You are really brave. There is no way in this world I would wander around the woods at night.

These locations were creepy as hell at night.

[@cyankelly1592]

I grew up in the oak Creek area and my grandfather was the first detective on the police department there I often asked him about the truth to these rumors. I appreciate your research. There was one other accident on Fitzsimmons road. However everybody involved was okay. A few out-of-towners got lost and drove over Fitzsimmons road and fell into a gully. My grandpa said that's what saved their lives. I doubt it was documented in Media. So if you're ever looking for information that is possibly useless let me know. I have ghost hunted these places multiple times over the last 20 years. Keep up the good work. If you ever need to pick my grandpa's brain let me know. I have been to all of these multiple times and I have seen the lights in whitnall Park, and I have photos from 2006. I've ghost hunted most of the area multiple times over 20 years and Grandpa always gave me the info. He had the deets on the whole county. From the rave to county line, I have all the useless lore 😂

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Thank you for sharing this. That's interesting. Were the lights floating over the waterfall area?

[@cyankelly1592]

@StrangeandSinister1 yes and no. Most of them were near the opening to the path, a few were in the parking area, but another thing was my flip phone kept randomly chiming until we got back to the parking area but I had no missed calls or texts.

I grew up in Oak Creek as well. My dad still lives in Oak Creek.

No, the bug or whatever it was that I filmed was at Seven Bridges.

Hard to say what the floating thing is, but it does give me the creeps in that setting at night. And you didn't notice it in real time, only after on the recording. I would think you would have noticed in in real time. Creepy! Love it. Thanks

[@EvelynChenery]

Geez that Whitnall park one gave me goosebumps. I used to play in that waterfall all the time as a kid. I had no idea that there were rumors of ghost sightings 😳😳😳

[@StrangeandSinister1]

There are quite a few stories. Another viewer said employees at the golf course next to the waterfall have even seen it.

[@chrismcgill]

I think that anomaly is definitely an orb. like you said, the way it suddenly moves fast to the left after hovering is *not* something that happens to anything naturally. plus, you can see there wasn't much of a wind at that moment. nice vid, amigo.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Thank you. I'm not sure what it is but it's weird. I'm glad I had the camera rolling.

[@Docs__Garage]

Spent a lot of time in the summer in whitnall Park never heard any of the stories that you've talked about in this video. Thanks for sharing

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's a lesser-known story that was featured in a book about Milwaukee ghost stories.

[@Docs__Garage]

As a teenager, we would spend a lot of time at the 7 bridges trails, walking and driving around looking for the woman/witch, mainly just scaring ourselves.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's a nice park. I've been wanting to go there for a while.

[@TheFn414]

Ahhhh good times

[@kyleb350]

As a kid, I remember hearing about the witch as well. 😁

[@Veer-wc5lb]

Big fan of the channel since you started, mostly because I'm from this region of the Midwest. Would be cool to see you check out the Northwest corner of IL and into Dubuque IA. Several murder sites and local haunts out that way both rural and into the cities.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

That's great to hear, thank you. I plan to make a video in that area eventually. Maybe Galena.

[@OliveSpanowski]

I live just down the street from seven bridges and frequent the others quite often. It's nice to hear local folklore spread and told. I can say I have definitely had some experiences in the bridges and Fitzsimmons. I would say the forest makes me feel watched but not scared. It's warm.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Other than the weird object I filmed at Seven Bridges, I didn't have any strange experiences at these locations, but all three were creepy to explore.

[@iPRO9251]

I’m from Franklin, WI and hearing these stories reminded me of the most paranormal thing I’ve ever experienced near the area. Senior year of high school my friend and I would go on a night walk every weekend in the park by pleasant view. At the park there is a main trail that runs through a prairie with dense woods on the north side. My buddy and I would go to these woods, spark up a bit, and talk about ghost stories, the possibilities of interdimensional consciousness, or pretend we were in a horror movie. One particular night though, we did not have to pretend. As we were walking through the woods we noticed a light. A blue orb off in the distance that we could see through the trees. At first we thought nothing of it. You know, probably just someone with a headlamp walking their dog late at night. Or a biker. Once we exited the woods we got a better view. The light was similar to how you described it in the video. It was a small blue orb that traveled a couple feet off the ground - but in our case it was solid and did not flicker. What was so unsettling about this was how the light moved. I am getting chills as I write this damn. It moved so smooth. No bobbing whatsoever. Imagine that. If it was a person or a cyclist there would be natural movement of the headlight as the person moves with it on their head. This was not the case. We saw it off the main paved trail too. So here we are at the edge of the woods looking at the clearing the prairie provides and we see a blue light gliding in a rough grassy atv-created trail. Freaky. We noticed it and automatically started to conjure out stories about what we were seeing. We then found ourselves on the main paved trail and started walking towards the bridge at the end of the park. As we did so the orb continued to move around us. Circumnavigating us. There were 3 different instances the light come close to us on the atv trails (it never went on main path) and each time it did I saw something different. It only got like 15ft close to us in pitch black, but I thought I saw a person running with a dog, then a someone on a sit down bicycle, and the last I couldn’t make anything out. Finally, and maybe most interesting was that there was no glare being casted on the ground by the light. Go outside and shine a flashlight. It will create a glare on the ground. The orb did not have this property which is what made it hard for us to see what was controlling it and creepier in retrospect. I don’t think we really understood what was happening in the moment or else we would’ve been more freaked out. Especially when it moved towards us. Out of our 20+ walks here we only saw a light like that once. And we hardly, if ever, saw anyone else on trail at this time of night. We both had the same experience of seeing it and having the feeling it was… different. It could’ve been our mind playing tricks since we were high, but I’ve never had a hallucination that strong on weed and we both experienced it. Maybe it opened up a different form of awareness where we could perceive such things. Or maybe it was just a biker and our brains are already going brain-dead. But what fun is that? Sometimes things only show when you can’t prove them. We know what we saw. I think it’s crazy that ppl mentioned in your video saw a similar orb in 2018 when we experienced this early 2019, 5 miles away. Coincidence? Had to share our experience this is so close to home.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

I believe it. I witnessed floating orbs a long time ago when I visited Bachelors Grove Cemetery (I shared the story in the video). Thank you for sharing your story.

[@lonr3996]

⁠​⁠@@StrangeandSinister1I remember the time I was driving on the Turnpike along Bachelors Grove Cemetery. It was around 3:00 AM. I saw orbs, mists, and a ghostly figure along the road, and then a car came up behind me tailgating me for a mile. It all gave me creepy, eerie chills. Then I started feeling these intense feelings of dread, sadness, despair, among other negative feelings, so I drove the heck out of there. I had to stop off at a Speedway to collect myself. When I returned home, I went to bed, and then I started having all these horrible nightmares about things that happened in that area. I will say this I’m never going back there ever again.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

I believe it's haunted. So many people have had strange experiences there.

[@mikelew3700]

I'm from Franklin too. I graduated from Franklin highschool in 1981 . We used to party in wittnall park All the time. Used to ski and sled ride on the hill that goes into the golf course off Rawson Ave. Good memories thanks for sharing we were burning there back then too. Some things don't change.

[@jimappdev]

That floating thing looks like spider silk that may have been directly in front of you. It appears to be stationary and only moves when you do and when you watch the reflection from the flashlight you can see it is much longer

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's possible. Maybe it was a spider web that was pulled away in the breeze when I walked through it.

[@user-usernotme]

​@StrangeandSinister1 I disagree. It matches up very very close to what I seen in our back yard with my own two eyes and our dogs sensed it.

[@jimappdev]

@@user-usernotmethat may be but, if you watch close you can tell that it is in the foreground and within about 5 feet of him when you first see it pop up. It’s only illuminated by the flashlight and if you pay attention to the camera movement in relation to the object, it is very obviously stationary like something hanging from a tree. Then as it disappears you can tell that it happens right as it goes behind his flashlight as he walks past it. It’s completely stationary. Not saying it doesn’t resemble whatever you saw at home but i am saying that i strongly believe it is just something from nature like a spider web or caterpillar silk of some sort.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It could be something natural or some type of optical illusion. It's weird whatever it is.

[@Skanking-Corpse]

I agree with the spider silk or possibly a fishing line caught in the trees.

I found the story about the Fitzsimmons road t be very interesting because of the connection my relatives had to this area. My grandfathers family own a farm on Fitzsimmons road up until about 10 years ago. it is the farm right before the tracks. I always found it interesting how the road was blocked off at the tracks but never know why. I will have to share this video with my grandpa as I am sure he will have many story's to tell about the road. very cool.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Thanks for sharing! Another viewer left a comment about his great uncle owning the farm on Plevak road (not Plevoc as I said in the video). He also said that the story about the ax murdering farmer on that road is actually true and that the murderer was his great uncle who owned the farm. There was a short newspaper article about it but I wasn't able to find it. Very interesting.

It's 16 degrees today and I picked a tick off my dog today, in WIsconsin. I realize your argument that "it's below freezing, it's too cold for bugs", but man..... bugs are surprisingly hardy dude.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It could be a bug, who knows.

[@duwaynesteurer4287]

@StrangeandSinister1 the movement was weird for sure. I'm not even saying it was definitely a bug. I will say things like Stink bugs and a few other types of critters are surprisingly hardy in the cold for a few weeks after first freeze.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's true, stink bugs are hardy, and they crawl out from under brush on mild days in the fall and early winter. It was mild that day, so it's possible the object was an insect but I don't know for sure what it is.

Another surfeit of scariness - thank you for your, as usual, well researched and masterfully recounted tales. I've yet to set foot in Wisconsin, but one of my old law school professors hails from there and has an open invitation for me to visit. I will one day; and I will re-watch these videos of yours before I do to plan a visit to all these places for myself. Also, that "leaf" you saw floating past the camera - it looked rectangular to me; almost like an elongated dollar bill, except as you noted, it did unusually speed up at the end. 🤷🏻‍♂ Thank you again, superb work that keeps me on the edge of my seat! 👍🏻

I grew up in Cudahy. The stories of the Bender Park area are well known around here. Grant Park is where the 7 Bridges are, literally down the road from me. I love it in there and South Milwaukee did a lot to fix it up in the last 20 years or so, but back in the 90's as a teenager we would go find places to 'smoke".... lol. I swear we have heard things back there.

@@tomawen5916 that's because it's an old 5th avenue, the DuPont factory and the Peter Cooper glue factory were there prior.

His name is Charles Rothe, and from what I understand he got drunk and fell into a vat. But what is now lake drive, used to be 5th avenue.

As a native of Wisconsin, Kenosha has a lot of haunted places. Kemper center is widely known for visual and auditory experiences. Pets park is an extremely spiritual hotspot that has its experiences tied in with Native American history, that I have personal experiences with. During spring and summer it hosts playful spirits, but autumn and winter brings out dark energies.

[@brandonrugzie]

I think what you caught on camera at seven bridges was actually a hanging pine needle. It remains statically positioned as you move around it, it may look like it zooms off, but if you track the movement of the camera and the movement of the object they match pretty perfectly. I do love the video, I grew up in that area and spent WAY too many high school nights at Fitzsimmons Road

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Maybe, but if you look at it up close on a big screen it looks slightly transparent. It almost looks like a piece of plastic, it's weird.

[@Ara_ann]

I came to the comments to say the same thing. Yes that is something hanging from the tree branch above it (either a piece of fishing line stuck in tree with a lure or line weight on it or possibly a piece of spider web with something stuck on it like piece of a leaf, dead bug or a drop of tree sap. It is stationary and it only appears to be moving because of how your camera moves while it's still in the frame. Unfortunately not paranormal

[@damac7016]

Cheers from Wisconsin! Also, i gotta recommend the Classic that is Boy Scout Lane. Its definitely a cool legend worth sharing at least

Whitnall Park is a very spooky park in southwestern Milwaukee county where a ghostly woman in white has been seen at different places in the park at 11:00pm or 11:30PM'. I visited the ghostly bridges on Seven Bridges Trail once but was too scared to go farther. Many people live along the road opposite from the park separating houses from the woods in Grant Park. I wonder how they could not be spooked out.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Another viewer left a comment that employees at the golf course next to Whitnall Park saw the ghost in the fairway and by the waterfall. I have no idea if these stories are true, but if they are, it adds credibility to the legend.

[@dewsef]

I can't speak for Whitnall park, but I have been a regular to Seven Bridges almost daily for the last 10+ years and at least minimum biweekly for Fitzsimmons/oakwood roads. I used to party there with my friends at night all the time there. One or two times there was something that freaked us out in Grant Park but mostly the scariest things would have been the cops coming lol. But in that field on Plevoc road I was having a fire with my buddies and it got dark and it sounded like there was someone walking in the treeline and we shined our flashlights on the area but didn't see anyone or any animal. That was probably the creepiest and most unexplained thing that happened to me. But on a random note, thanks for naming Plevoc road for me. I have been wondering if that road was named at all since I started frequenting Fitzsimmons in the 2010's lmao. I appreciate that

[@StrangeandSinister1]

That would be creepy. I walked through that field alone at night and it was creepy but I didn't see or hear anything other than a couple deer.

[@madtrucker0983]

Any road that looks that creepy has got too be haunted. You got balls going out there in the cold, dark night, alone in the snow showers. I wish I had known about these places when I ran too Milwaukee all the time a few years ago. Our terminal was only about eight miles away.

I used to live in some Condos by Whitnall Park and that area of the Woods is 100% HAUNTED. Everyone over there tells you not to go in the woods after 10pm, but i've also heard stories of people encountering that woman's spirit even earlier in the day, but most of the activity I've heard about occurs after 10pm. There's a Golf Course that borders that part of the woods by the area of the waterfall & hiking trails mentioned in the video. And I personally talked to a couple different employees at that golf course that told me multiple people who work there have seen the ghostly apparition of a woman wandering out in that area. I also met a woman that lived in the area when I was hiking on those trails one day and she told me never to go in those woods at night and proceeded to tell me a story about a friend of hers who lived in the area who saw the apparition during the day. She told me that her friend saw the ghost and didn't even realize it was a ghost. That her friend greeted the apparition when she was walking by the waterfall area and noticed a lady standing there, but the lady said nothing and when her friend glanced back a second later, she was completely gone. I also heard the stories about a baby crying from several people in that area and stories about the ghost screaming at people but I never met anyone that actually experienced the screaming first hand. The golf course employees also told me stories about how multiple employees heard a woman yelling about losing her baby, screaming & wailing various things about a baby. I personally have had several strange experiences in those woods, but only one time did I ever dare to enter @ night. And it was the one and only time I ever attempted to hike those trails at night. The whole story would take me a long time to tell but I never even got near the area of sightings that night because so many scary and odd things happened that made us turn back before we could even get there. It's like something was telling us turn back the whole time, it was super creepy. And I've been in plenty of other forested, wooded areas at night, but I never got that type of vibe or feeling from any other place. Those woods have such a HEAVY, bad vibe at night, it's literally terrifying. I would love to see some Ghost Hunters thoroughly explore that place for a few nights and see what they find.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Wow, thank you for sharing this. That's really interesting about the golf course employees seeing the ghost and hearing the wailing. I'd love to learn more about those stories. It's possible it could have been a living person suffering from a mental condition, but who knows. I had the same feeling you experienced when I went there at night to film the waterfall and trails. I only walked around for maybe 45 min and left because the place just gave me a really bad vibe. My instincts were telling me to leave now and that's what I did. I walked around Seven Bridges and Fitzsimmons Road, and those places were creepy, but Whitnall Park was scary.

I've been to all four of these places, grew up going to Seven Bridges and always heard "rumors" of the forest being haunted but I only felt unnerved during the day a few years ago in the summer when there were some strange characters utilizing the park, lot's of pot in the air as well so I have since decided to hard pass visiting any longer. Great video, always fun to see local places and to hear the real stories not just the urban legends. I had no idea the folks who passed going off the cliff on Fitzsimmons and Oakwood were from SM, crazy. I've heard that there was some "devil worshiping" activities taking place at the end of Fitzsimmons, did you run across any stories from that era in the 90's? Kind of weird.

My great grear grandpa actually was one of the people who built 7 Bridges! Always grew up hearing stories about the trails. I even saw someone staring at me from the trails one night while I was on the beach. I swear I saw that but nobody I was with saw them. Also, the story of someone hangning themselves from the main bridge I've heard since I was a kid. While it could definately be fake, too much of my family knows about it.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

That's cool. The hanging could be true, but I wasn't able to find any newspaper articles about it during my research. Sometimes these types of incidents aren't publicized though out of respect for the family, but someone doing that at the trail's entrance likely would have been reported by local newspapers.

Those woods at 7 bridges are creepy in the daylight. Props to you, but now I kinda wanna go back. I live like 10 minutes away. Now, the Whitnall one, I can vouch for. My buddy got pulled over in the park one night. Closer towards SouthRidge Mall, he was Dropped off at my apt, in Hales Corners, Plum Tree Apartments, on the edge of Whitnall Park, about a 3-5 minute walk to the waterfall from my front door. Well, my buddy and I wanted to go back out drinking, so we started walking to where they left this truck when he was pulled over. We're walking and walking, and heard the most blood-curdling scream I've ever heard. We ran all the way from basically Wehr Nature Center, all the way to basically the other side of the park. Mind y'all, this park is roads and roads and woods and woods. It's a huge amount of property. I've always been told the Lady shows up at the Waterfall at night, to look for her baby that drown. My Buddy and I think the Scream was her. Edit: I commented before completely watching the Whitnall one, got excited to tell my story, but now I'm shook. Like literal chills. I didn't know about the John Murder. That's 100% what we heard, and now I'm getting that like freaked out feeling replaying that night. Thanks for this man. This shit is so interesting to me.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

Thanks for sharing your story. That's scary, but animals can make eerily human-like screams, like the animal sound in my Scary Places in Southern Wisconsin Vol. 1 video. In that video, an animal scream can be heard during the Paradise Road story. But I also heard an unexplained human-like scream at another location that I'm convinced was human. I know the feeling when you hear it, it's terrifying. Whitnall Park gave me bad vibes and I didn't stay long. Another viewer left a comment about employees at the golf course next to Whitnall who allegedly witnessed the weeping ghost wandering around the fairway as well as the waterfall. There are a lot of weird stories about that place.

[@kennyB0990]

@StrangeandSinister1 yeah, I've been through Wehr Nature Center once at night with a friend, and we didn't hear nor see anything, then again, we were talking a lot, distracted. I've been by the waterfall, and all the trails through there, and the waterfall area definitely has a feeling to it, even during the day, but that could be my mind, because I know the stories. It's actually a very beautiful property, haunts aside. I used to work at Abandoned Haunted House Complex in Mt. pleasant. The Old Vance's Dance hall. I'm new to your channel, not sure if you've covered it. You should ask Matt And Corey, the owners. I've had numerous things happen to me there. Brew City Paranormal had some stuff they found.

@@StrangeandSinister1 I honestly do not know accurate details, but it was a well known Country Dance Hall, that had Big Name Artists perform often. You can see it right off 94. Very unique looking building. Supposedly there was a Basement, that was filled with Concrete, everything down there was just left and buried. That's the Main Building. The House next Door, I feel like something Happened there, because that was reported as the most active spot, by Brew City Paranormal. The most memorable night for me, We'd do Blackout for the Last Night of the Season. Customers only Use a Glow Stick. My spot was Dark, but I could still see. I remember sitting there waiting for the next group, and watched something walk right past me, as if it was a customer, and my coworker, across this small room, said, holy@#$&, did you see that. I thought it was her. So yeah, we both got quite freaked out, but then we're really pumped about it. I also volunteered to take the Casket Room the one night. Real Caskets, the Owner used to be a Funeral Director, these Caskets were used for wakes in the past. Well, I remember thinking my supervisor calling my name, so I i got up, started walking towards where I thought he was, and there was nothing. In that area, there is only one way to go, no secret doors for us to move about. I even asked him, and he wasn't like no, I was covering for another actor that got sick that night. It weirded me out. Who knows what it was. It's a loud environment. I had a few other things happen, but I'm sure they could have been debunked. It's a haunted house, I think your mind is going to automatically be on edge, just because the atmosphere. Multiple Actors had their hair pulled, tripped, pushed out of their spot, names called, crying heard. Some could easily be lies, but I know the place is active, too many accounts of things happening. Plus, I feel like you're just inviting for whatever it is, to stay, in a place like that. Corey Stephens is the Owner.

I did come across what was once a building, now torn down with pretty much just a floor in the surrounding fields and thought that was interesting. If anyone knows what that building was, please let me know. I generally like going to parks and have been at Seven Bridges. I've heard stories from my friends about how you can see faces in the woods at night, or how there is a praying mantis like demon roaming around in there, never seen that either, but it's nice looking at the moonlight from the beach.

15:07 That was a cool capture. Looks very much like ecto energy, as ecto does have a spatial dimension to it, and it appears to follow images and video of ecto I have seen -- small-ish, slender and perhaps a slight squiggle. Maybe a departed spirit, maybe just energy. I don't believe it is a leaf or a strip of bark, as it does not appear to twist or have some end-over-end action while in view. It also looks to be mostly staying at the same relative height while it is travelling. A leaf or thin strip of bark would more than likely be travelling in an incongruous wave, up and down, toward and against the pull of gravity. Definitely seems to be doing its own thing.

The cemetery there in the middle of the woods is beyond creepy at night if you can make it in there, and historically it has the oldest marked graves still in their original spot in the Milwaukee area. If you approach the diocese and ask, they will probably let you in to film during the day. If you get caught sneaking in at night, Milwaukee has a very hefty trespassing fine for that location.

Raced and who came closest to cliffs edge. No barricades then. Another time before blocked off. We always partied in the woods of Bender and Fitzsimons and climbed cliffs. Remember the fiundations of building's and the Apple Orchards through out the farm yards. One night 3 of my buddies and I were sitting in car at end of Fitsimons rd Drinking and Smoking a Dobie. Still 17 cant go to a bar. We see Grown Men Woman in Black Gowns just like out of a movie all walking in line carrying some sort of staff or swords for a ritual. Not sure now if this was a prank to scare folks on Halloween night. I started car and we flew out of the area fast as I could. We went back next day in light. We found a smoldering fire from night before, stick figures hanging on branches and a Doll with head torn off propped next fire as some kind of ritual happened at that fire.

I’ve been to Seven Bridges at night and it was full of teenagers running around and scaring one another in the woods. That’s likely where the screaming is coming from. I did hear a voice on the bridge on entry. We were talking about when the park was created and on listening to the recording, I heard, “Oh, so it’s a park.” Almost like whatever entity was present existed before it was parkland. Pretty creepy. Just be sure if you go at night to park outside the parking area. They close the gate and you’ll be stuck in there. As for the strange object/creature you captured on film, could it have been a bat? It seems to be the right shape. I wonder if the camera just plays tricks with the light and that’s why the object strangely speeds off at the end.

Thanks for sharing. That sounds creepy. What's the story behind the butcher/hanging?

[@ZL-Garage]

I reside in South Milwaukee and I've experienced a few things at Seven Bridges and Fitzsimmons Rd. Hell, I believe this entire city is haunted! Grant Park Picnic Area 5 & 6 (South Milwaukee)- Back in 1999-2000 about 10 of my high school friends and I were hanging out at Picnic Area 5 & 6 (adjacent to Seven Bridges) it was dark and close to closing when we noticed what appeared to be orbs in the woods. These woods were to the South of us and you had to cross the field to get there. The color of the orbs were yellow, orange, green, blue, purple, white and red. These orbs moved/danced around in the woods, there was no sound coming from that area where the orbs were. We were all surprised seeing this and knew that these were not vehicle lights. No one had the courage to investigate, but the orbs lasted for about 5-10 minutes and they we gone. - I told a friend of this story and he went metal detecting in that area had found some Native American arrow heads and Civil War era currency. Could there be a burial mound in the park? Who knows... Seven Bridges (Grant Park, So. Milwaukee) - In the same time frame from the above experience my cousin and I had encountered two child size shadow people on the trail on a moon lit night. These shadows made no sound and as soon as they got near me they vanished. I didn't feel threatened in any matter, I was just surprised. The legend goes that two cousins jumped off the cliff (Lake Michigan) together from the Seven Bridges woods and that the woman that has been seen on the pathways or in the woods is one of the parents that is searching for the children. - I've also experienced heavy breathing that would be all around me and foot steps that would coming running toward me or from behind me with no one there. (My father said that if you want to see something you cannot explain, go on a moon lit night after 10:30pm. He wouldn't tell me what he has seen/ experienced in there, but he took this to his grave) - On a slow drive through the park with my wife and two kids in the Spring of 2018 we were approaching the Seven Bridges entrance (There was no one there not even any cars) My youngest daughter who was seven at the time asked me why there was a little girl in a white dress standing by the woods. I asked her if she was by the entrance because I didn't see her nor my wife and oldest. She said, no she was far away from the woods, so I turned around and asked her to show me and she pointed to an area about 75 feet North from the entrance. I asked her about what kind of dress she was wearing, she said it was white and look really old with designs on it. I showed her some Victorian period dress pictures and she said it look like that. To this day she is still adamant on what she saw. - There is a KZbin video out there with EVP's being caught at the entrance. - I've heard stories of all the vehicle doors being locked at the same time on a vehicle that doesn't have power locks when the driver goes to open the door. - Car stereos turning on and randomly playing different stations. By the way, don't get caught in the park after 10pm. The entrance gates get locked leaving your vehicle trapped inside, you will get trespassed by the Sheriff or Police and your vehicle will get towed! The residents that live on Lake Drive and it's side streets that are adjacent to Grant Park will call the police on you if you go in the park after hours. Don't say I didn't warn you! Fitzsimmons Road (Oak Creek)- Back in my days of doing paranormal research in 2009, I investigated both Fitzsimmons and Pelvoc roads. At the end Fitzsimmons road I had my fully charged video camera died on me, picked up an EVP or two but couldn't make it out. (There is a video floating around KZbin that I watched and seen a mist in there video and some EVP's). - Pelvoc Rd. at night I snapped some pictures from that road and was facing East. I captured some humanoid shape from peering behind a tree. The weirdest thing about this was it was peering from about 4 to 5 feet off the ground... I did get a sense of a heavy presence feeling on the road though. I've read a report that I've found on the internet that the ghost of this murderous farmer has been seen crossing Fitzsimmons Rd. with two children into the next field. - My Grandmother lived on West Fitzsimmons Road (West of Hwy 32) on a farm from 1920 to about early the 40's. She never heard of any murderous farmer, but then again maybe her family never told her? Her dad did keep Al Capone's cars and weapons in the barn though during prohibition era. She saw Al Capone and his men come down Hwy 32 turn on her road, go to the barn and leave with two more vehicles then proceeded across Hwy 32 to East Fitzsimmons. What became after that who knows she said. Hey Strange and Sinister if you are interested, shoot me a message. I had a few encounters at the Forest Hill Cemetery in Oak Creek.

Thanks for sharing all of this. That's creepy about the girl in white. It would also be really cool to find arrowheads and old coins there. I was big into metal detecting for a while and found a lot of rare silver coins from the 1800's (not at Grant Park). As far as the closing hours, I made sure to go to Seven Brides before 10pm to avoid a ticket. Same thing with the other two locations. I was the only one in the whole park. Does Forest Hill Cemetery have any known ghost stories? That might be something I cover in a future video.

@@StrangeandSinister1 Forest Hill Cemetery- Oak Creek. My Dad told me this story about Forest Hill years after my wife and I had an encounter in broad daylight. We never told anyone of our encounter, I just asked if he knew of stories. He told me about a woman in white with brown curly hair in a period dress that would come up to you and talk to you in broad daylight, she needed help looking for a grave. He did not encounter this, but this story was passed on to him by friends that have experienced this. When he told me this story, I was chilled to the bone. The Chapel- Others and myself have witnessed activity during funerals.

Thanks for sharing the stories. I'll keep the Oak Creek location in mind. The Forest Hill Cemetery in Madison has quite a few ghost stories.

16:14 I think it’s a pice of trash/paper that was being carried by the wind, than there was a gust of wind so it zoomed off fast.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

I thought about that too. When I watch the clip on a big screen, it almost looks transparent, like a piece of plastic.

[@lonr3996]

@@StrangeandSinister1To me, it looks like paper, sort of like a dollar bill. What’s weird is the middle, and parts surrounding the middle, look transparent yet it reflects light, or is either giving off light.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's really weird. It does look transparent when viewed up close on a big screen.

Whatever that object is it definitely appears to be under intelligent control rather than just moving around randomly.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

The way it moves at the end is interesting.

[@AndyGravity]

It's an owl or a bird. It glides in, perches on a branch, then takes flight again.

[@StrangeandSinister1]

I don't think it's a bird or an owl. Whatever it was, it wasn't perching on a branch otherwise the branch would have been illuminated. I have no idea what it is.

For what it’s worth, the floating object looks just like a silkworm hanging by its invisible thread from a tree. You moved the camera past it, but it’s stationary. I haven’t noticed any silkworms in winter, but I’ve seen loads of them in the spring. Maybe it was a spider if not?

[@StrangeandSinister1]

It's possible, but I have no idea what it is. It's definitely strange whatever it is.

The story about the woman whose 2 children drowned sounds like La Llorrona

[@StrangeandSinister1]

I'll have to look that up.

Kind of a universal folklore
