You have some excellent stories! I had read your apartment building story a while back and thought it was very interesting. The 2 newer stories are equally as interesting. I know of several well documented haunted locations in my area. I just need to find the time to investigate them. I also need to find a few people willing to go with me. I even know of some old farms and such within an hour drive from my home. I've always wanted to go out there during the day anyway to take photos. So, if I can find a few people, perhaps we can go to these places in the afternoon on weekends and stay until late evening.

Wonderful story. It would be nice to know the true history of the tree, the girl and the farms. I wonder just how they all were tied together. Hopefully changing things will help prevent more accidents.

Great story! Your description of the tree, the surrounding graveyard, and the farm houses created a very creepy image in my head. When you said the last accident was the car swirving off the road to avoid a girl standing in the road, it was like I could see the girl myself. 😨

Very interesting history on the property as well. Thank you for sharing this with us. 😊

That is a really crazy piece of history. I wonder what really happened there? I think the girl may have had something to do with the deaths. It may be for the best that they changed that spot, before anyone else got hurt.

The legend of the farm stead murders have a lot of diffreent versions going around as to who was murdered, how many people were involved and how they were murdered. So I do not know if there is any truth to that story. I have not researched it to any substancial depth.

But it is very credible considereing the history of the town.
Most versions tell of a daughter & mother that was killed by a drunk and violent father.
I know the houses were left abandoned for many years and that the local police believed that the houses were once the location of a murder. (I assume they had factual information to back thier beliefs on)
It seems that at the time all the older towns people also knew of the location and murders.

As for the modern events, both events made the local papers so I am sure there is something around.
Actually I think both the local papers reported the deaths of the kids. A nearby city paper also covered the story several days later and I can remember that they featured a small picture of the area and in the background of the picture was the tree.
It was this acticle that actually alerted me to the location that this event happened at.

What an excellent story! Very creepy and it does not sound embellished at all. Thank you for sharing your experience. Is there any way if you can find out if the girl had something to do with the murders or the people that lived there? Are there any records to substantiate those claims?
