64615) House in Appleton, WI Last Updated: 5/26/2011

House — 5/26/2011

I grew up in this house at 905 N. Summit ST. Two strange experiences happened while I lived there. I had an Aunt (deceased) who when she came over had to get to a particular chair and sit there, she used to say she heard running footsteps until she got to that chair next to the stairs. Second: my sister Cheri (Brunner now) used to wake up many times and go to my Mother's room and ask her if "Paul" was OK. She saw him standing next to her and said he was so cold and so white. She described him with a hat and clothes I could only describe as "Pilgrim clothing". Noone else saw him, but my sister now is a professional psycic so maybe there was something to it. She was in her pre-teens then and it continued for about 3 years. Facing the house on Summit Street it would be the upstair far right window where her room was. My Mom is 82 now and claims the house has spirits. I must add I never saw any ghosts while I lived there many years ago. This is a residence and is private prop...

64613) Riverside Cemetary in Appleton, WI Last Updated: 5/26/2011

Riverside Cemetary — 5/26/2011

I am 56 now. When I was in High School there was a person we referred to as "Biggie Rat". He used to wear a cape with an upside down cross and had a book from his family that dated in the 1600's, hand written. He had a "coven" with about 10 people and used to do rituals and things in the grotto (hollowed out cave with altar in it) located down the hill toward the river. He did burn sacrifices and did rituals and had his followers sign their souls over in blood on paper.. We used to party in the cemetary at night alot and would observe this action from a ways away. He claimed he opened some door to Aquarian or something like that. The cemetary is full of spirit-like presences. Cold chills and isolated fogs, ect.. Spiritualists have reported many experiences there many years ago.

There also used to be an old school house across from what used to be St. Joseph's School that contained a coffee house called the 'Cavern". Many workers and Nuns reported seeing a white, woman figure t... The rest of this description is continued on StrangeUSA.com

63645) Railroad Track's in Appleton, Wi Last Updated: 8/21/2009

Railroad Track's — 8/21/2009

These are a set of railroad track's in Appleton, Wisconsin going through Wisconsin Ave. And College Ave. So me and my freind's would take this as a shortcut to get to a gas station on Wisconsin Ave. ( newly built Moto Mart ). Me and my freind's have been taking this shortcut for a good month now. So one of my freind has a dream about me and her walking down the railroad track's and someone walking down the train track's, shooting me, and the people walking away laughing and her running away screaming. She wakes up, throws up and cry's. Now the creepy part is one of my very trusted adult freind's awhile ago told me a husband and wife had a fight band in the 1970's. So the husband brings the wife down by the railroad track's and shoot's her in the head. The spot where she was shot in the head was down right by the Saint Vicent De Paul thrift shop on A Frontage Road ( by College Ave And Perkin's St ). I can't tell you this is all true, but I will update when I find a newspaper a... The rest of this description is continued on StrangeUSA.com

There was a kid named "Marky" who worked, or was believed to work for the Mob in the late 20`s.

There have been stories in the paper about him, nevertheless he remains a ghost to the surrounding city folk because they know of him, and his past. Neighbors won`t go near his old house, because he`s said to still live in the basement.
