John’s life took an abrupt turn in September 1964 when he met and subsequently married a co-worker named Marlynn Myers, whose parents owned a number of Kentucky Fried Chicken restaurants in Iowa. John’s new father-in-law offered him a position with the company and soon the newlyweds were moving to Waterloo, Iowa. Life seemed to hold great promise for the newlyweds with no foreshadowing of what was to come.

Carmel was a safe place, everyone thought so – well, until the middle 1990s, when the town was rocked to its core by the discovery of a mass burial ground at the home of a prominent local businessman.

It was only later that everyone learned the truth and Herb’s sinister side was revealed – along with the scores of bodies that were buried beneath the earth of Fox Hollow Farm.

If you ever happen to find yourself driving down West Linden Street in Boise, Idaho, you might notice the house that sits at number 805. Covered in a layer of dirt, boarded up, windows broken, and trash scattered all over the yard, the large, two-story Craftsman-style home looks like an abandoned set for a horror film – but in this case, the true story is much more terrifying than fiction.

There is no single residence in America that seems to fit the description of HAUNTED HOUSE better than the Winchester Mansion in San Jose, California. And if there is a house that has a richer history, a more mysterious reputation, and a greater reputation for its connections to the spirit world, I can’t think of it.

On November 29, 1895, the very first professional athlete in America history to receive a death sentence was executed for the murders- a bloody act that had shocked the Illinois town where he lived. The murders and the hanging that followed two months later left a black mark on the city’s history – and they also left two separate hauntings behind.

On the hot New York City afternoon of June 26, 1897, a handful of boys were swimming in the East River just south of an abandoned dock at the foot of East Eleventh Street. The boys soon noticed a package floating nearby. In the package were two human arms attached to a man’s torso.

So much for a fun afternoon….
