WITH OCTOBER HERE – MANY ARE THINKING ABOUT THE SPOOKY SEASON.
AND IF YOU’RE LOOKING FOR A WAY TO GET INTO THE SPIRIT, HOW ABOUT A ROAD TRIP?
THERE’S A NEW LIST RANKING SOME OF THE WORLD’S MOST HAUNTED ROADS.
A SPOT IN NEW JERSEY IS NEAR THE TOP OF THAT LIST.
CLINTON ROAD IN WEST MILFORD NOW RANKS AS THE MOST HAUNTED ROAD IN THE U-S AND THE SECOND MOST HAUNTED IN THE WORLD ACCORDING TO SIXT-DOT-COM.
TUCKED AWAY IN NORTH JERSEY’S FORESTS, IT HAS A REPUTATION THAT STRETCHES BACK YEARS.
THE GHOST OF A YOUNG BOY IS SAID TO HAUNT A BRIDGE ALONG THE ROAD.
THE STORY GOES THAT IF YOU TOSS A COIN INTO THE WATER, THE BOY’S SPIRIT MIGHT THROW IT RIGHT BACK AT BEFORE YOU’RE CHASED BY AN UNSEEN PRESENCE.
INTERSTATE 4 IN SOUTH FLORIDA TAKES THE SECOND SPOT ON THE LIST.
LOCALS SAY THERE’S A ‘DEAD ZONE’ ALONG THE HIGHWAY WHERE CELL PHONE AND RADIO SIGNALS COMPLETELY DROP.
DRIVERS HAVE EVEN REPORTED MYSTERIOUS FLOATING BALLS OF LIGHT.
AND COMING IN AT THIRD IS WISCONSIN’S BRAY ROAD, HOME TO THE ‘BEAST OF BRAY ROAD’
DRIVERS SAY A WEREWOLF-LIKE CREATURE IS SAID TO PROWL THE RURAL HIGHWAY.
NOW THERE’S A GOOD CHANCE THIS IS ALL JUST HYPE.
THE LIST WAS COMPILED BY MEASURING SEARCH TRENDS – USING GOOGLE AND TIKTOK FOR THE ROAD NAMES AND ACCOMPANYING WORDS LIKE ‘GHOST’ OR ‘HAUNTED’.
IF YOU WANT TO CHECK OUT THE FULL LIST FOR YOURSELF WE’VE GOT A LINK ON OUR WEBSITE. –
