 The small town of Stull, Kansas is home to one of the most infamous urban legends in the United States: the Gates of Hell. The legend claims that the Stull Cemetery is one of seven gateways to Hell, and that the Devil himself appears there twice a year, on Halloween and the spring equinox. The legend of the Gates of Hell in Stull can be traced back to the early 1970s, when a student newspaper at the University of Kansas published an article claiming that the cemetery was haunted. The article quickly spread, and soon Stull became a popular destination for thrill-seekers and paranormal investigators. Over the years, the legend of the Gates of Hell has only grown more elaborate. Some people claim that the cemetery is surrounded by a barrier of invisible energy that prevents people from leaving once they enter. Others say that the Devil has been seen appearing in the cemetery, sometimes accompanied by demons and other creatures. Of course, there is no scientific evidence to support th...

With over 600 deaths since the lake's creation, it is no wonder that some consider Lake Lanier the most haunted place in Georgia. Lake Lanier (named after Sidney Lanier, who was a poet) is a reservoir located in the northern part of the state of Georgia. It was created by the completion of Buford Dam on the Chattahoochee River in 1956, and is also fed by the waters of the Chestatee River. The lake is rather large and has approximately 692 miles of shoreline. From its construction in 1956 to modern day times, the lake has a dark and troubled past. During its creation the land was flooded to create the lake. Over 700 families had to be relocated. And it wasn't just the families that were disturbed, there were also 20 cemeteries that had to be moved. The problem is they didn't move all of the graves and some are still located at the bottom of the lake.   The skeleton of a woman who disappeared in 1958, was discovered by a crew of construction workers and since then ...

they-hide-in-the-dark : Archeri - A demonic spirit from Native American and eastern mythology, the Archeri takes the form of a little girl and delights in spreading disease to children and the elderly. She is often seen as a frail little girl with pale grey skin who lives in the mountains. When disturbed by human activity she will come down from the mountain and dance into festivals and harvests in order to attract children to her. Children are then infected by the Archeri casting its shadow on them. In some cases the Archeri was once a child who died of a painful and horrible disease.  The Archeri feeds on misery. The more people she infects and the more misery she causes the stronger and happier she will become. This makes her increasingly difficult to remove from a village or town as her illnesses are usually contagious and easily spread. The only way to protect children from an Archeri is to make them wear red...

The legend of the black eyed children is a modern urban legend that has been circulating online and in campfire stories for decades. The stories typically involve two or three children, who appear out of nowhere and ask to be let into a person's home. The children are described as being very pale, with black eyes that are completely devoid of any pupils or irises. They are often dressed in old-fashioned clothing, and they speak in a monotone voice. If the person refuses to let them in, the children will become increasingly insistent and threatening. They may say things like, "We just want to come in and warm up," or "We're lost and we need your help." In some cases, the children have been known to become violent if they are not let in. There are many different variations of the black eyed children legend, but the basic premise is always the same. The children are said to be dangerous, and they should not be trusted. There is no scientific evidence to suppo...
