Then why'd you take it?

I've got my own haunted story. While working for an architectural firm in northern Maryland, I was sent out to do some field measurements of an old post office located in Havre De Grace, Maryland... Which is one of the oldest towns in MD. Anyways... The place was constructed just before the turn of the century and had been deserted for nearly 20 years. So this doctor thinks the building will make a great office, and I am sent out to perform a survey of the existing conditions. I go there, take measurements, everything seems normal... no big deal. I get back to the office and start to draft it out, when i notice that the dimensions are not adding up. Theres about a 10 foot discrepency. Totally confused, a coworker and I go out for another round of surveys. Sure enough we found out why I missed the 10 feet...

All of the interior walls had wooden panels... sure enough, one of them pushed in to reveal a network of hidden passages that we completely covered in spider webs and what not. So at this point its noting more than an interesting discovery... The next day, I go out alone to do the last of the surveying. As usual, I go into the building, go to the electrical panel and turn on all of the power. This time I had to document the old boiler room and coal chute. While im in this damp concrete basement, all I hear is "WHAMM WHAMM POP" all of the light bulbs had exploded, and Im stranded down there in the pitch black. Talk about some scary shit! I stumbel back upstairs and look at the panel again... everything but one breaker had been turned off - labeled post masters office. At that point I basically say "Fuck This" and head back to the office. When I get there the secretary tells me that about 80 years ago the post master was caught stealing money from the mail and was killed in one of the passages...

Great stories! Keep them coming!

Hahahahaha...
...would piss my pants if I saw it in real life though oOo:




Did you guys actually go into the basement?

Corpus Christi, Texas

Name: USS Lexington
Location: Docked in Corpus Christi Harbor

The retired US Naval vessel USS Lexington is most famous for the ghost of the engine room operator who was killed in battle. He has never harmed anyone and only makes his presence known when tourists enter the engine room; he gives guided tours of the room. Sometimes he becomes impatient, however, and slams doors and turns off lights.


This is no shit, either. I took a tour of the USS Lexington last summer, and subtle but noticeable things start happening when you go in there, especially if it's only one to four people in there at a time.


My previous place of employment had some wierd shit go on as well. The freezer and cooler doors in the basement closed by themselves one day, the elevator goes up and down by itself, and one guy swears that he saw somebody walk through the wall.

I've been to the USS Lexington, although I didn't see or feel anthing while I was down in the engine room.

It does, but it probably looks nothing like those pictures.

Come on the Jersey Devil! Surley you do not believe it exsits, it is just a bunch of folklore, nothibg to it. From that picture I think you could play a nice game of checkers with the old chap.

You sir, have never seen what I have seen. About last year our class spent a week in the pine barrens. My old math teacher told us about a group of people who went up into the woods and got attacked by the jersey devil. They stopped their car in the middle of a clearing, then the jersey devil attacked the vehicle by killing everyone inside of it and then eating their entrails. I have seen the car. It had bullet holes in it from one of the people's pistol. The area used to be closed off by the government for some time but my math teacher snuck a few of us in. When I was walking around the clearing I had the constant feeling of being watched. Very scary. He is real...trust me.


EDIT: There are also reports of the jersey devil's mother actually having it. there was an old thread where I posted a similar comment, if you could find it; it would help.

One time I was in this haunted house that used to be a mental hospital and one of the guys killed his whole family there and the jersey devil fucked their entrails with a Vietnam vet, then this girl I was with was like fuck me, and she walke into a wall and shot her self with a gun, then this ghost attacked me, so I ran fast got in a tank and shot it, and then the army came and they couldnt stop it, so they got me to shoot it with one of their assault rifles and i did and it died and i won.

Yes, we did...but I don't have pictures of it...scary as hell though...its small...smells weird...and theres a lot of odd noises...my friends always made me last because i was the biggest...but i always felt weird, like someone was right on my ass...eerie i tell ya! rock:
