| GHOSTS & HAUNTS IN MISSOURI STORIES FROM VISITORS TO THIS SITE. |
| I recently took a trip down to Blackwell with a few of my friends whom know the area rather well. I had not, having grown up in the city and now live in the imperial area, so they decided to take me and show me around, well what was left. I mean if you actually go into the "downtown" area it's only one street, and only I would say 4 to 5 houses, counting the 1 to 2 falling down ones. The area in it self if rather spooky, there is the ruins of the old church which burned down, I don't know when. Apparently a nun was raped there and murdered, is the story I have heard, ( if anyone knows the true story I would love to hear it) Also, the Masonic temple was torn down from what I hear from some people who thought it was evil. The bridge itself, the old one, isn't there anymore, they are building a new better bridge, it seems to be coming along rather nicely when I was out there seeing things. M My friends and I have been to Blackwell several times and have seen and felt a lot of wild stuff. Have We use to go down to the plantation house, but now we always get chased off by and old man with a very big dog so we don't question him we just leave lol. We also go to the graveyard on frequent visits and used to go to the bridge before the tore it down. My fiance, myself and my best bro went down there tonight and saw two white dogs that followed us for quite a distance and then just vanished. We turned around several time trying to locate them but alas to no avail. We find them strange. Last summer I and a group of my friends were at the bridge partying and we saw a large black thing jump from one tree to the other across the road no BS it really happened. We have also been followed by a car once when we left the plantation house and it turned right back into the woods where it came out of I should have mentioned that earlier huh lol well there is a lot more I could tell you. Have You ever heard the little girl playing in the cemetery? If not I will tell you later about our experience if your interested. P A H Ahhh Blackwell. Been there done that. The bridge, when I went was still there (6 months ago) but you have to get out and walk to it because of the construction of the new bridge. You can play on abandoned train cars while you there, the cemetery is weak unless you are a third grader. However, there is one thing that made that trip to Blackwell all worth it. Heading down the bridge head right and about two or three houses down there is an abandoned farm house on your right, when looking at the building the right bottom window is open, (warning: its elevated about 5 feet and covered with broken glass). Anywho, I went in there to scope it out before I gave my friends the OK to follow me when coming through the window be careful because the floor is caved in. As I meandered through this house I wondered into the next room and much to my aghast it was literally (honest to god) filled with chainsaw blades. The walls are painted white and on each wall there are a dozen or so nails and on each of the nails was a chainsaw blade. Good stuff, so I hollered for my friends to come in and let them see it themselves, they were just as shocked (my friend Andy has digital pictures I can give them to anyone by request). As we were leaving my friend Andy swore that dogs were right on our tails and so we skedaddled pretty quickly out of there; however, when we pulled away we saw no dogs. To this day creepiest thing I have seen in my life, and I do this kinda stuff every weekend. bizarre. Only two incidents ever..... First, there was metal-on-metal 'hammering' one night coming from from where the old (1800's) blacksmith shop used to be (now a barn) in the backyard. Secondly, one Halloween night we took a bunch of people to the graveyard and stomped around. Dog freaked out and coward at our legs...we went back to the house and weird stuff happened all night...noises...smoke detector went off a couple of times...lights went off/on a couple of times. Two small incidents in five years isn't much...all things considered. Lots of stuff has occurred across the street from us, but only those two small incidents in our yard....and to call them incidents is really stretching it Anyone wanna have a go at taking some pics and possibly detecting anything in the graveyard? Email me....don't just show up!..invite needed, we don't allow trespassing! Seriously! Graveyard is on a private-property residence at the 1800's old plantation in Blackwell Missouri.
