Geocache Description:

This is published as an "Unknown" cache because the true mystery of Chicken Alley is unknown. The cache is at the posted coordinates. Also, this cache has an ALR - an Apparitional Logging Request - where you can earn a bonus 'found it' log. Read on to learn more...if you dare!

On the county line of Outagamie and Shawano Counties lies a little piece of nowhere called Chicken Alley.

Chicken Alley has been featured in several books and websites on the paranormal and other items of "Weird Wisconsin."

Reported sightings include:

*You will see headless, ghost chickens.
*You will be chased by what appear to be snowmobile lights, but they never get closer.
*Sometimes you can see the Chicken Alley sign and sometimes you cannot see it.
*There is a large tree that only appears with a full moon in the background.
*You will see wild chickens running around; and if you get out of your car at the crossroads, someone will yell at you.

Now, we were skeptical ourselves before we visited this site. However, having gone there, we found some things that were difficult to believe, as the photos below show.


Here is the Chicken Alley sign itself. As you can see, it appears to be floating in midair. The ground is nowhere in sight! Crazy!!!


Here is a wider shot of Chicken Alley. Here you can see the sign support has mysteriously REAPPEARED!!! However, if you look closely in this actual, unretouched photograph, you can faintly make out what appears to be a ghost in the photo! And this ghost was NOT in the picture when we took it. And what about those horizontal lines on the road--could they be ectoplasm? Spooky!


Finally, and most telling, is this bizarre photo. You can clearly see a shadow on the road with no logical explanation. Bizarre!

To log this cache: Find the cache container at the posted coordinates and sign the log...IF YOU DARE!!!

To claim a bonus find: If you complete an ALR (Apparitional Logging Request), you may claim a bonus find. Your log should include a detailed explanation of the unexplained phenomenon you experienced while at this site, and/or a picture showing this phenomenon.
