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, if a coin is tossed into the water, the boy’s spirit might throw it right back, with the person then chased by an unseen presence.

Interstate 4 in Florida takes the second spot on the list. Locals say there is a “dead zone” along the highway where cellphone and radio signals completely drop. Drivers have even reported mysterious floating balls of light.

Third on the list is owned by Wisconsin’s Bray Road, home to the “beast of Bray Road.” Drivers say a werewolf-life creature is said to prowl the rural highway.

Now there’s a good chance most of this is local hype. The list was compiled by measuring search trends, using Google and TikTok for the road names and accompanying words like “ghost” or “haunted.”
