good luck you have plenty of choices

Fort Wayne

Bostick Bridge - Supposedly haunted and there have been reports of satanic activity. One visitor went there to discover a pile of about 10 dead squirrels all cut up. Update: The bridge is going to be torn down and rebuilt.



Bruick Rd - If you go over a bridge & park your car, you can see a white light that sometimes gets bigger, moves, & changes colors. The farther you follow it, the farther it seems to move backwards, away until all at once it vanishes. Update: This bridge has since been torn down and rebuilt.



Carroll High School - It is believed that Carroll High School is cursed and haunted. Every year a junior student dies surprisingly, and eventually the student comes back to haunt and be known. One example, not mentioning the name, a girl who died, came back to be remembered. A day after her death, in class, a boy took her original seat and fell off. To everyone's surprise, they asked him if he was alright. He then replied, in a shocked look, "No, not really." The teacher asked why. He replied back "I didn't fall, I was pushed." However, some former students say that this story is not true and they have never heard of this incident happening.



Cement House - This house is on the south side of Fort Wayne that is also called Whites Mansion. It sits on an old lot full of thick trees off of South Lafayette, or South Hanna. It must have been sitting there for at least 65 or 70 years by now. Inside the "shell" of this house it is very rundown, and gangs have drawn graffiti' all over the walls of this house. The story goes like this: A man had an invalid wife. He started to build a house for her. This house was to be total cement. It was to be white, with large black and white tiles in the foyer, or entry way. It had ramps because she was in a wheel chair. He worked night and day on this house. It was very huge and I think it had 3 stories. But it was totally in white cement. The legend goes, the man's wife died before he could finish it for her. He was so heartbroken, that he simply left the house sitting unfinished to this day. Now, the ghost of this woman supposedly walks the house at night. People supposedly have seen her with a light, or candle or what ever.



Chapman Road - Just north of Cedar Canyons Rd. in Fort Wayne there is a road called Chapman rd. If you take it to a road called Griffin and turn right you will come to a valley in the road. If you stop at the very bottom of the valley and put your car in park a mysterious "force" will pull your vehicle back UP the hill! You can also take Chapman rd. all the way down until it tees then turn right. Take that road (Auburn rd.) to Hollopeter rd. and turn right. That rd. will turn into Griffin and you will be coming down the other side of the valley (the same thing will happen if you put your car in park).



Char's House of Oak - This is a retail store on Wells Street . It consists of several old houses filled with oak furniture all in the same area. In the main house there is a stairway leading upstairs. While ascending the stairs while shopping, an apparition of a man with disheveled black hair, heavy 5 o'clock shadow, dirty white undershirt and green work pants appeared at the top of the stairs in an uncontrolled rage. He whipped off his belt and ran down the stairs with his belt raised over his head ready to swing it. As he was running down the stairs he passed right through a shopper leaving an icy chill throughout their body and an extremely unsettled feeling. Update: It has gone out of business and is currently being remodeled. The 3 houses used to be connected and are now separated.



Cold-Water Rd - Wal-Mart - Around 3am-4am in the morning, shoppers and workers hear bagpipes playing a Scottish tune. Shortly when song ends, a man in a green plaid kilt makes his appearance by pacing the floors. When he walks by you, you will get a cold eerie feeling. This ghost is known to be friendly.



Columbia City - The Haunted Jail, the ghost of a murderer is said to haunt the site of the retired jail. It is now used as a haunted house throughout the Halloween season, and members who work there in the off-season report a lot of paranormal activity. Noises such as footsteps and scraping along walls are also reported the only thing that runs is the electricity, there is nothing as far as a heating system to be mistaken for the noises. There is a door that always must remain open if it is shut when you walk away and come back it is always open. Some workers have seen some blurry object touch there hand, and feel something touch their shoulders. Then there is the 3rd floor, there isn't much in there, and some say it's the most haunted part of the jail. There is supposed to be a woman's ashy foot prints on the wall, but there is nothing that could cause ash to be up there. One night one of the workers had set his keys down stairs and took his girlfriend up to the 3rd floor,
