So, stop me if you’ve heard this one before: A young man spots a beautiful woman on the side of the road and gives her a ride home. But after he drops her off, he realizes she left her jacket in the car. So he goes back to her house, only to be greeted by an older woman who says the girl doesn’t live there. Once he describes his former passenger, the woman says he just perfectly described her daughter, who died in a car crash twenty years ago on that very stretch of road. Sou

For most of my life, I’ve had this strange fear of trains. I guess it’s not that strange when you think about it — we are talking about machines that could literally rip you apart in seconds. I’m sure there’s someone out there that shares my fear, but it’s not a fear that people like to talk about a lot. A few months ago, I got a request to talk about the haunted railroad tracks of San Antonio. When I looked into the legend, I realized I’d already heard it before…and I rememb

Most of my blogs fall into one of two broad categories: haunted places and the paranormal, or true crime. These two genres often overlap, but I think this is the first video I’ve done that falls squarely into both categories. This is the story of a brutal murder in a small town that is still unsolved over 100 years later, and the supposed hauntings that still plague the house where it happened. This is the story of the Villisca axe murders. Villisca is a small town in souther

Japan is filled to the brim with all sorts of terrifying urban legends. I’ll probably never get tired of hearing stories like Teke Teke or the Slit Mouthed Woman. But for this video, I wanted to explore a story that I keep seeing all over the internet and was really curious about. Once I actually looked into it, it was a lot darker than I initially thought. This is the legend of Himuro Mansion. Like any legend, the story of Himuro Mansion has many different versions. But here

I’ve made several videos about various haunted places all over New Orleans. But now I want to switch gears a bit and talk about another famously haunted city in the South— Savannah, Georgia. Savannah is a beautiful city with a rich history that stretches all the way back to 1733. It’s been named as one of the top 10 most beautiful places in America by USA Weekend Magazine and is the childhood home of Flannery O’ Connor. But Savannah also has a darker history as one of the mos

A few weeks ago, I did a video on 10 haunted places in New Orleans. During my research for that video I came across a place called the Old Ursuline Convent Museum which, I realized later, I’d seen on a ghost tour years ago and forgotten about. I’d also heard the story of the casket girls that supposedly lived there back in the 1700’s. I was really interested in revisiting this legend, but wanted to save it for its own video. So here is the story of the casket girls of New Orl

Maybe I’m biased because I live close by, but I think New Orleans is one of the most fascinating cities in the country. I’ve heard it described as a separate country all its own and, when you travel there, it kind of does feel like you’re stepping into another world. New Orleans also has a reputation of being a hub for all things supernatural, and you can’t go very far without finding a haunted location. Here are 10 creepy haunted places in New Orleans. (Note: I won’t be cove

Vicksburg, Mississippi has plenty of haunted places, including houses, a garden district, and a military park where thousands of soldiers lost their lives. It’s also home to what was, until recently, what some people considered one of the most haunted hospitals in the South. This is Kuhn State Memorial Hospital. Until recently, it sat at 1422 Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard in Vicksburg. It was 40,000 square feet on 12.8 acres of land and, interestingly, was in the shape of

A couple of weeks ago, I made a post about crybaby bridges. One of the bridges I talked about was in an area of Ohio known as Helltown. The stories of this place were so crazy, I had to look into them further, and what I found was very interesting. Here is the story of Boston Township, Ohio....better known as Helltown. Boston Township was officially established in 1811. It’s located in the Cuyahoga Valley in northern Ohio, about 20 miles south of Cleveland. For over 150 years

Have you ever been to crybaby bridge? If you live in or have ever been to the U.S., there’s a good chance you’ve at least been near one. Dozens of supposedly haunted bridges have been given this name, and the legends behind them usually involve child death, often at the hands of the child’s own mother — so, you know, nice pleasant things. Here are six crybaby bridges across the United States. 1. Utah About 70 miles north of Salt Lake City lies Bear River City. The city’s aptl

So, picture this: You're out alone at night. Maybe you're staying at a hotel, driving down the road or attending an event and wandered away from the crowd. You see a woman dressed all in white and decide, for whatever reason, to approach her. But at some point in your interaction -- maybe even before it starts -- she disappears right before your eyes You later discover the truth about this woman. Maybe the white outfit is her wedding dress and she was just left at the altar.

Last week I visited W. M. Seymour Cemetery in Ocean Springs, Mississippi. It's about an hour and a half from my house, and I was interested in it because it's supposed to be haunted. So I thought I'd check it out. The cemetery is more commonly known as 'Rock n Roll Graveyard." I've heard a couple different theories as to how it got its nickname. The main one is that teenagers used to go out to the cemetery to party. Once I got there, I understood why they'd want to do that, b

Every day in London, five million people, both resident and tourist alike, ride the London Underground across the city. Opened in 1863, the Underground, known affectionately as "the Tube," is the oldest underground railway system in the world. With such a long history, it's no surprise that the Tube has its share of spirits. Here are five haunted London Underground station King's Cross Station Those in my generation mostly know King's Cross Station as a secret portal to the H

I love traveling, but the word "tourist" has a bad reputation. We all know the stereotype of the middle aged couples in oversized t-shirts and fanny packs, fawning over ordinary looking landmarks simply because someone famous lived there or made a speech there. But there are plenty of tourist attractions with a darker history they don't tell you about in guide books. Here are four famous places you probably didn't realize are haunted The White House It's been the home of ever
