CaitSith Posted January 29, 2007 Author #27 Share Posted January 29, 2007 There are also rumors of hauntings at "White Bear Caves" and "Screaming Johnny's", also "Devil's Tower" all in the same area in Hannibal. On the river front there is an old water plant and an amphitheater that might possibly be haunted. On Maine street an old movie theater called Star Theater is thought to be haunted. Below is a letter from a visitor to Ilasco. It was founded in 1903,and was dissolved in 1963. Home to Mostly Slovak families. It housed most of the Atlas cement plant's workers.which was located just off of the settlement. In 1909 it housed about 3,000 people which made it Ralls counties largest settlement at that time. All that I could find out is that it was made up of in adition to houses, 8 Saloons, 7 Gen. stores early in the 1900's. The Romanian Lodge held many Funerals. Most of the settlers where buried in the Mt. Olivette and Riverfront cemeteries. In March 2nd of 1906 a large fire which started in one of the Gen. Stores spread threw the settlement and burnt most of the buildings down.In 1909 the Pauley Jail Building Co. built a 2 room escape proof jail that could accommodate 8 people 'comfortably'. The entrance to this village is a small wooden/steel bridge, then just to your left is the two stores and then on past that to the left is the jail and to the right is the new Lutheran Church. BM White Bear Caves are actually quite beautiful, more so than the comercialized Mark Twain Caves, but some bots did vanish in them in the early 70's. The Star Theater is actually on Broadway, dunno why it says Main St. About 80% of Hannibal is in Marion County though, only the southern outskirts is in Ralls County. I will say this about Devil's Tower though, it is a very bad place and you should stay away from there. Stick with Screaming Johnny's and forget about Devil's Tower.

I see a Bears fan! I love that video! Boy.... Congrats on your Bears SB appearance. The Bears are also a team that I have been rooting for to got o the SB. They have also been long over due for it. Yup, ToneCop is not much of a believer in the paranormal, and that why he's a great part of our group. He's also a real cop so there's no need to carry my gun along since he's aways carrying his. Also, he can tell the police department of our scouting around so no one runs us off. We're doing a big foot search soon in the Big Thicket, Texas. Also, this is the same arae where I done my Saratoga Ghost Light investigation. Edited January 29, 2007 by NME_locus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, sorry Leviathan, back on topic..... What's the big deal with Devil's Tower? I'm not trying to imply anything but it seems that Devil's Tower has been around and the legend has spread through out the US. There are many "Devil's ******" and people link that to being haunted. For example... One of the most famous of the Devil Name places is undoubtedly Devil’s Tower in the wilderness of Wyoming. Thanks to its major role in the film Close Encounters of the Third Kind, it is easily the most recognizable of the places on our list. Mystical or not, it is certainly a strange and unique location. The tower, as this outcropping is called, rise abruptly from the otherwise flat landscape to a height of nearly 1300 feet. The top if flattened off and long fissures cover the sides. These long , straight grooves gave birth to an Indian legend of a giant bear clawing at the rock with his claws. The geologic wonder was declared America’s first national monument by Theodore Roosevelt in 1906 and has always been considered a sacred site by the Indians, who believe that many spirits reside here. -Devil’s Backbone -Devil’s Track Lake -Devil’s Highway -Devil’s Tramping Ground -Devil’s Hole -The Devil’s Backbone and the Devil’s Bake Oven are in the southern portion of the state and in an area deemed “haunted” by the Indians.

CaitSith Posted January 29, 2007 Author #32 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I can only speculate legends, but I have been there. It's sort of a whole ghost tour going out that way. The tower itself is fairly unimpressive, though rumor states that it has a tunnle under it that leads to the White Bear Caves. It's not really a ghost story as much as a curse, or should I say cursed ground, but the sight of dark figures with glowing eyes is somewhat common, a car full of us all witnessed this. My sister parked out there once with her boyfriend and the car never started again, I also had a car break down while I drove out there on my lunch break last fall (I worked at Intermet, now Spartan as seen on the map.) There have been many accidents and fights out there, a few resulting in deaths. It was bad enough that they posted no tresspassing signs all around and put up that nifty orange fence that couldn't actually keep a retarded turtle out. It's just a bad place with bad energy where bad things happen, I wouldn't recommend it for anyone to go there. You want to explore the supernatural around Hannibal, stick with Screaming Johnny's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but don't act like Im the only person on this forum who feels the energy of their environment, I feel it off people too. Screaming Johnny's isn't so ominous just eerie, eveyone gets spooked out at Devil's Tower though, if you went there then you would see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's kind of a spooky chic, but I do beleive her abilities. She said that their were hundreds of voices coming from the woods all around, and she was hyperventilating and crying. Before I got my license I would go out there with my sister and her friends but they told me and my brother that another girl did the same thing. Like I said there are a lot of fights and accidents in that area, but that could just be because its a place where unsupervised teens go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
