Geocache Description:

Another great night cache on a creepy road with an equally creepy legend! Watch your footing and as always, Be Careful!

*2*
A local legend says that if you go to this area and say the "ghosts name" three times, she will appear and drop a rose on the ground - and you'll drop dead the next day. Do a search if you want her name or you can send me a message and I will give it to you, it is, after all, your life! Attempt this one at night, if you are brave, that's how we placed it and I am telling you this area is CREEPY at night!

"Straddling the line between fall and winter, plenty and paucity, life and death, Halloween is a time of celebration and superstition. It is thought to have originated with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, when people would light bonfires and wear costumes to ward off roaming ghosts. In the eighth century, Pope Gregory III designated November 1 as a time to honor all saints and martyrs; the holiday, All Saints’ Day, incorporated some of the traditions of Samhain. The evening before was known as All Hallows’ Eve and later Halloween. Over time, Halloween evolved into a secular, community-based event characterized by child-friendly activities such as trick-or-treating. In a number of countries around the world, as the days grow shorter and the nights get colder, people continue to usher in the winter season with gatherings, costumes and sweet treats." history.com
