    My husband grew up down the street from the graveyard it's in! He and his mom have some super creepy stories from when they lived there.

    i feel like he would respect their wishes, but would take in their spirit to live with him after they had died. he seems like the kind of spirit who is there BECAUSE he committed suicide by jumping off of the bridge in the first place. (i don't live in New Jersey and don't know anything about this, this is all my imagination, but still)

    awe, its like the old goats gruff but sweeter. I want to go make friends with this little boy. I wonder if his parents tossed him off the bridge like another story I have heard... The mother and the father were perfect people, no flaws just beautiful. They couldn't say the same for there child. He was "a ugly little beast" the parents couldn't let anyone notice how horrid there family was so they tossed him of a bridge into the river below. A year later they gave birth to a beautiful little girl. Flawless, just like her parents. She grew up to be around 3 years old. the girl and her mother went on a walk one fall morning over the bridge. once they were on the middle of the bridge the little girl grabbed onto the mother's leg with fear. "What wrong?" the mother asked. "mama, please. I love you! I will be good. please don't throw me off the bridge again!"

    have actually read stories about her; though NH doesn't have a "good" reputation itself as far as executing women in their small villages/towns that their neighbors accused of witchcraft. during my own visits to NH it always felt a bit creepy as all townsfolk still seem to treat outside visitors with a great deal of suspicion... guess i was rather unfamiliar w/ what seemed like their unfriendly ways & felt like i amongst a horde of very old fashioned, puritans.

    If you hear it off in the distance, run. If you hear it relatively close, lay down on your belly, keep your face to the ground, and close your eyes. Stay like that until you no longer hear them.

    The gate to Hell is inside a chicken coop? That explains why all the chickens have been laying deviled eggs.

    Every park has a rumor about this. It keeps millions of people from taking “souvenirs” from the parks. Works better than any signs !

    Much like the Goat Man, this one just makes me laugh for some reason. Probably because I keep picturing a full grown man in a bunny costume hopping around carrying an axe.
