Geocache Description:


As you approach this cache, you will notice nearby Industrial buildings.... a building had been planned for this location, but sometimes, unknown forces prevent any 'evolution'.

Upon this site was a normal home, with what hosted a string of what were normal families. However, the location was believed by those who attempted to live there as haunted. No one family stayed in the house for more than 6 months after moving in.

The house was torn down in the mid-90's, as the surrounding areas were transformed into industrial properties. It was one of the first cleared properties, but yet, the land still sits empty. Many believe its due to a property owner, or a problem with the land, however the true story is much darker.

Several attempts were made to survey the land, yet, to the surprise of the contractors the land seemed to rise, and fall, as if breathing. Holes and pits appeared and disappeared without warning. Trucks would get stuck, or not start at all. Equipment that was previously working fine was mysteriously non-functioning only at the site.
Concrete would not set, foundations would not stay stable. Something was seriously wrong.

The landowners did not want to create a fuss over the location, or further the strange stories already being passed from worker to worker, so they decided to leave the land empty, and undeveloped. For now.

The land seems to have a desire for vengeance, and the true story lies in the history BEFORE the history - the land was indeed a burial ground. In this area there is a nearby Paupers Cemetery - but many families could not afford burial, and the often corrupt workers who's job was to dispose of the 'unwanted' dead would many times bury, or dump the bodies in local fields, or even in large mass graves. Most of these areas sit today, built over, or unknown, unnoticed. This land, however is haunted by its dead - angry about their long gone stolen possessions, the disrespect at which they were left to join the Earth. They are not at rest.

Like the problems told about other electronic instruments, our GPS would not keep a steady reading at this site - it was all over the place. So, be observant, and keep your eyes and ears open while seeking.

Look for traces of the mysterious happenings at this location, or even for remnants of the past.
You never know what you will find....
