“AND THE AWARD FOR MOST HAUNTED TOWN GOES TO . . .”
Posted on February 3rd, 2010 by Joshua Gee
Hulu claims New Hope, New Jersey, is America’s Most Haunted Town. This does not seem entirely certain, based on the evidence provided.
Fun viewing, though, and FREE.
Some say Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, is actually America’s Most Haunted Town, because so many died on the battlefield there.
But Loyd “Professor Paranormal” Auerbach, who was featured in ENCYCLOPEDIA HORRIFICA, always argues that ghosts appear wherever the living appear. That is to say, battlefields and cemeteries don’t necessarily make for the best haunts.
But every-day homes? Prime real estate for the post-corporeal crowd after dark.
What are some other seemingly ordinary towns that might qualify for the dubious honor of America’s Most Haunted?
Filed under: "FREE!"
Las Vegas is definitely very haunted.
Lakewood is haunted as fuck, you wouldn’t believe it.
Oh, Columbus, Ohio.
What about that one place where you went to a house and you saw an old man DJ? Where’s that again?
It’s in California.
Okay. That works.
What about Cuttersville? Unless it’s not a real city, I found it in that Cat book I told you guys earlier about.
i had always believed New Orleans to be the most haunted town in America.
Why, because of some of the battles there?
…What about Boston? There was lik, the Boston Massacre, and then the Revolutionary war came up, Boston has to have SOME ghosts.
@ DJ: This past weekend I was in Columbus, Ohio.
Salem, Massachusetts.
The Boston Massacre was only 7 people killed, it’s not a massacre.
During the Salem Witch Trials, thirty-three or more innocent people were killed.
wheres joshua gee?
i lived in a hunted house in newyork too once
Cool.
Salem witch trials, one hundred people tried, about thirty hung, one guy crushed to death by a stone.(I WOULD remember that…)
What’s that?
In The Crucible, these girls are caught dancing in the woods and the town immidiately assumes they are practicing witchcraft. Panicking the girl begin accusing neighbours of setting spells on them and since it’s based on the Salem Witch Trials you probably already know what happens.
OOOoh, I think I’ve heard of that before.
I heard from the seniors in my school that it’s a good book.
Yes, it’s an excellent book.
On a completely unrelated note, how on earth did Vans become considered emo? They’re the farthest thing from emo! Converse are emo! Vans kill all that come before them! Vans are magic from the 70s! They are second only to combat boots!
I dunno, I think it’s all the emos wearing them now. Also, I have converse, I love them. Also, I’m getting paranoid, I keep seeing a faint shadow behind me moving.
Hey, Converse is comfy, how does that make it emo!?
Emos wear them because they’re old-school and skater, although they’re interested in crappy new trends and none of them skate. Granted, I don’t skate either, but I wish I did. I don’t buy a skateboard and act like a skater either.
How I used to use my mom’s old skateboard before my brothers broke it(I think they did):
Sit on it
Grab hold
Roll on it to the edge of the driveway
Run away from the street so I don’t get run over
I was about seven years old when my brothers started it. I can’t seriously skateboard for my life. I’d probably be like those little kids on TV shows just learning how to ride, “Daddy! How do I stop!?”
It’s my brother’s birthday celebration today and ICE CREAM CAKE IS COLD.
It’s ice cream cake.
I played with dry ice in science today, it was awesome.
I put dry ice into Balsa-or-whatever vinegar and sprite because my mom didn’t have regular vinegar. Last year.
I like the way dry ice screeches when you press it hard enough against metal. or was it hot surfaces? I dunno my science teacher did it on a hot plate…
I love science experiments.
dry ice is fun. but people get burned when it touches bare flesh.
Only if you keep contact long enough. My teacher lets us play table football with it.
Where have you been man? Also, Jay and Silent Bob on my name.
HI GUYS I GOT AN AWESOME NEW TWENTY TWO INCH COMPUTER AND THAT’S WHY I’VE BEEN GONE! SUUUGAAAAR!
GUMMY BEARS!
“I’m a gummy bear, a gummy, gummy bear, a gummy gummy gummy gummy gummy, gummy bear…”
You know, he says other things than gummy? there’s funny, lucky, yummy in there too.
Oh, you know that? I got it from my little brother. The one that beats me up. He started screaming it during our piano lessons one day.
I’ve been waiting for a response worthy to reply to. I’ve been fucking bored.
Gummy bears are yummy.
Gummi Bears, we are the Gummi Bears…
Jesus, I’m having a nostalgia attack!
A what attack?
I’m not even gonna bother with a dignified response to that. So, in response, I give you this. FUCK YOU.
Hey, don’t blasme me for being clueless! Blame my idea that being isolated is most of my life!
Poor you, DJ.
HAIL SADDAM A GO-GO!
*laughs*
(rolls eyes) I didn’t get a WORD of that.
I’m so SICK (sick!) Of (of!) YOOOUUU!
I think we established that a long time ago.^.^
I’m naturally annoying. Don’t blame me for knowing nothing about the world. Blame my parents for never helping me learn about it.
ENDLESS APOCALYPSE…
2012! Movie was awesome.
No, it was fucking awful.
I WILL CRUSH YOUR ANTI-CHRIST…
Well, seeing as it’s one of the horror movies I’ve ever seen in my life. My. Entire. LIFE. It was a good horror movie.
Uh, I don’t thkn that’s possible. You’d probably be long dead by the time Anti-Christ comes around.
GOD, DON’T YOU GET IT, THEY’RE LYRICS.
IT’S NOT EVEN A FUCKING HORROR MOVIE, IT’S NOT EVEN CLOSE. I Am Legend is more of a horror movie than 2012. Fuck, my keyboard’s space is fucked. Goddammit.
I Am Legend is a good movie.
Well, sorr-ree! Seeing as the only scary movies I’ve seen are The Eye and 2012, I WOULD think they were horror movies!
BABYRAPER…
O-O Gonna walk away now….
So Creeps, I’m curious, how is the movie 2012?
Crappy.
Imposter.
I have my name linked.
It’s about something called crust…..disintegration, I think? Anywho, it causes a bunch of earthquakes, and huge tidal waves, and the government is trying to save a lot of people.
It is crappy.
You’ve seen better, I haven’t, kay?
Interesting. But how do you save people if there’s no safe place to go?
They made a-Wait, before I say, it’s okay if I’m a movie spoiler right now, right?
No.
Also, an airship would’ve been a way better idea.
Yeah. But they tried to make it in likeness of the Bible and everything.
Adam, the guy who’s an ancestor of every man on the planet, is from a tribe in Africa, which is the most likely place where the Garden of Eden is. That’s what scientists say.
They say The Garden of Eden is The Fertile Crescent.
Isn’t that in Asia? I watched the Smithsonian channel HD, they said it was somewhere in Africa. Which, apparently, is where all (human)life on Earth began or something like that. That’s what I got from it.
Nooope. As far as anyone knows the first human beings resembling us today was way back in Asia. That’s the home of Jerusalem, where all three major world religions got their start.
Huh. Okay. I got confused too easily. ^.^ As usual.
*smirks* It happens to everyone.
Yeah, what she said.
