a Geocaching Haunted Observations and Supernatural Tales (G.H.O.S.T.) Challenge geocache
The Ghost of the Old Depot
a known paranormal hotspot in Rome, Georgia
Southern Railway's passenger depot, which stood in East Rome on E. 6th St. between Maple and Walnut avenues, was built in the late 1890s and was a hub of activity in the city with many arrivals and departures each day. It burned on November 15, 1974. Residents tell of hearing the ghost's lonely howl late at night when trains now pass by without stopping.
Note For New Geocachers:
Join us and enjoy the adventure of Geocaching. Please don't move or vandalize the container; simply replace the geocache where and how you found it. Before you leave, make sure the geocache is completely out of sight. The real treasure is discovering the location, signing the log book, trading even or up with personal SWAG and sharing your experience with everyone online in your "found it" log. You might even find a trackable item!
Note For Geocachers:
In your log, please indicate the condition of the container without giving any clues to its hiding spot (post no spoilers!). This will assist us with maintenance and provide a pleasant experience for others. Please replace the container in the same hiding spot as you found it. If the container is not found, please log your DNF and do not replace the geocache with a "throwdown".
