I used to live in Bel-Nor, my friend Demetrius lived in THAT house. And he swore to me it was haunted. I only spent the night there once and he had me freaked out from all the noises, (there was a thunderstorm happening) I begged his mother to call my dad and have him come get me. I NEVER set foot in his house again aftre that night.
@@meagankieffer73 My family moved there in 1972, and my youngest brother who inherited the house sold it in 2014, when he and his wife moved to St. Charles. The whole municipality has been going down with all the college students renting the houses, with 6-10 people in a house meant for no more than 5.
I knew two different groups who had been to the house. One was his friends in common, the other was “The Haunted Boy” documentary crew. I know the general location, but never been to the house, respecting his privacy. (Also, we’ve lost people in both groups to health issues.)
Really think I saw a ghost on the Creve Coeur trail park at night on a long walk home one night from Maryland heights to St Charles. It was just not human looking. So big,tall and black and it was looking like it was floating. I've done a ton of walking at night in my life(especially when I lived back in St Charles) never seen anything like that ever before.
What's really cool about Alton too is that there are always haunted tours going on at mineral springs, mcpike mansion, and some other places. Also if you're into metaphysicals there's a little shop in the mineral springs mall (aka hotel) called raining zen! Truly a cool spot.
When my Dad was laid to rest at Jefferson barracks,after they did the taps and all the things It sounded like soldiers marching by. I was looking around and seen nothing. I asked my mom and a few other relatives if they heard it and they all said no.
Urban legends and ghost stories are all so interesting and add to the history of the area. I have lived all over the US and in a couple of other countries. Every place has its own unique culture and stories. I don't know if ghosts are real or not, but the stories are around everywhere you go. Maybe some people have special talents that make them able to see things that others of us can't.
I'm from Alton. Worked at a company in Mineral Springs. What they showed was the public pool. The mineral spring was located farther back in the building. It was a lot smaller. I lived a few blocks from the McPike mansion, and spent my teen years "exploring" it. Interesting fact: in the back yard, at the Southwest corner are, I believe two, maybe three Graves. Not many people know about them. McPike was a pretty cool mansion, but vandals did a bad number on it. Add the age, and the weather, it remains in poor shape. There are a lot more haunted places in Alton.
I live in the townhouses just outside of Jefferson Barracks park. We definitely have had some scary, supernatural experiences here. Some people from my church came to cleanse and bless our place and it stopped.
My family lived in one of those houses it was def a weird place. He drove a car with a steering wheel on both sides as he was a driving instructor. Told me never to touch the wheel or brakes and and gas. 😂
I live in Illinois but I have always enjoyed the St. Louis area. It’s the places like these that make it interesting. Even way up where I live, we’ve heard of the gateways to hell. Used to scare each other with them around this time of year lol.
People haven’t been allowed on Zombie road after dark for YEARS. Tom Halstead took the infamous ghosts on the ridge photo, didn’t realize what he had until later, when he noticed the line of people he never saw had no reflections in the water below, but everything else was reflected.
Zombie road is haunted. I went there about 12 years ago as a teenager with my three friends (when it was gravel) we bought three brand new flashlights (small, medium, large) had all of our cellphones as well. We were walking close to the bluff where the meramec was on our right side. All three new lights burnt out, our cell phones died and something started chucking rocks off the bluff at us. Not to mention intense cold bursts of air before the rocks started flying. That place is not an urban legend “IT IS REAL” There is also a haunted dental office Dr. Aaron Oge used to work at it right over the river in IL. Can’t remember the name of it. Spring dental or something like that. I was there my last night and every cabinet and every draw opened. I NEVER WENT BACK!
I spoke with Troy Taylor maybe 20 years ago about a book he wrote on haunted places around the Mississippi River area. This man knows a lot of haunted history!
Zombie Road, used to be called Old Lauleford Rd. It went down to the Meramec River where there was a gravel quary. You can go down there and see some sunken barges, and ramps that go down to the river itself. Because of the Urban Legend behind the road being haunted drew too many local teens and trustees to modern chemistry. There were many deaths due to stupidity and teenage high-jinks. So, they closed the road, and the park system bought it out.
I was stationed there in the 131st SFS for several years during and Post 9/11. I patrolled the flight line area (as well as the rest of the base) on nights and had no idea.
I love the Haunted Alton tours with Troy. Not super scary, but a lot of food, drinks, fun, and storytelling. Been in that pool of the Mineral Springs hotel.
Troy Taylor is like an encyclopedia on haunted places. Lol I've been to all of these places, and in the old brewery of the Lemps. The brewery is haunted to.
St. Louis is a crossroads city. I've played hopscotch with the Mississippi River my entire life. I've lived on both sides of the river in both Missouri and Illinois. This area is energetic chaos, and it shows in the way people behave. It's the center of everywhere and nowhere.
I believe that Pearl Curran was tapping into a part of herself that had she'd never acknowledged before. Pearl might not have consciously been poetic or intellectual or a seeker of knowledge, but she had still absorbed a lot of the cultured, litary society of St. Louis at that time and had a secret poetic soul that expressed itself through the imaginary "Patience Worth".
Re--“Hitchhike Annie”--Come on! I’ve heard that same story in Chicago where the spirit’s name was “Resurrection Mary.” Another area called the spirit “Lavender.” Say it with me--URBAN LEGEND!
I worked as a mobile lab tech for St Louis, St Charles & St Clair county an yes I been by the exorcist home, bellefontaine cemetery, St alexian, state psychiatric , mpc , hospital, VA, lemp mansion an so much more from 1am to 7am m-f an I can say this much St Louis matter of fact most of everything that the Mississippi flows threw is extremely , I use to drive threw some of the most beautiful history filled cemeteries that u just fill them in the air an all around the counties
I was born and raised in Ferguson (1957-1979). I remember hearing stories about the Wobble Heads as a teenager. Can't really remember much about them except that they lived in an Asylum and would sometimes escape. If you or anyone else knows more about this, I would like to hear it. Thank you.
I believe they were called the bubble heads. They lived in a secluded home in north county off of New Halls Ferry Rd. My daughter claims she, and several friends encountered them in 2016. She still freaks out today talking about them.
@@kevinstewart7636 Back in my day(and neighborhood) we called them Wobble Heads, because their heads were so big that they wobbled. But I believe when I got older I heard it was just an urban legend and that was in the '70's. Interesting that the legend is still around in 2016!
A group of me and my friends went to where the bobble heads were supposedly and it was off like New Halls Ferry and like Sinks road, somewhere up in there, anyway we pulled off onto a vey long gravel driveway and parked and walked onto the property, there was woods with a little spring running through it and one house all the way down driveway. A man came out with a shotgun, ( we were all 16-17 from McCluer Highschool btw)the man started yelling for us to go and we ran to our cars and he got in a white pickup and started chasing us and yelling at us. We all got out of there and eventually he stopped chasing us. We never seen any bobble heads. This was back in 1994
@@Justjennb I went to McCluer High School, but I graduated in '75. Your story refreshed my memory. I remember someone saying the same thing happened to them. A guy with a shotgun and being chased.
I was a funeral honors soldier at Jefferson Barracks, and most days when everything is being ran on schedule nothing of substance happens. 15-20 minute service, on to the next, no big deal. When you have a retiree service where it’s a full funeral service, you will notice eerie nuances, foot steps when nobody is moving, time seems to move slowly, and a few other happenings.
I was a reservist in the 90's at JB and the 2nd floor of building our shop was off limits due being structurally unsafe. But we'd often hear boot steps upstairs. Others claimed there were times people saw soldiers in WW1 uniforms on the parade field.
Concerning spiritualism, my family doctor, until he died, was Dr. Geo Seib. His mother was Carrie Seib, a famous spiritualist in St. Louis. I remember as a child going to Dr. Seib’s office and seeing Carrie on occasion and even talking with her. I was told they talked to ghosts in the upper story of his huge home where they lived. Dr. Seib was a man of science and quite famous in his day. So I was surprised this was going on. His home was beautiful! Lots of exquisite decorations with an old world German flavor. Dr. Seib delivered me in 1956 and at one time he averaged delivering one child a day, on top of his practice inside of his house. He worked first come first served and didn’t use a sign-in sheet or secretary. He simply remembered the order of those who came in. If more than one came in while he was tending a patient, he would ask who came in first. He also has his own pharmacy and he was a compounding pharmacist. He never gave shots in the arm, only in the bottom. And if I had to go there, I knew I would get a shot! Great memories of a great St. Louis Doctor and his mother.
You obviously don’t know what you are talking about. Dr. Seib taught at Washington University Medical Center. He wrote a paper that proved lung cancer could be diagnosed without X-rays. He was also an expert in blood diseases and proved that blood from different races made no difference, back when prejudice dictated the opposite. The fact that his mom was into spiritualism had nothing to do with him being a great man of science that he was.
@@keithweiss7899 LOL! I have no idea who any of these people are, but I do recognize a locaical fallacy when I see one. I'll let you guess which one it is.
My husband was at Alexian bro. He said the whole floor that the young man was on was freezing all the time and so the staff locked that floor and told paitents it was unfinished construction. However since jim was a teenager hed sneak out and go all over the hospital which he said was very unnerveing.
I lived in a house across the street from that hospital whole neighborhood is cursed. Very creepy only stayed 3 months can barely talk about the things that happened without getting scared
In junior high we took a field trip to the lamp mansion ( 1998 I think). .it was day time and not as scary as I was expecting...I think everything is always creepier after dark though lol.
I live near the 7 gates actually the last one is about 15 min away. Some people don't know farther on is acid bridge. It is so cool looking it is spray painted all to hell. Just in the middle of nowhere farm country the most tagged bridge. I'm assuming a local just dumped a poached deer but I did clearly see two ribcages off the side of the road before. There is a house within view off the bridge.
I was in St Alexis hospital after this poor boys possession. The entire wing was blocked off with boards and caution tape. And eventually they tore down the wing.
I grew up in west county and heard spooky stories about Zombie Road, but always thought the road was made up. It wasn't until last year that I found out the place is real.
I grew up out in West County, too. I spent several nights in a car full of teens being driven along Zombie Rd. No, I never saw or heard anything paranormal or scary. It was scary enough without any incident happening!
@@kathryncrisler5070 The only thing weird that I've seen about Zombie Road is that photo of "shadow people" on the internet (which are probably just a bunch of shrubs at dusk.) It is creepy looking though.
We did too 4 car load full of teens on Halloween night someone chain sawed a tree down so we couldn't get out good thing this huge guy was with us I mean huge we got the he'll out of there fast
Though we pronounce it differently in the Lou he's giving a history lesson and pronouncing it correctly according to history. It is French and he is local.
Hitchhiker Annie no longer appeared after the mid 80s due to the condition of the neighborhoods surrounding Calvary and Bellefontaine Cemetaries. Too scary for even ghosts!
I remember when I was considering joining the National Guard and the recruiter had to go to Jefferson Barracks for whatever and got to drive a Humvee to there, funny we went to the maintenance garage there was this group of army mechanics just sitting around doing nothing.
Story #7 is the exact same story but occuring in Dallas Texas at White Rock Lake. Man, for a ghost that girl sure gets around. In Dallas she is known as 'The Ghost of White Rock Lake'.
The mineral Springs hotel is most definitely true!! My friends dad turned the upstairs into a huge loft in the early 2000’s and we were sitting there playing Madden on APEX tv! So I’m asking questions about the ghost as usual and then boom the ghost turn the volume to the max on the tv, the green lines for the volume went up right in our face and the remote was right there on the coffee table! I was suppose to stay over that Night, umm how bout that was a big NO
My uncle through marriage worked at the hospital in the late 70's and said they made him clean the rooms on the top floor one night after cleaning them the next morning the walls and floor were covered in blood. He said after that he told them he would never clean up there again. This guy was a crazy mf and not scared of anything. I almost didnt believe it but my cousin said it was.
I lived between two bridges in Collinsville Illinois. The home I lived in was build in the 1920's I can say living there had made me believe in ghosts. It is super haunted down there. There was also a home down the hill across from me that looked like it had been in a terrible fire. This home even had the family pictures still there. It is also now torn down. I believe it is also so haunted there because people go down in the bridges and do satanic things. I have seen dog remains along with many other animal remains down under gate 5.
I live three hours down from McPike and my house is on a parcel of the original property. I've never experienced anything paranormal. My theory is that the owners started the ghost stories because they couldn't get a restoration grant.
zombie road my car lights were flickering and did not want to come on! houses on the south side my ex friends home we were 23 24 was an old boarding home prior to us leaving his stepmom and father is 80 years old by the way we left backing out into the alley and a lady was standing upstairs peeking down at us a silhouette short hair dark eyes and dropped the curtain immediately as we looked back at each other and asked each other did u see that . St. louis is very haunted im a witness
I’ve eaten lunch at the Lemp Mansion. Very cool place. Thankfully I didn’t see anything while I was eating, but I did have a feeling when I was there which made me think we don’t see everything in there.
I gave my younger sister and her teen daughter a birthday overnight stay at Lemp Mansion which they had all to themselves. They tried to get me to join them but OH NO NOT I...spookie.
You say, "...stories of people sleeping in the buildings"? I say, check those buildings for carbon monoxide poisoning. If so, that could explain visual and audible hallucinations.
Prohibition killed them but the bushes were the nail in the coffin. I heard they brought back Lemp beer although not the same recipe. The brewers said modern people wouldn't like old style beer
My coworker got a spirit attachment that she had to get removed at her church after an overnight stay at Lemp, so yeah it it probably is haunted. A lot of depressing shit happened there, lots of prostitution and poverty.

I remember when I was considering joining the National Guard and the recruiter had to go to Jefferson Barracks for whatever and got to drive a Humvee to there, funny we went to the maintenance garage there was this group of army mechanics just sitting around doing nothing.
Story #7 is the exact same story but occuring in Dallas Texas at White Rock Lake. Man, for a ghost that girl sure gets around. In Dallas she is known as 'The Ghost of White Rock Lake'.
The mineral Springs hotel is most definitely true!! My friends dad turned the upstairs into a huge loft in the early 2000’s and we were sitting there playing Madden on APEX tv! So I’m asking questions about the ghost as usual and then boom the ghost turn the volume to the max on the tv, the green lines for the volume went up right in our face and the remote was right there on the coffee table! I was suppose to stay over that Night, umm how bout that was a big NO
LOL! How much did you have to drink?
There were many Chinese that died working on the railroads
Have you visited the Historical Payne-Gentry House in Bridgeton?
I have. No ghosts.
I've seen and heard some stuff that says it is the most haunted place in North County. I don't know how they quantify that.
My uncle through marriage worked at the hospital in the late 70's and said they made him clean the rooms on the top floor one night after cleaning them the next morning the walls and floor were covered in blood. He said after that he told them he would never clean up there again. This guy was a crazy mf and not scared of anything. I almost didnt believe it but my cousin said it was.
I lived between two bridges in Collinsville Illinois. The home I lived in was build in the 1920's I can say living there had made me believe in ghosts. It is super haunted down there. There was also a home down the hill across from me that looked like it had been in a terrible fire. This home even had the family pictures still there. It is also now torn down. I believe it is also so haunted there because people go down in the bridges and do satanic things. I have seen dog remains along with many other animal remains down under gate 5.
I was a Carpenter I got the chance to work there we have a building it was awesome
I've lived here my entire life, and I've never seen a ghost here.
My grandparents house on 23rd street in north st louis was haunted we would footsteps walk by us and no one there
Patience Worth has a collection of writing in in Washington University Library.
I live three hours down from McPike and my house is on a parcel of the original property. I've never experienced anything paranormal. My theory is that the owners started the ghost stories because they couldn't get a restoration grant.
I believe in ghost but I do think people make up stories for the reason you mentioned
zombie road my car lights were flickering and did not want to come on! houses on the south side my ex friends home we were 23 24 was an old boarding home prior to us leaving his stepmom and father is 80 years old by the way we left backing out into the alley and a lady was standing upstairs peeking down at us a silhouette short hair dark eyes and dropped the curtain immediately as we looked back at each other and asked each other did u see that . St. louis is very haunted im a witness
'THE ONLY TIME I WATCHED PBS WHEN THEY WEREN'T ON A PLEDGE DRIVE !
All of St. Louis is haunted cuz it was built on an ancient burial ground.
All of St Louis was not built on an ancient burial ground. Just a few small parts were. But it doesn't matter either way, since it's not haunted.
My sister was married to the nephew of Father Bowdern
That was a demon.
Why he say bell fountain like that 💀
My family is from Alton
I’ve eaten lunch at the Lemp Mansion. Very cool place. Thankfully I didn’t see anything while I was eating, but I did have a feeling when I was there which made me think we don’t see everything in there.
My boss took us to lunch there a few years ago. We saw nothing but when we got the photos back, there were orbs on the staircase.
I gave my younger sister and her teen daughter a birthday overnight stay at Lemp Mansion which they had all to themselves. They tried to get me to join them but OH NO NOT I...spookie.
No, you saw everything. There are no ghosts.
@@lisalewis5664 Otherwise known as dust particles
@@joanraiford5271 I've stayed there before. Weird that the ghosts never show up when intelligent people spend the night
I have your Haunted St.Louis and Haunted 66
Hv anyone ever heard off a ghost on st. Charles rock rd. near the cemetery
Which cemetery?
There was no Palestine during the days of Jesus. There was Judea.
You say, "...stories of people sleeping in the buildings"? I say, check those buildings for carbon monoxide poisoning. If so, that could explain visual and audible hallucinations.
The buschs killed the lemps
Prohibition killed them but the bushes were the nail in the coffin. I heard they brought back Lemp beer although not the same recipe. The brewers said modern people wouldn't like old style beer
Aĺl lies ghost are not real whire folk knock it off 😂
How about America during the days of Christ. Or iPhoned
I made it 30 seconds. Nope. Not haunted.
Pretty dumb
✅ This is dumb!!!🤨
Lemp mansion IS NOT haunted
My coworker got a spirit attachment that she had to get removed at her church after an overnight stay at Lemp, so yeah it it probably is haunted. A lot of depressing shit happened there, lots of prostitution and poverty.
disagree
@@babecat2000 I’ve stayed there numerous times and have taken pictures and nothing ever occurred…it’s not haunted
@@TopGJP it doesn't work that way. It's not on demand. I spent 18 years in one house and had a few incidents.
Correct. They just tell that to the rubes to drum up business.
go to zombie road, do not collect 200 dollar, go to jail
So silly. there's no such thing as ghosts
Maybe, maybe not. If you don't enjoy the stories, you can research the truth and discover some history.
