What's up people hope you’re having an awesome day, Im your host Ayman Hasan and welcome
back to another video here at most amazing top 10.
Haunted room, bad, haunted house, pretty atrocious, haunted town, run for your freaking life my
friend.
I just dont do well with haunted things, its really a problem, i just thought about it
and if i had to pick idk if id rather see a ghost or be possessed by one.
Seeing one would stop my heart beating and at least you dont know whats going on when
youre possessed but do i really wanna not be in control like that?
Idk. but either way this is the Top 10 Haunted Towns You Should Never Visit.
Starting us off with number 10 is Wichita Falls, Texas.
And surprisingly there are a lot of haunted towns in the state of Texas, there are a lot
on this list and i feel like they probably make the record for most haunted towns in
America.
But either way Wichita Falls is filled and i mean filled with haunting stories.
Theres a site in town called The Witch’s Gate that used to be a mansion before it burned
down in the 70s.
After the man of the house died, his wife went a bit insane turning to things like witchcraft
to try and cope.
She somehow burned the mansion down killing her two sons with it.
Another story claims the sons were robbed and it was the thief that sent the house on
fire.
The boys haunt the area till this day and i'm not surprised.
Id be pissed too.
Another famous one is the White Sanitarium, presently a private residence it used to be
a mental hospital in the 20s.
After the place closed down people have seen a group of men sitting and playing cards,
perhaps the hospitals old staff, but more famously theyve seen a woman in nurses clothes
roaming the building.
Theres also Pinky’s Cave which is a 3 mile drainage ditch, kids used to hang out there
years ago but now its filled with eerie sounds and homeless people as well as the ghost of
a woman and her child who drowned inside the tunnel during a storm.
Coming in at number 9 is Pluckley, Kent.
Pluckley is a small village in Kent that was named the most haunted village in england
by Guinness World Records in 1989.
So i dont wanna overhype it up but at the same time clearly it deserves the hype.
Its said that 12-16 ghosts haunt the village and surrounding area.
The list includes a screaming man who works at the village brickworks and fell to his
death, another is a highwayman who was pinned to a tree with a sword.
That tree was soon named Fright Corner and thats where his ghost looms everyday.
The Watercress woman is the ghost of a woman who used to sit on a bridge drinking gin and
smoking her pipe while selling watercress.
Youd assume she drowned in the river she sat near but the reality was a lot more grim.
Its said she dropped gin all over herself and accidentally set herself alight on the
bridge.
Theres also the ghost of a principal who hung himself and was found by his students, on
Elvey farm which dates back to 1406 theres the ghost of Edward Brett who shot himself
in the dairy, his last words to his wife were ‘i will do it’ and thats what can be heard
whispered around the farm.
Then of course theres the white lady and the red lady because make no mistake there is
always a white lady ghost.
Thats 7 ghosts already and thats not even the end of it.
Based on the deaths in the list i get the feeling theres an external force about the
village that made people slightly suicidal.
At number 8 we have Savannah, Georgia.
Apparently it is widespread knowledge that Savannah is the most haunted city in America
and thankfully ive never been.
The town was given this title because literally every building in there is haunted.
Every building has a story, every building has its own ghosts, its like Savannah is more
for the ghosts than it is for the living.
The Hamilton-Turner Inn is home to the ghost of a man smoking a cigar on its roof as well
as little children.
Whos children are they?
God knows.
Dubbed one of the best haunted hotels in the US because clearly thats a real category,
the Marshall House was a hotel that ended up being used as a hospital thrice and thus
you can imagine all the dead patients’ ghosts running around.
17 hundred 90 inn and restaurant is the home of a scorned woman called Anna who haunts
the upstairs guest rooms waiting for her lost love.
But why is Savannah so haunted?
Lets go back in history.
The town has been the site of many atrocities, the siege of Savannah that killed 240 people
left people thinking unsettled soldiers still linger.
Savannahs also been the site of a Yellow Fever epidemic so thats a lot of people dead.
In 1820 there was a massive fire in town that destroyed 500 buildings, and there was a bigger
fire 25 years prior that destroyed half that number.
The people that died in those fires have been linked to the houses they occupied.
Lets not forget the countless murders.
Filling our number 7 slot is Jerome, Arizona.
Mining town Jerome was known as the wickedest town in the west for its brothels, gambling
and heavy drinking miners.
The town itself actually burned down 3 times in 3 years at the end of the 1800s.
At its peak its population was 15,000, it then shrank to 50 people in the 50s and now
its 450.
Inside the town the Jerome Grand Hotel adds to the hauntings tenfold.
Before it was a hotel it was the United Verde Hospital where dozens of people died during
the great Spanish influenza.
Coughs, breathing, lights flicking, doors opening, a little child running on the 3rd
floor either laughing or crying.
Sometimes she just stays at the foot of a guests bed and stares at them all night.
The sounds of newborn babies crying, many guests have even spoken to the front desk
about it out of concern but then they find out its coming from an empty room.
A maintenance man named Claude Harvey was found under the elevator murdered in the 30s
and his ghost wanders around the hotel as well.
Theres even a ghost cat at the hotel.
I could go on but i think you get the picture.
Other than coming for tourism or to chase ghosts, no one really visits Jerome anymore
sadly.
Now at number 6 is Helltown, Ohio.
founded in 1806 and formerly called Boston, this place used to be the oldest village in
Summit County.
Hellown was the victim of disappearing forestland when President Ford let the National Park
Jurisdiction expropriate land to make parks.
The NPS started buying properties of locals in helltown and they were pissed.
They even wrote now we know how the Indians felt all over their houses.
But that was all for nothing.
The plan fell through and the village was abandoned.
Things went wrong in 1985 when rangers visited Krejci Dump nearby and left covered in rashes
and sick.
Apparently the dump was highly toxic cus chemicals were never disposed of properly.
There is also the issue of the um satanist church equipped with upside down crosses and
all.
Human and animal sacrifices took place there and thats not all.
There was even an escaped mental patient in the woods in the town that killed a bus full
of children and that bus is still there haunted by the ghosts murdered past.
Theres even a mutated snake in the town known as the Peninsula Python, so its safe to say
the town lives up to its name and has way too much going on.
Coming in at number 5 is Granbury, Texas.
This ones a bit of a small one, in 2010 their population wasnt even 8000 so its an intimate
little town.
But regardless of that its been the home for many infamous people over the years.
Davy Crocketts wife Elizabeth moved there post the Texas revolution and Jesse James
is even buried in the City of Granbury Cemetery.
Billie the Kid apparently moved there too after faking his own death.
But the biggest haunted appeal of Granbury is John St. Helen.
He moved there in the 1870s to teach and would quote Shakespeare all the time.
But people think John St Helen was actually John Wilkes Booth the man who assassinated
Abraham Lincoln.
Apparently he died in a bar fire and police threw Booths body into the Potomac River,
others say he was assigned a new identity after the assassination.
In town he walked with a strange limp and had a southern accent so people were wary
of him.
On his deathbed he confessed to a priest that he was in fact John Wilkes Booth and told
him where he could find the gun that killed Abe. but he didnt die that day, he fled the
city but its said when he did finally die where ever that was, he came back to Granbury.
The Granbury Opera House is haunted by him and you can hear him quoting Shakespeare een
now.
At number 4 is Galveston, Texas.
This island citys residents are so used to seeing ghosts around that honestly they dont
even bat an eyelid anymore.
During the early 1900s the city opened the Galvez Hotel to honour military leader Bernardo
de Galvez and they commissioned a giant portrait of him to go in its lobby.
Soon after the Galvez Hotel opened its doors guests started complaining the painting would
make them feel extremely cold and that his eyes were following them.
The hotel is also haunted by a ghost bride who’s been seen many times in room 501.
Its said she hung herself after finding out her fiance died at sea.
To make matters worse he didnt actually die.
He came to the hotel looking for her and for the marriage that would never be.
There was also a storm in 1900 which is still considered the deadliest storm in US history,
that killed 8000 residents.
Mayfield Manor served as a morgue after the storm and its now haunted all year round.
Dash Beardsley does ghost tours of hte city and he said hes seen them with his own eyes.
Among his many stories is one of an office in town that calls 911 every night.
The police have gone there countless times to find the office empty and no telephone
even connected.
Another is the ghost of a salesman who died inside Madame Harveys brothel in the 1800s.
A police chief moved his body to a park and put it on a bench so it would be less embarrassing
for the family and the mans ghost is still looking for his car keys.
Filling our number 3 slot is Jefferson, Texas.
Thats 3 towns in Texas in a row.
I really wasnt lying when i said Texas takes the cake on this list.
Its been dubbed one of the most haunted towns in the South by many travel channels and i
know it sounds like im saying this is one of the most haunted towns ever for ever single
number but its true.
Either way the town is plagued by the apparitions haunting the Jefferson Hotel and Excelsior
House.
Lets start with the hotel, theres a staircase inside which is known to be haunted by a little
ghost that likes pulling hair and tapping guests’ shoulders.
Guests have been locked inside their hotel rooms and bathrooms for ages before being
let out whilst hearing a creepy laughter from the other side of the door.
Orbs also appear in photos taken inside the hotel and all this isnt even scaring me its
just making me feel annoyed for the guests who have to stay there.
Not my problem, anyway the Excelsior House is another hotel thats basically just as haunted.
It houses a headless ghost on the second floor so many avoid that and it houses a woman in
black carrying a baby.
The ghost apparently even spoke to Steven Spielberg in the 80s.
And so she got closer to my dreams of becoming an actor than i have and shes dead.
Great.
Now at number 2 is Kerrville, Texas.
This town is specifically known for two haunted buildings whos ghosts seem to go all around
time.
The first is Kerr County Courthouse where two tragedies took place.
The first was to do with a couple, the man asked his beloved to marry him and she said
no, so naturally in a fit of jealousy and rage he killed her and then hung himself right
in front of the courthouse.
Talk about unable to deal with rejection.
Both have been seen over 100 times at the courthouse and the surrounding area just milling
about.
Id be so mad if i was the girl honestly, like i said i didnt wanna marry you and now im
stuck in this afterlife purgatory with you.
Just my luck.
Anyway the second story involves a prisoner who was killed during a rough interrogation,
he too haunts the inside the building by banging on the bars and throwing papers about.
The second building is Delaney Hall Schreiner University (shry-nur).
From its name you can probably guess that its a dorm building at the university and
its haunted by 8 former students while living students still reside there.
The students see doors slamming when the ghosts have fights with one and other and construction
workers constantly complain about how their tools go missing because of the ghosts.
And finally at number 1 is Saratoga, Texas.
The light of Saratoga is the legend of mysterious lights appearing and disappearing on Bragg
Road that all residents know.
The road runs between Beaumont and Livingston and is next to the ghost town of Bragg Station.
A haunted road and a ghost town?
What a match made in heaven honestly.
Strange lights on roads have been featured in many other videos so this phenomenon is
nothing new.
Some think its simply swamp gas, but the most popular story behind it is that a railroad
worker was decapitated during a railway accident and the light comes from the lantern his ghost
carries as he looks for his head.
Honestly if hes survived this long without his head i dont think he needs it to be honest.
The second explanation for the lights is a ghostly couple.
Its said the newlyweds were on their way home on the road when they were stopped by an innocent
looking man on the road.
The man was not innocent at all, he had a gun and a knife and took the mans wife hostage
into Big Thicket forest and killed her there and disappeared.
The man was ordered to wait in the car till they disappeared otherwise hed shoot her.
He waited and then ran into the forest trying to follow their sounds but he was too late.
So its said the lights on the road are him trying to find his brides murderer.
And thats it for todays video guys!
I think what we can learn and ultimately take from this video is that there are a lot of
salty dead people in Texas that havent crossed over to the other side.
Either way lemme know what you guys thought below and as always im Ayman Hasan and ill
catch you next time.
Byee.
