THE PARANORMAL WORLD DATABASE
What makes a location haunted and why do some seem to harbor the spirits of the dead while others do not? Is it
because of the suffering associated with a traumatic event that makes it possible for places like Alcatraz and Gettysburg
to become ground zero for paranormal activity? Do spirits have a message for the living that they are trying to deliver?
Or is it merely the imprint of human energy on a location that remains in the existing atmosphere?
We continue to compile a listing of reputed and documented haunted locations throughout the country with a brief
history of each that may help to explain the origins of the phenomena that has been experienced there. All of us recall
the old abandoned house in our neighborhood that we as children dared not venture into, the ancient cemetery that
was said to house the restless spirits of those who still walk the earth or the stretch of treacherous road that is reputed
to have claimed many lives under peculiar circumstances. While we recognize that many of these sites are more
steeped in legend and folklore than reality, we'll allow you to make up your own minds as to the veracity of the claims.
RISEUP makes none as to the factual nature of these reports and/or legends.
