Haunted Trail If you have the courage to walk this dark haunted trail Saturday night, bring some brave friends, because you will need them. There will be many very angry and hostile spirits lingering in the swamps along this trail. They become very upset when people intrude their swamp at night, especially this time of year when the spirits become very active. You may be one of the fortunate people to exit the trail in one piece.

Happy Halloween
