STONE CHURCH ROAD


The Brown Lady of Raynham Hall
"I'm just a ghost in this house
I'm shadow upon these walls,
As quietly as a mouse
I haunt these halls."

Tale from Chris B.

There is a road about 10-15 miles from me in Bartonville, IL. It?s called Stone Church Road. I had always heard it was haunted and that some old guy lived behind the church on this road and would shoot at drivers going by his house. Now I didn't believe the shooting thing, because he would get arrested. But since I do believe in ghosts (had plenty of encounters), this is what made us travel down the road.

Rumor has it that a man died on that road and his spirit was stuck there with his car. (I am getting chills writing this to you guys). The road runs right off the road that I take to get to my girlfriend?s. Every time I go by that road I would see car lights just sitting there. They were not white, but yellow. One night, me and my friends Donnie and Robbie got the guts to check it out. We turned down the road and just started driving. We got about 20 seconds down the road when we saw a car parked on the side and a man in the street. So we slowed down. We had a good feeling what it was, but we couldn't turn around, so we had to keep going to get off the road. But the guy wouldn't move.

My hardass friend Donnie got out and asked the guy what his f**king problem was. But the guy just looked at him without saying a word. Donnie was getting mad that the guy wouldn't answer him, so he kept yelling. I started getting chills, and so did my other friend. I knew something was wrong. I told Donnie to get back in the truck and lets get out of here. He listened and got in the truck. We kept staring at the guy and he didn't move. I turned around for a second to turn on the music, and when I turned back to look again the guy was gone. Along with the car.

I knew it was the ghost. To this day I get chills whenever I drive past that road, like the ghost knows me and my friends. I still see the lights every once in awhile.
