Many of America’s Most Haunted Highways have already been covered by several large and small publications, but we thought to bring them up once more…
Have you ever driven down a highway and gotten a creepy feeling? It might not all be in your head! You may just be driving on one of America’s most haunted highways.
This road is so creepy that it actually has a song associated with it. Dick Curless’ song, “A Tombstone Every Mile” talks about how dangerous the road is in the winter time. The road itself is pretty deadly no matter what time of year it is and many ghosts roam around it. Drivers commonly report seeing a little girl who was killed walking down the road and a woman who was in a car accident and goes up to other drivers asking for help. She seems so real that many drivers do try to help her, but she disappears and leaves a dark chill behind.
Archer Avenue
Located in the Chicago area, there is a ghost baby that hangs out around the Sacred Heart Cemetery. A phantom horse rides across the street and scares drivers as well. Resurrection Mary, who was struck by a car and killed many years ago, is often seen hitchhiking.
Mona Lisa Drive
The girl who this drive is named after has an interesting past. One legend states that she killed herself after her father forbid her from being with a boy she was infatuated with. Another legend says that she was killed by a sailor who dumped her. After she died her father was devastated and donated statuary to the city, including one that paid tribute to his daughter. Unfortunately, the statue was eventually removed and destroyed, but Mona still remains. She haunts the area and lovers who are parked in their car for a little make out session are often disturbed by Mona, who can be heard moaning with grief. She also has been known to scratch at their car windows.
Shades Of Death Road
This two land road is only seven miles long, but filled with terror. A lot of terrible things have happened here including murders and lynchings. Those who have traveled on the road have reported a lot of ghostly activities including seeing people hanging from the trees. It’s definitely not a road that you want to drive down at night
Clinton Road
This is one of the most haunted roads on the list. Here you can see witches and ghost sightings. If you are brave, stop at Ghost Boy Bridge and toss a coin in the water. Many people have reported that he actually tosses the coin back. It is said that satanic activities take place in the area, so it’s not uncommon to see some of these practices taking place not far from the road
