Haunted Ohio Trivia Quiz

Answer: Sprucevale

Check it out! I bet you'll love it. It's part of a state park and it's not only haunted, but beautiful too! Some of the ghost stories are the story of Esther Hale (the ghostly bride left at the altar to go insane and die that way), Jakes Lock (the lock where a lockkeeper got struck by lightning and fell into the lock), and of course, Gretchen (the little girl who died of her illness, was entombed into the lock, and when she was removed to be taken back to her native Holland, the ship was lost at sea so she never made it home.)

Answer: Johnsons Island

This is a wonderful place to go on a quiet day. It costs a dollar to go out over the causeway, but its well worth it! The cemetery is said to be haunted by the ghosts of the prisoners held at the prison. One of the most famous ghost stories is that of the group of miners working on the island after the war.

There was a terrible storm quickly approaching (Ohio's weather, crazy) and they sought shelter in the abandoned prison. As they watched out the window at the bronze soldier statue that stands outside, they saw it turn on its pedestal to face the many graves in the cemetery.

They then saw a green mist begin to rise from the ground which took the shape of men in uniform. They watched in horror as the ghosts walked away from their graves, into oblivion.

Answer: Haunted Ohio

It's a good series, it has many of Ohio's ghost stories in it. But my hint to you is, don't read it at night. You won't be able to sleep. Because the stories are told from a personal point of view, you might be able to relate. But that's the last thing you'd want...
