
Lindberg Rd.- On Lindberg rd. down towards Alex Pike. There is a supposed haunted house. It has a partially caved in roof. Neighbors say they have heard strange hiss-like sounds coming from the house. Me and a friend have broken into it before and we did a little research. Supposedly the house was caught on fire close to 20 years ago with the family still in it. All of them escaped except for the middle son, whom supposedly haunts the house. The floor caves in, in many areas of the house and there's ashes all over the place. Supposedly no body was ever found of the boy. Few eye witnesses have supposedly seen a ghost like chandelier hanging even when part of the ceiling is missing. Typical paranormal activity happens such as moving old lamps and such. The biggest spook is that when the wind blows, it will draw pictures in the ashes of a family and house. All the people you can see but the middle sons picture has a hand print over it instead of being drawn.
DIRECTIONS: From I-69 take exsit 34 and head west on commerce Rd./CR-67. Take the first right (County Line Road). Go over the RR tracks and turn left on West Main St./32. Go about 4 miles til you come to S. Scatterfeild Rd./9. Turn right and go 1/2. Lindberg Road will be on the left. Take that to the "T" and you will be at the intersection of Lindbeg & Alexandria Pike


Mounds State Park-Some people have reported encountering blue-gowned dwarves in the park and nearby along the White River at Loblesville. According to Delaware Indian legend, they are the Puk-wud-ies, a tribe of little people that still inhabit the forest.
DIRECTIONS:From I-69 take exsit 34 and head west. Go about 3 miles til you come to E100S road. Turn right, and go a short distance to 232 and turn right again (232 is the road). The entrance to the park will be on the left side of the road.

Angola

Circle Hill Cemetery - people have seen very tall black hooded figures in there and most visitors are too scared to go back.
DIRECTIONS: From I-69 take exsit 148 (route 20) and head east. Go 2.5 miles til you come to a round-about (aka Town circle). Go thru the town circle and continue east. On the right, count 5 streets and take a right on the 6th street. This is Circle Hill Cemetery Road and it may not be marked. Go all the way to the end. The cemetery should be on the left.

Town Circle - if you go to the circle at midnight and look at the movie theatre building you will see a man with a long red beard pacing on the top of the building. You will also, if you are very quiet, you will hear his screeching voice say. "Marie please come back to me, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease!" he sobs and he sobs. He is known as the movie man. And if you go and sit to watch a movie you will hear a sobbing man, but there won’t be anyone sitting behind you, just rows of seats, and maybe a red bearded man.
DIRECTIONS: Same as above. From I-69 take exsit 148 (route 20) and head east. Go 2.5 miles til you come to a round-about (aka Town circle).

Avon

The Haunted Bridge - a railway bridge over White Lick Creek. The ghost of an Irish worker who was killed many years is said to haunt the remains of this old railroad trestle in Central Indiana. He was one of many Irish workers who were hired cheap to help build a bridge across White Lick Creek back in the 1850's. The workers were building pylons that would support the bridge and doing this by framing up the sides of a base and pouring concrete inside. One afternoon, a wooden platform collapsed and dumped one of the workers into the wet cement. He slowly sank into the pylon and the other workers could hear his fists hammering against the wooden sides as he drowned. There had been nothing that could have been done to save him...one minute he was there and the next he had vanished! Construction was delayed for several hours while the company tried to decide what to do. Finally, they declined to tear the pylon apart to find the body of a man who was obviously dead and work continued, despite the protests of some of the more superstitious workers. For some years after that, local residents reported the sounds of the man's final screams as he pitched into the concrete. They also claimed, along with a number of railroad men, that the sounds of hammering could be heard coming from inside the concrete pylon. After the trestle was torn down many years later, people started to report the apparition of the man could be seen wandering the area, trying to flag down oncoming trains.
DIRECTIONS to location #1: From the center of Avon, take State road 36 west to North Center Road. Turn south and go til you see the bridge.
DIRECTIONS to location #2: From the above directions at the intersection of 36 and North Center Road... continue west on 36 and go a little less than 5 miles. You will need to turn left on to E. Main Street. Main will immediately "T" into Shady Lane, take the left. Follow Shady Lane til you come to the bridge.

I need a forum for maps. I have most of them.

I created a sub-board for maps for you Scott. I tried making you the moderator for it, like I did for wicked, but I guess since you have the original admin account you're the only one that can do that.
