Description
a creepy Tunnel I found... Apparently Called the "Screaming Tunnel" the legend goes... if you light a wooden match while standing in the middle of the tunnel, you'll hear a shrilling scream and your match will immediately blow out.This particular legend takes place over a century ago when a deadly fire raged through an old farmhouse that stood just behind the south side of the tunnel. "On that fateful night, the air was shattered by a young girl's wretched screams as she emerged running from the fire's eerie glow. Her clothing engulfed in flames, she fled into the tunnel in a futile attempt to extinguish her burning garments. Collapsing to the floor, she died alone in its depths."
Another interesting tidbit of information is that The Screaming Tunnel was used for a scene in the 1983 movie, "The Dead Zone" with Christopher Walken.

This structure has sense been torn down, along with the bridge you see in the background.. Apparently it was unsafe, and the adolescent were of course setting fires and drinking and such in this area. So it remains only in pictures, memories & lore.

Its called the Yelling tunnel, apparently haunted by a little girl, who you can hear screaming in the tunnel at night...
