I was born and raised in Alton and I still live in Alton it’s really nice and yes there is hunted places in Alton but other than that it’s a really nice place
no we dont... in both cases. i've lived in illinois over 35 years and its one of the blandest, most boring states in the country, and i've never even met another person that lives in this state that has seen a haunting of any kind.
Born and raised in alton. I cannot count how many times I've had "experiences" just walking around town to and from friends houses. I was born in 82. My brother died in 85, but he followed me for years after. There is so much history new and old that I think attracts more um energy.
it's beautiful at Alton, IL. right on the Mississippi River. especially in the fall of the year. and the town is haunted. I don't know if it's cause it's up on a hill by water... I don't know
Don't know how to take this, I once owned a house in Los Angeles, CA. I experienced hair raising paranormal activity. I just found a home listing in Alton that I fell in love with and planning to travel there to see and possibly purchase... then I googled, the best places to live in Alton, to get a better idea of the town and I ended up here, what a spoiler for my hopes of that Alton house being my future home.
I have been in Alton my entire life. I have never seen a ghost. I own my home...no ghost. Rented a house before...no ghost. My parents own 2 houses....no ghost
I grew up in Alton, still live in Alton. My art teacher had told us about a story of how when she was 15 the rock spring park was closed down due to something tearing things in half. She had told us a dear had been ripped in half and placed in a tree. I don’t remember the full story and I’m trying to find more about it.
want a paranormal adventure visit any little town in Ilinois Illinois is a haunted state I am a truck driver and when I was OTR I hated driving in the night in Illinois thank God I am local now
Sony Sonic5 Im a truck driver and i swear i love driving at night specially in the summer with the windows down and the fresh silent air i love it. Always looking around to see if i spot something unusual
you need to lay off the meth, mister trucker. i've lived in or near alton illinois for 35 years now, my family has lived here since long before i was born and none of us have ever seen any kind of hauntings, nor have we even heard stories of such things from others.
Ok But you are just another person making a comment that has not described anything you have seen or your experiences....You just stated its haunted like everyone else does.I hate when people do this.This is why no one believes.
One of my favorite places to go is mineral springs mall... I love the eery feeling... going into the zen shops, slowly walking down the silent halls, they are correct. She screams. But they don't scare me. Only intrigue me.
@@evastood4539 yeah I mean policy wise/money wise/taxes wise not the best. But I've lived in quite a few of our states here and Illinois has a special beauty about it. And Chicago is the best city in the fuckn world, so...there's that too
In my country there is one country named Alor Setar there is an abandoned and haunted hospital there rumors said there was a women left behind while the hospital was burning
Yes Alton is VERY haunted walking past the graveyards you just get a bad feeling it's even worse in the bluffs and when you go to Brussels which is not to far from Alton you have to take the ferry to get there but it's just as bad😩🙄😒 in Brussels you can feel and if it's late enough see the spirits as your driving through 😱😱😱😱 if you love scary shit you will definitely love Alton Illinois
I grew up in Alton and lived the first 17 years of my life 4 houses from the McPike mansion. It was abandoned then and we went inside many times. The cellar area was definitely the spookiest.
my thoughts exactly. i've lived in illinois, in Alton and/or within a 20 minute drive for over 35 years. all of my family lives here, and i've never in my life even heard of a haunting around here.
I live an hour and a half north up in pittsfield, go there all the time. Been to mcpike mansion a lot. Very haunted town. Id say the water and the limestone definately plays a severe factor.
That limestone is on half the buildings downtown, yeah I've heard it holds a lot of energy. You think the basement walls of McPike has any limestone from the prison, or was the prison still standing when the mansion was built?
@@JerryAsbury1985 The limestone from the prison WAS put in to make the basement of the McPike mansion cause the prison was torn down in 1865 except what is still standing and the McPike mansion was built in 1869 so yes, they used that rock and made partition walls all around Alton with this same limestone also used in the building of a lot of houses in Alton. I'm an old history buff, born in Alton and raised in Wood River. Every house I've ever lived in in the area there has been some kind of haunting.
@@kathyhenderson2114 lol you sure know more then me, I wasn't aware of when the prison was torn down, I knew the basement was full of limestone, but didn't know it was from the prison.
@@JerryAsbury1985Lol...yep I'm just older, but I LOVE history and reading up on a lot of things is where I get my info. Heck reading Troy Taylors books has helped me a lot. There's SO much more than what they talk about in this video. People don't know about. Hopp Hallow in Alton- very scary vibes Alton cemetery Sunflower Island Unitarian church where the pastor hung himself. Christian Hill area, most houses there are haunted. Milton school...where the janitor hung himself. Just the houses along Henry St. are OLD and haunted. Take for instance the Trumbull house. Trumbull was in the senate at the time Abraham Lincoln came to Alton to debate and Lincoln stayed at the Trumbull house. People come to Alton, they need to check out the Lemp mansion in St. Louis, Mo. too.
@@kathyhenderson2114 lol I was born in 85' so that's why I never knew. But besides that, there's an apt on 4th st. A 4 apt house, old red brick apt. It's haunted, when I was a baby we lived there, & my dad seen a ghost woman, & my mom had nightmares a couple times, my uncle believes he seen the same ghost as my dad, but he's still skeptical & I don't get it lol
I was born in this town and still live here there was a prison in Alton and very bad things happened there and very bad people was in prison there. The prison stones was given away to build homes those homes are haunted. Alton Had a dead man on display in the window of downtown shoe store his name was Deaf Bill he can be looked up online I seen him dry as leather no clothes on him but a loin cloth later a church group buried him. The mayor and police are corrupt Alton is a Bad place to live nothing to see Here, I suggest going elsewhere to a better place😁
Alton people wya 🙌 I’ve caught 2 videos in my home within the last few months with solid proof of paranormal activity. Light anomalies, noises from an unexplained source, etc. my friends house is also very haunted and her house is on top of an ancient burial ground :)
Could be true with Cahokia mounds just miles away from Alton. I was born in Alton, raised in Wood River and I love history. Every single house I've lived in in this area has had some sort of hauntings.
I never been to Alton but I spent 34 years in the ss of Chicago and visited " haunted places " Manteno hospital really freaked me out it's a good thing they tore it down
I was looking up videos on that place yesterday, it's too bad they demolish places like that, it's a part of history. I know there was probably evil there, but why couldn't they did something else with it, like a real haunted tourist attraction you know?
@@JerryAsbury1985 I know this is a real late response lol, but I've got some good info on the place. I grew up in Manteno, and there is most definitely still a lot of evil there. I've seen some messed up paranormal related stuff, including inhuman-seeming figures very boldly showing themselves, with multiple friends as witnesses. Deep in the woods there's still a boat load of original structures mostly small and a couple bigger ones, and that's where things get dark real quick. Spending time there definitely changed my view on some things
@@illinoisvisuals There's a lot of ghost in the historic part of my city, used to have a prison downtown, infact they still have a piece of wall for tourist or locals to check out. They get activity, like orbs but I haven't heard anything about full body apparition.
I thought it was haunted because of the town being so high up and surrounded by water. electricity. Williamsburg hill in tower hill Illinois reminds me of this town. it's I think 800 feet up. and is very haunted also
I think the ghost buster truck is a little over the top! It’s people like that that give legitimate paranormal investigators a bad rap, and intern, about public image, an image of a fraudster with their bag of tricks trying to rip people off by making them think their house is haunted, but nothing could be further from the truth. I did not choose to have these abilities, I didn’t choose to become an investigator, it chose me, and frankly, if it had never chosen me I would’ve never sought after it, because I’ve experienced things that I definitely did not want to, I’ve seen and heard things that would make anyone’s blood run cold, and have seen enough things to give me nightmares until the day I die. When I was a small boy, I didn’t understand what was happening to me, because I could hear, see, and speak, to people that no one else could see. When I was small my parents just assumed I had an imaginary friend like many children do, but as I got older and continue to do so, they begin to get worried and took me to a psychiatrist. What exactly am I referring to you ask? Well remember the movie the sixth sense? I was that little boy, I would wake up in the middle of the night to see either a dark shadow with red glowing eyes or an actual solid person, often with horrible deformities from accidents that led to their demise, standing right beside my bed! I used to wake up screaming in utter terror....Thank God, literally, that the psychiatrist my parents took me to see was very open minded, and very well-versed in the world of the paranormal. I will never forget the look on my parents faces, because they expected the psychiatrist diagnosed me with a mental illness, give me some pills, and that would be the end of it, but instead they’ve got the psychiatrist sitting them down and telling them that their son, i.e. - me, was born with abilities that we all have, turned up to full volume, where is the average person is totally unaware that they have these abilities. He told my parents that I was a natural born psychic/medium, and empath, plus several other abilities as in remote sensing, we are by I can either touch an object, or look at a picture, and I am instantly transported to where ever the picture or item came from and who was attached to it, and why. My father began to yell at the psychiatrist threatening to sue him, but deep down my mother always believed and managed to calm my father down, And finally got him to except the truth. After that my life was a lot easier. I was around 10 years old at that time, and in those 10 years I saw and heard things that it’s Garrett the crap out of most adults, let alone a small boy, but I got used to it. After I met with the psychiatrist he put me in touch with several other people who helped develop and understand my abilities and skills, so by the time I entered my teens, I was already an accomplished paranormal investigator and eliminator. I have learned long ago not to care what other people think, I have to live my life the way I see fit, no one else is going to do it for me, and I cannot allow other peoples opinions to alter my future, so I go on, helping when I can, excepting and learning to use, The multiple abilities that I was born with. Thankfully I have managed to stay out of the spotlight, and away from the media, because both of which always greatly exaggerate the truth, and I was already having a difficult time adjusting to life with all these extra people but no one else could see except me. I lost count years ago as to how many people I’ve helped crossover, but it is also incredibly rewarding knowing that you’re able to help people move on with their life, to the next life that is. There is only one thing I will not do, and that is, to investigate anything it may even remotely be demonic, eggs it frightens the hell out of me, pardon the pun. I do have the knowledge and the tools to fight against it, but I have seen it go horribly wrong, to the point where it has absolutely destroyed countless peoples lives who thought they could handle it. I simply will not take that chance, people have absolutely no idea just how powerful the world of the paranormal truly is, and what exactly it is capable of doing. I’ve literally seen investigators lose their mind, and end up in psychiatric hospitals after countless attacks by demonic entities. Let’s not forget that these entities were never human, they never walk to the earth in human form, they are creatures of pure malevolence from hell it’s self, whose only goal, is to create misery, chaos, and disaster everywhere they go. They don’t hesitate to let you know that they’re there, I’ve seen demonic possession, I’ve seen exorcisms, neither of which I want anything to do with, simply because it just scares me to death. Yes, even professional investigators can get scared. Luckily, cases involving demonic possession’s are extremely rare and represent not even 1% of all the cases I’ve seen, over 99% of the time it’s merely a lost spirit desperate for help, reaching out to the people around them to get that help, not even realizing that they are scaring the crap out of those people. Put simply, all the ghost really is, is a person without a body, I’m not afraid of people, so I have no reason to be afraid of ghosts, if they were nice in life than they’re nice and deaf, if they were assholes in life then they are probably going to be assholes in death, but being an asshole does not mean being demonic. I thought with some pretty nasty spirits, but every single one of them want but one thing, help from the living, so they can find their way to the next life. Some are quite resistant and don’t want to leave as they don’t realize they’re dead, and can be very territorial, especially if it’s been a home they’ve lived in their whole life. It does take quite a bit of convincing sometimes, but luckily I’m able to hear everything they say, and I can have a fluent conversation with them as if I was talking to a living person, and after I get them calm down, I get them to except the fact that they are indeed dead, and that another life is waiting for them on the other side. It normally takes a few days to complete an investigation, and get rid of the spirit from the home or area it has been occupying, and then get them to move onto the next life where they belong. I have dealt with some pretty evil entities, but not demonic, just evil, and all those ones can be quite frightening to, I still do everything in my power to help them to the best of my ability. I’m proud to say that I’ve never had a case that I wasn’t able to solve, well, let’s rephrase, I have never accept a case that I couldn’t resolve, because I won’t accept a case if it is demonic in nature.
I hear that Decatur IL is supposed to be pretty creepy as well. But then again they say the same about Gettysburg pa.i guess all towns have some spooky stories or urban legends.
I was born and raised in Alton, and I hate to burst your bubble, but there is absolutely nothing haunted about the town. Well, maybe in the imagination of morons.
When the Americans label a place "The most haunted in the world" and it always happens to be in the US! Result of a meticulous and thorough investigation around the world...
I do not put any belief yet as far as hand held ghost devices, the k2 meters, ghost boxes that translate spirit voices, the flashlight theory, digital voice recorders, none of it, detecting ghosts with them is all still theory which has not been nor never will be solidly proven. There is a greater degree of uncertainty in these devices still. I will say i do believe in spirits nonetheless, and have experienced things that are unexplainable.
Bro I live in Alton it’s not the most hunted town, but it’s adventures, people who live in Alton such as me and more don’t really care or pay attention to the hunted stuff we just live Alton fully. But it is scary people say a part of my school is hunted but it’s not like so scary
Your question has been answered, but yeah 2-3 hours south of Springfield, all depending on how fast you drive lol. I haul ass on I55, but watch close for state patrol lol. I've also had a couple close calls on I55 about the same place up closer to Chicago, I wasn't driving either time. Once my mom hit black ice & sent us across the meddian back onto the southbound lane, Idk how it didn't roll us. Then we were headed to Indiana, my grandma looked to the floor for a sec, then we started going into the grass, she tried to gain control, then we were spinning outta control, I think she pulled the wheel to hard to get back on the road. Sorry for the long message, but everyone needs to be careful on I55 in Illinois.
There's only been one account of a shark caught in illinois, of course a bull shark, caught in the 30's or 40's in central illinois. There may be more.
I went to Alton first there ain't nothing small about this town they have a casino for Christ sake yet I kept hearing this was the most haunted small town in America it's a city not a town.
This seemed interesting to an extent until you had your kid "shake hands and talk with Cassandra".. You should be ashamed for producing such garbage. Giving Alton a bad name
wait a minute....the MOST haunted town in the usa is Atchinson, KS and MOST haunted city in the usa and the world is New Orleans, in my home state...so this town doesn't come near to these places
They say that shit about every house or manison ect. If the place has a or several demons, they'll claim it to be one of the most haunted places in the country or world. I'm from Alton, & yes it's extremely haunted, although I haven't really had any experiences. But yes very haunted, but the most haunted city in the country, um that might be stretching a little. We've had a gruesome history here, an old civil war prison that was built with limestone rock, we got underground tunnels, we got like 5 cemeteries which one don't have any grave stones, but it's got a monument on a mound they say they stock piled the prisoners. We also have had a bunch of violent projects a.k.a. the ghetto. Around 2000ish a cab driver was ambushed & shot in the head twice over like 40 something cents. His mistake was turning around in a dead end, that the dispatcher told him not to do. I used to drive for the same company, the dispatcher is your lifeline in a way. What they tell us to do or not to do, we listen cause it might save our life, if we don't listen we can get sent home. So yeah very haunted.
@@JerryAsbury1985 but man, come to New Orleans though, if you haven't been. I'm telling you, it's very haunted! Alton, I've heard many stories, and it is one of the most haunted in the nation with shepherdstown, WV.
@@lsubandtrumpet2014 Lol I'm not doubting it a bit, I've never been there but I know they've got a nasty gruesome history too. I know about the La Lorie mansion I think that's the name, Nicholas Cage purchased the place if that tells you anything lol. He don't own it now, but yeah I'm sure slavery was bad down there. I got a question you might have an answer to, have you heard of a movie called the St. francisville experiment? It's like a home movie, 4 college student film makers go into a mansion that's haunted, & they didn't last all night like they were supposed to. I'm just wondering what Mansion it was, I've always wondered.
@@JerryAsbury1985 I've been to the myrtles plantation in st. Francisville, LA about 28 miles north of our second largest city and capital city of Baton Rouge. It is something I can say that! The most haunted bed and breakfast and plantation in the world!
They used a Minecraft water effect lol

Wait he was talking about limestone captures spirits bro I live in Indiana it has the most limestone
I never been to Alton but I spent 34 years in the ss of Chicago and visited " haunted places " Manteno hospital really freaked me out it's a good thing they tore it down
What was going on in there
@@chevycruze1406 It's a old mental institution, with angry spirits what you think was going on lol?
I was looking up videos on that place yesterday, it's too bad they demolish places like that, it's a part of history. I know there was probably evil there, but why couldn't they did something else with it, like a real haunted tourist attraction you know?
@@JerryAsbury1985 I know this is a real late response lol, but I've got some good info on the place. I grew up in Manteno, and there is most definitely still a lot of evil there. I've seen some messed up paranormal related stuff, including inhuman-seeming figures very boldly showing themselves, with multiple friends as witnesses. Deep in the woods there's still a boat load of original structures mostly small and a couple bigger ones, and that's where things get dark real quick. Spending time there definitely changed my view on some things
@@illinoisvisuals There's a lot of ghost in the historic part of my city, used to have a prison downtown, infact they still have a piece of wall for tourist or locals to check out. They get activity, like orbs but I haven't heard anything about full body apparition.
I thought it was haunted because of the town being so high up and surrounded by water. electricity.
Williamsburg hill in tower hill Illinois reminds me of this town. it's I think 800 feet up. and is very haunted also
The freaking dude is wearing a Cape LOL.
I LAUGHED TOO ..LOL
I think the ghost buster truck is a little over the top! It’s people like that that give legitimate paranormal investigators a bad rap, and intern, about public image, an image of a fraudster with their bag of tricks trying to rip people off by making them think their house is haunted, but nothing could be further from the truth. I did not choose to have these abilities, I didn’t choose to become an investigator, it chose me, and frankly, if it had never chosen me I would’ve never sought after it, because I’ve experienced things that I definitely did not want to, I’ve seen and heard things that would make anyone’s blood run cold, and have seen enough things to give me nightmares until the day I die. When I was a small boy, I didn’t understand what was happening to me, because I could hear, see, and speak, to people that no one else could see. When I was small my parents just assumed I had an imaginary friend like many children do, but as I got older and continue to do so, they begin to get worried and took me to a psychiatrist. What exactly am I referring to you ask? Well remember the movie the sixth sense? I was that little boy, I would wake up in the middle of the night to see either a dark shadow with red glowing eyes or an actual solid person, often with horrible deformities from accidents that led to their demise, standing right beside my bed! I used to wake up screaming in utter terror....Thank God, literally, that the psychiatrist my parents took me to see was very open minded, and very well-versed in the world of the paranormal. I will never forget the look on my parents faces, because they expected the psychiatrist diagnosed me with a mental illness, give me some pills, and that would be the end of it, but instead they’ve got the psychiatrist sitting them down and telling them that their son, i.e. - me, was born with abilities that we all have, turned up to full volume, where is the average person is totally unaware that they have these abilities. He told my parents that I was a natural born psychic/medium, and empath, plus several other abilities as in remote sensing, we are by I can either touch an object, or look at a picture, and I am instantly transported to where ever the picture or item came from and who was attached to it, and why. My father began to yell at the psychiatrist threatening to sue him, but deep down my mother always believed and managed to calm my father down, And finally got him to except the truth. After that my life was a lot easier. I was around 10 years old at that time, and in those 10 years I saw and heard things that it’s Garrett the crap out of most adults, let alone a small boy, but I got used to it. After I met with the psychiatrist he put me in touch with several other people who helped develop and understand my abilities and skills, so by the time I entered my teens, I was already an accomplished paranormal investigator and eliminator. I have learned long ago not to care what other people think, I have to live my life the way I see fit, no one else is going to do it for me, and I cannot allow other peoples opinions to alter my future, so I go on, helping when I can, excepting and learning to use, The multiple abilities that I was born with. Thankfully I have managed to stay out of the spotlight, and away from the media, because both of which always greatly exaggerate the truth, and I was already having a difficult time adjusting to life with all these extra people but no one else could see except me. I lost count years ago as to how many people I’ve helped crossover, but it is also incredibly rewarding knowing that you’re able to help people move on with their life, to the next life that is. There is only one thing I will not do, and that is, to investigate anything it may even remotely be demonic, eggs it frightens the hell out of me, pardon the pun. I do have the knowledge and the tools to fight against it, but I have seen it go horribly wrong, to the point where it has absolutely destroyed countless peoples lives who thought they could handle it. I simply will not take that chance, people have absolutely no idea just how powerful the world of the paranormal truly is, and what exactly it is capable of doing. I’ve literally seen investigators lose their mind, and end up in psychiatric hospitals after countless attacks by demonic entities. Let’s not forget that these entities were never human, they never walk to the earth in human form, they are creatures of pure malevolence from hell it’s self, whose only goal, is to create misery, chaos, and disaster everywhere they go. They don’t hesitate to let you know that they’re there, I’ve seen demonic possession, I’ve seen exorcisms, neither of which I want anything to do with, simply because it just scares me to death. Yes, even professional investigators can get scared. Luckily, cases involving demonic possession’s are extremely rare and represent not even 1% of all the cases I’ve seen, over 99% of the time it’s merely a lost spirit desperate for help, reaching out to the people around them to get that help, not even realizing that they are scaring the crap out of those people. Put simply, all the ghost really is, is a person without a body, I’m not afraid of people, so I have no reason to be afraid of ghosts, if they were nice in life than they’re nice and deaf, if they were assholes in life then they are probably going to be assholes in death, but being an asshole does not mean being demonic. I thought with some pretty nasty spirits, but every single one of them want but one thing, help from the living, so they can find their way to the next life. Some are quite resistant and don’t want to leave as they don’t realize they’re dead, and can be very territorial, especially if it’s been a home they’ve lived in their whole life. It does take quite a bit of convincing sometimes, but luckily I’m able to hear everything they say, and I can have a fluent conversation with them as if I was talking to a living person, and after I get them calm down, I get them to except the fact that they are indeed dead, and that another life is waiting for them on the other side. It normally takes a few days to complete an investigation, and get rid of the spirit from the home or area it has been occupying, and then get them to move onto the next life where they belong. I have dealt with some pretty evil entities, but not demonic, just evil, and all those ones can be quite frightening to, I still do everything in my power to help them to the best of my ability. I’m proud to say that I’ve never had a case that I wasn’t able to solve, well, let’s rephrase, I have never accept a case that I couldn’t resolve, because I won’t accept a case if it is demonic in nature.
I hear that Decatur IL is supposed to be pretty creepy as well. But then again they say the same about Gettysburg pa.i guess all towns have some spooky stories or urban legends.
Decatur has a prison and Lincoln Illinois has a prison those places are creepy ILLNOIS sucks!
You should never use children it' wrong they young and have impressionable minds and it can influence them and hurt them later on in life
Sorry but I do believe Savannah Georgia is the most haunted town in America
Yeah come to Alton and feel Cassandra.
Home town babyyy
I was born and raised in Alton, and I hate to burst your bubble, but there is absolutely nothing haunted about the town. Well, maybe in the imagination of morons.
Brian Chase : thank for the truth!!!!!!
Where’s the footage that you caught in the camera as that old man said?
Wow the lights flashed.
I've saw different neon colors thru the years & different shapes .
2:26 did they really use the Minecraft water effect😂😂😂
When the Americans label a place "The most haunted in the world" and it always happens to be in the US! Result of a meticulous and thorough investigation around the world...
Hey, I live in Alton.
I'm not being nosey where is it
@@420countrybrooke9 Alton is in Illinois, right across the Mississippi river from St. Louis, Mo.
@@kathyhenderson2114 oh ok
I do not put any belief yet as far as hand held ghost devices, the k2 meters, ghost boxes that translate spirit voices, the flashlight theory, digital voice recorders, none of it, detecting ghosts with them is all still theory which has not been nor never will be solidly proven. There is a greater degree of uncertainty in these devices still. I will say i do believe in spirits nonetheless, and have experienced things that are unexplainable.
Who ya gonna call? 🚫👻🚫
Bro I live in Alton it’s not the most hunted town, but it’s adventures, people who live in Alton such as me and more don’t really care or pay attention to the hunted stuff we just live Alton fully. But it is scary people say a part of my school is hunted but it’s not like so scary
Wait I just saw two no three videos on other towns that are the most haunted in America
Damn what happened to the audio when they went to the first interview
Is this near Springfield Illinois?!
Sp3ctral 3rmac no it’s further south, it’s close to St. Louis
Sp3ctral 3rmac
Yes
I think Springfield is about 2 hours away
We are really close to St. Louis tho. Only about 35min
Your question has been answered, but yeah 2-3 hours south of Springfield, all depending on how fast you drive lol. I haul ass on I55, but watch close for state patrol lol. I've also had a couple close calls on I55 about the same place up closer to Chicago, I wasn't driving either time. Once my mom hit black ice & sent us across the meddian back onto the southbound lane, Idk how it didn't roll us. Then we were headed to Indiana, my grandma looked to the floor for a sec, then we started going into the grass, she tried to gain control, then we were spinning outta control, I think she pulled the wheel to hard to get back on the road. Sorry for the long message, but everyone needs to be careful on I55 in Illinois.
Hey I live here
I hear the rivers there are infested with sharks, too!
Sundog7
They are 100% not filled with sharks I live right by the Mississippi River
There's only been one account of a shark caught in illinois, of course a bull shark, caught in the 30's or 40's in central illinois. There may be more.
Infested.The lakes and rivers are salt water.
The Mississippi river is deep, but I've never heard of sharks lol.

I live here
Where's Alton?
In Illinois about 30 mins northeast of St.Louis.
I went to Alton first there ain't nothing small about this town they have a casino for Christ sake yet I kept hearing this was the most haunted small town in America it's a city not a town.
This seemed interesting to an extent until you had your kid "shake hands and talk with Cassandra".. You should be ashamed for producing such garbage. Giving Alton a bad name
Im sorry to say but you could do without that music.
Nooooooo, that's child abuse.
wait a minute....the MOST haunted town in the usa is Atchinson, KS and MOST haunted city in the usa and the world is New Orleans, in my home state...so this town doesn't come near to these places
They say that shit about every house or manison ect. If the place has a or several demons, they'll claim it to be one of the most haunted places in the country or world. I'm from Alton, & yes it's extremely haunted, although I haven't really had any experiences. But yes very haunted, but the most haunted city in the country, um that might be stretching a little. We've had a gruesome history here, an old civil war prison that was built with limestone rock, we got underground tunnels, we got like 5 cemeteries which one don't have any grave stones, but it's got a monument on a mound they say they stock piled the prisoners. We also have had a bunch of violent projects a.k.a. the ghetto. Around 2000ish a cab driver was ambushed & shot in the head twice over like 40 something cents. His mistake was turning around in a dead end, that the dispatcher told him not to do. I used to drive for the same company, the dispatcher is your lifeline in a way. What they tell us to do or not to do, we listen cause it might save our life, if we don't listen we can get sent home. So yeah very haunted.
@@JerryAsbury1985 but man, come to New Orleans though, if you haven't been. I'm telling you, it's very haunted! Alton, I've heard many stories, and it is one of the most haunted in the nation with shepherdstown, WV.
@@lsubandtrumpet2014 Lol I'm not doubting it a bit, I've never been there but I know they've got a nasty gruesome history too. I know about the La Lorie mansion I think that's the name, Nicholas Cage purchased the place if that tells you anything lol. He don't own it now, but yeah I'm sure slavery was bad down there. I got a question you might have an answer to, have you heard of a movie called the St. francisville experiment? It's like a home movie, 4 college student film makers go into a mansion that's haunted, & they didn't last all night like they were supposed to. I'm just wondering what Mansion it was, I've always wondered.
@@JerryAsbury1985 I've been to the myrtles plantation in st. Francisville, LA about 28 miles north of our second largest city and capital city of Baton Rouge. It is something I can say that! The most haunted bed and breakfast and plantation in the world!
@@JerryAsbury1985 yes, I hear la laurie and she owned slaves
😨😨😨😨😨😨😨😨
Wow
