Bloods Point Road
If one travels on this road toward the cemetery, he will notice a bridge just above the train tracks. Once, a school bus filled with children flew off the bridge, killing all the passengers. Today, if a car is put in neutral on this spot, it will be mysteriously pushed across the bridge. There is also a traffic light in the area that seems to change locations. In the cemetery many have seen a ghost and heard whistling.
Hey,
I am a 13 almost 14 years old and I do belive in ghosts and hunted houes I was just thinking how do u know that this really happens did u do it have you tested it? Let me no what you did and how you feel about it. Thanks bye!

I didn’t write that, but I happen to live less than a half hour from Blood’s Point, and I and many of my friends, have been, more than once. (We did not all go at the same time.) There is also a truck that chases cars, and sometimes runs them off the road, before dissapearing into thin air. And i’ve seen pictures of orbs taken in the cemetary. And, there’s supposedly a witch that lives on that road. (Sorry, I’ve never tried the bridge thing, I’m afraid to go on it, but I’ve heard many stories about it. It’s said to be the most hanuted part of the whole place. However I believe it’s actually on Sweeney Rd., not Blood’s Point.)

I also go there a lot but not to ghost hunt. You see I truely enjoy masterbating there as I feel like someone is always watching me. Makes me so excited I usually end up cumming more than once.
Comment by Mr. Parker | 11.28.2005 | 2:16 pm
you guys are just a bunch of dumbasses but ya i know nuthin really happens unless your out there for awhile and shirley bridge isnt haunted but there are ghosts at sweeney bridge right down the road from there ive never been in the church yet but i mught be goin during winter break and ill tell yall all about it.

P.S. at sweeney bridge there is a big metal electrical tower and the ghosts seem to love that area but dont stay in there for too long but they get mad and youll hear stuff like whispering or evenslow or fast footsteps but be careful there are thorny bushes out there and barbed wire too!

Comment by AMY | 01.3.2006 | 7:07 pm
I’ve been a lot i go there all tha time i dont live to far away and to see a lot of this stuff u have to keep going back. It dont happen every night and you have to make sure your in the right place. If your expecting to see a ghost thats on tha street 2 3 streets over ur not gonna see it. To any one who dont believe it its real. The getting pushed off the tracks put baby powder on the back of your car and sit on the tracks it dont happen everytime but if it does you will see that its the little kids pushing you off (Saving your life from what they experienced) there will be little kid hand prints on the car.
Comment by Devon | 01.11.2006 | 12:20 pm
Just to clarify everyone, I was just out on the bloodspoint bridge. And it is haunted. We where stopped in the middle of the bridge in park. Our dog we had with us started to freak out and so we decided to leave. My friend went to put her car into drive and the shifter wouldn’t shift. It was stuck in park. Ok this isn’t some pile of **** car either. It’s a newer car that has never had any problems of the sort. We finally got it shifted into drive and went down to the next driveway to turn around and the car shifted just fine anfter that. The cemetary is the next stop. I was too chicken to go in there after the whole car thing so planning on going tonight to take pictures and such.
Comment by Colleen | 01.17.2006 | 3:54 pm
I went to high school in Rockford and I went to Blood’s Point once with 5 other friends of mine. We had a few beers, while parked next to the cemetary. If I’m remembering correctly, there’s a farm house just down the street (east) of the cemetary, on the south side of the road… I could have my barrings off, it has been 15yrs ago or so now…Anyway, we all went in the cemetary, I believe it wasn’t very big?? My friend Kathy, Maureen, and I sat down, and took out our guija board (spelling?). We had asked the spirits if anyone wanted to talk to us. A woman said yes. I can’t remember a whole lot, but I’ll try. Kathy did the asking, she asked her how old she was, middle aged, not sure of exact age, anymore. She said that she had died in some kind of accident, maybe car? I think she was run over…. Again, so long ago… Kathy had asked her a question, and for some reason, I remember it scaring us enough for us 3 girls to want to leave. The 2 guys that came with, Greg, and Kathy’s friend? I can’t remember his name. But he was really nice.. They laughed at us when they saw how scared we were! We all went back to the car, and headed back home. But Greg, being the smart aleck that he always was! He decided to go back on the bridge!! We got towards the bridge, and the car acted like it was gonna stall! Us 3 just yelled at Greg to knock it off!! That we weren’t scared!!! Greg turned his head a screamed at us to be quite. He was obviously scared too! anyway, the car did keep going, but when we were on the bridge, the radio went to fuzz, and it was real load too! We all screamed, and the car almost crached into the side of the bridge! Very freaky!! Needles to say, we got home, and I haven’t been back since…Although, now I knda like too, once more, for old time sake!!!

Ok this is too much like the haubted railroad tracks that we have here in San Antonio, the samething happened here when a bus stopped on the tracks and couldn’t move and then got hit by the train and all got killed and basically the same happens.

Comment by Maranda | 03.25.2006 | 1:28 am
I am not sure what bridge you are all talking about. There is a bridge on Pool Rd. and that bridge is creepy. Supposedly someone was hung there and then buried under a tree nearby. I have been by Blood’s Point and it really isn’t scary and have seen no bridge. There is a house right next door. Do you really think that if it was haunted they would still live there? Don’t think so. I also heard there is supposed to be a witch or a warlock but have no idea where that is supposed to be. Please try to shed some light on the whole bridge thing. Thanks!
Comment by lazra79 | 04.12.2006 | 1:51 am
I don’t mean to burst anyone’s bubble, but several intersections of streets and railroads that supposedly have “guardian ghosts? that push you out of harm’s way have been debunked. First of all, the road leading to the tracks is usually on a downhill incline, but since the railroads sit higher it gives the illusion that you are going uphill. Second, the oil from your fingers and hand after shutting your trunk doesn’t get washed off by going through a car wash - you have to take a towel with soap and rub them off.
My advice - if you’re going to try to put baby powder on your trunk to see the prints, make sure you wipe off any residual prints of your own or anyone who has used your trunk first.
I do believe paranormal events can happen, but I think 9 times out of 10 there is a non-paranormal explanation for them.

Comment by jake | 05.8.2006 | 4:10 am
Yea, i went to bloods point a while ago and on the way there we were crossing some railroad tracks and almost hit a train that was crossing. we stopped 1 cm away from it from 45 mph. then when we got there it was like 12 and really really windy and we were walking around inside of the cemetary and my friend stepped on a grave that was dug up on accident and stepped on somethin. Thats when we decided to leave. We turned off of the road and a black truck started to chase us untill we got to belvidere. Then our car died right at the entrace to town and had to call someones dad to come get us.
Comment by Gage | 05.21.2006 | 11:12 pm
my ex just told me a story about Matilda who was a witch who haunts bloods point. I was also told about that bridge. But a different story. If you put your car in neutral in that spot, it will move over the train tracks… you’ll hear a train (but kno that the tracks have not been used for a very long time) and then sum screams and then silence. If you get out and look at your bumper, you’ll see 6 childrens finger prints… they were matilda’s children who were also killed.
Also, Matilda was hung on that bridge I believe. It’s been said that the rope is still there… and if you get close enough, you can see recent blood… she put up a fight when she was hung.
Comment by Tanya | 05.24.2006 | 2:40 am
My previous comment was deleted for some unknown reason.
The Bloodspoint Cemetery is on the northwest corner of the intersection of Bloodspoint Road and Pearl Road several miles south of Belvidere.
There is a house right behind the cemetery and a farmhouse to the east on the other side of Pearl Road.
Several miles down the road is a bridge that crosses OVER the railroad tracks, same as a bridge would cross OVER a river.
There are no traffic lights, for this is way out in the country.
Comment by JAM | 05.30.2006 | 7:40 pm
That story about ghost children pushing cars off of traintracks was actually from an episode of GHOST STORIES hosted by Patrick Macnee.
Voices or noises are likely to carry over from the nearby houses.
However, I did manage to catch a strangew light anomoly over a headstone using a digital camera during daylight.

Comment by JAM | 05.31.2006 | 8:12 am
Alright…I really wanna go check this place out. However, I do have one thing to say that I can pretty much guarantee is a lie about the stories above. The whole parking your car and being pushed off by children…it’s BS. There is a site in San Antonio where a bus stalled on the tracks, and all the kids and the bus driver were killed in the accident. All the streets passed the tracks are now named after each of the children that died in the accident. It has been documented time and time again that you can set your car in neutral on the tracks and every time…w/o fail…your car will be pushed off the tracks to reach the other side safely. Powder on the bumper has proven to show tiny finger prints on the back of the car. I think this is simply just how one story travels to other locations…and just ends up becoming a myth everywhere. Like Resurrection Mary…how many other places have you heard that story for other cemeteries than Resurrection Cemetery in Chicago, IL? Numerous. Never actually made wide-spread…just talked about in the towns nearby. Still going to check out Bloods Point Rd…see how much is true.

I first visited Bloods Point Cemetary when I was around 18 or so. Having heard stories about it all through high school, I was really curious and so a bunch of my friends all decided to go out there together one weekend night.
There were two cars, about seven of us total. We drove out to the cemetary first and looked around. It was indeed creepy, being out in the middle of nowhere and very old -but nothing really happened and we moved back to the bridge. We drove over it without incident on the way to the cemetary (we took river road from Cherry Valley to get there).
When we stopped on the way back, we all parked on the shoulder (no stalling or radio occurences) and climbed down to the tracks. We walked a few hundred feet, saw a deer, and got bored with that as well.
Finally, climbing back up to the bridge, one carfull of people left and four of us were left. We stood around in the middle of the bridge, next to the rail that overlooked the light (not a stoplight, but a railroad light of some type -flashing green).
Suddenly two of the other people stopped talking and looked up, as if they’d heard something. They both asked the question, “Did you hear that?” and myself and the other party laughed it off for about one second.
Then we heard some sort of snarl, like an animal. All four of us immediately bolted toward the car (parked about 30 feet away and facing home). We could hear the sounds of a pursuit -sounded like the claws of a dog- and climbed into the car freaking OUT!
The car took a few tries to get started and as the driver struggled with it, the rest of us locked our doors and peered into the darkness behind us for a dog or other animal. There was nothing.
I’ve visited since and just felt too intimidated to get out of the car -but I’ve never seen or heard any other paranormal activity.

You are all idiots i used to live in the house rite next to the cemetery on the same road. All the reports of whistleing and cars chasing you are just my family and friends. I’m sorry for disapointing you but there is the truth i hope you all can read this and finally just leave the place alone.

I have been to Blood’s Point many times, and I have yet to experience the chasing truck phenominom. I have seen different figures in the Cemetery, and have heard different noises around the shed. Another interesting thing to do is at night go to the bridge on Poole Rd, and walk around you will begin to feel unwanted, and if you go in 19 Feb you will actually see someone hanging from the bridge just there dangling, and “she” will appear to be looking at you with hateful eyes. I have expierenced that myself.

Yeah i went out there on thursday nite with a couple friends. we went to the cemetary and to the bridge and we saw nothing. We were at both locations for awhile and we did take pictures. In most of the pictures (almost all from cemetary) there was orbit like things in the pictures! it was kinda creepy. Yeah but we didnt like see or hear anything. It was neat
Comment by trishdizzle | 08.12.2006 | 9:16 pm
I think there is a similar story in Texas about a school bus full of children that stalled on train tracks and all the kids were killed by a speeding freight train. All the streets in the neighborhood were named after all the kids that were killed. If this crossing works like the one in Texas, I heard that it helps to put a little talcom powder on the back of your car so that you can see the little finger prints better.
Comment by Heather Barklage | 08.18.2006 | 7:57 pm
coming from a skeptic…..i hate that place. the true bridge is off of sweeney, for those of you from th rockford area its much like the harison/20th street bridge as its covered by trin tracks….one of the scariest places i have ever been, and everytime i leave that area a red truck with creme panneling on the sides has chased me, but just before it gets close, it vanishes. i turn around everytime to ee were it puuled off, and its no where to be found, problem is, there are no garages for it to park in….
so much for a skeptic i suppose
Comment by nick | 08.24.2006 | 1:37 am
I went to bloods point last night and we stopped at the cemetery and turned well we had only been on the road for about 5 minutes or less when a truck (not black) came out of nowhere and started to ride are *** my friends mom watched the headlights and after like 2 minutes the car was gone it didnt turn it was just gone. we are returning tonight to go to the bridge.

my aunt lives in rockford and she has not mentioned anything unusual and next time she comes i will ask her, but i wont know for a long time because she only comes out once every couple years she is not feeling well, however i was wondering if anything haunted goes on in th schaumburg area or in the suraounding towns just curious
Comment by susan | 09.17.2006 | 11:25 pm
Yeah, Schaumburg has all these creepy houses just popping up like magic……………If you want to get freaked out, go to The Excalibur. I went there a few years ago with my band and we had big group of people and around 2am a couple of us decided to help a bartender friend go get some stuff and to a person we felt something touch us. He seemed ok with it because he said it’s happened before, but the rest of us were completely freaked out. We walked through cold spots and the weird thing was the smell of old dirt when everything was concrete. I don’t have an answer for it, but it was freaky.
Comment by Kevin | 09.21.2006 | 2:14 pm
I have been doing alot of research on Blood’s Point Road. Firstly, there are a lot of things that can be explained…however, somethings can not.
If anyone was wondering, Blood’s Point comes from Able R Blood (or some say Arthur) who founded the town. Pearl Road was also called Blood Road (according to one researcher named Betty) and where Blood’s Point and Blood’s Road meet make the point.
If anyone has any stories to share or information on Blood’s Point Road….Please. Please Please drop me a note. Obtr32@aol.com
Comment by Pauly | 09.22.2006 | 5:53 pm
Ok - here is what I know about Bloods Point. Many many people mistake Flora Church Cemetary for Bloods Point Cemetary. Flora Cemetary is on Flora Church Road and is right across from Flora Church - the Church. My friends and I used to party in the cemetary nightly about 18 years ago. I have heard many stories but the only personal experiences I have had are seeing what appeared to be a sacrificed dog (a small white doge cut open from neck to navel and everything was removed)deep in the woods in the area, and yes, the car/truck following us. I’m not so sure that there are ghosts out there but rather “odd hillbilly people”
Comment by Becky | 10.5.2006 | 5:59 pm
okay!!i have this friend who went there and we didn’t go to the bridge, but the cemetary is really creepy. We went in the shed and the door closed on us. So we ran out then went back in and there were like weird stuff going on in the place. We heard footsteps and saw ghosts. We ran back to the car and there were handprints then all the doors were locked, but we didn’t lock them….we also saw the truck, it almost hit my car.always

Notting scary happend to us though.
Comment by Tom | 10.14.2006 | 12:43 am
I know this story is false for ONE main reason.. I live in Belleville Illinois, and the story is also HERE in my home town which is NOWHERE near where this story is from! Its all bogus. Its been said that the bus of kids died on the bridge(here it was a railroad crossing)and if you put baby powder on ur trunk lid you will see HUNDREDS of childrens fingerprints on it because the children are pushing you(onto the tracks) or possibly(if your heading the wrong direction) off the tracks to save your life.. but if you back up and stare at the road, its flat..oooo spooky! NOT.. the story is the same, but different slightly, and still is BOGUS! thought i’d let u know!
Comment by kim | 10.14.2006 | 2:33 am
Tonight me and my bf and good friend and my bf’s parents went out to Bloods Point.If you turn right onto the road you will find the cemetary.However if you turn left onto the road you will find the bridge over the railroad tracks,the bridge is shortly after you make the lefthand turn onto Bloods Point Road.We didnt see anything out at the cemetary so thats all bogus we think.However,when we went out to the bridge we could hear rocks being thrown and see the children down by the tracks.We also saw a dark figure standing down on the tracks that walked behind the truck we drove there in and my bfs mom saw it walk behind the truck and on the way back home we realized it came back with us.Piece of advice when you go out there don’t start swearing at them or yelling at them they get ticked off and may go back home with you.My friend Erik ticked them off and two followed us back.We got rid of one of them but the other however is now in my apartment where we all live.As for the black truck that follows you thats all bull cuz that didnt happen.Its pretty cool to check out just watch what you do or say when you’re out there!
Comment by Jeana,Mark,Erik | 10.15.2006 | 1:38 am
Im just curious if anyone out there has been to the forest perserve out by bloods point. Its the opposite way of the cemetary and honestly i think there’s more activity there then there is at the cemetary itself. My sister and myself went there to do some pictures for her photography class and the whole time it was very miss matched presences, you could feel some hostility and at other times kindness. It was just really odd plus in almost all the pictures you can see objects, or people and faces in the background. Im really involved with the supernatural and love this kind of stuff so if anyone has any more information on it please let me know. http://www.myspace.com/sick123
Comment by Miss Massacre | 10.17.2006 | 4:14 pm
i went out to bloods point a few times, the first time we didnt c anything but the 2nd time we went with 9 people and stood on the tracks on the bridge and everyone got a werid feeling of hostility. my friend had a dime in his hand and i heard the sound of it hitting the tracks but he still had it in his hand. some people heard noises in the bushes and growling noises. 2 of my friends were walking down the road and saw a shadow figure run by em and then it was gone…another good place to go is floral cementary…last time i was there me and my friends saw a large shadowy figure moving around by the shed, we took off running from it. it almost felt like it was trying to chase us out of the cemetery. went back towards it again and it would disapper when u went near it then re-apper when u walked away. it was very creepy, ive never seen 4 grown men run so fast in my life. i suggest everyone goes out and visits that place.

Comment by Danielle | 10.30.2006 | 12:11 am
Ok, so i have been randomly browsing this website and to be honest..im a little pissed off at some of the people on here. This is a site for hauntings. Whether or not they are real is something you find out for yourself. Don’t come here if you are going to give false information or stupid remarks. Go somewhere else for that. Some people actually might WANT to read information that is relevant. And they might actually want to go to these places. It doesn’t help if you just F**k around. Yeah, I do believe in some supernatural things and its fine if some of you don’t. But don’t come here and state that. I personally don’t care about you and I don’t think anyone else does either. So if you actually have something worth while to say go right ahead and say it. But if you’re going to be a D-bag about it.. go to hell.

Ok. I have an eyewittness account of a ghost car aswell as the black rig that you’re all talking about. First and foremost, I must say that Cherry Valley’s ghosts are not friendly. At all. Period. On to the account. My boyfriend was driving home through Cherry Valley from seeing his ex fiancee for one last time. He took bloods point rd. About midway down, at the entrance to Cherry Valley (the town) a set of blue lights turned on behind him. He thought it was just a car that turned onto the street. pretty soon it started gaining on him. He sped up, it sped up. Before long he was going almost 100mph, as fast as his car would go, and the thing was still gaining on him. He says it got close enough that he clearly saw a face in his rear view mirror. He now refuses to go through Cherry Valley, or even look at a sign for the town. And I don’t blame him. Cherry valley, and ghosts in genral are not things to be trifeled with. They can seriously do some damage. Take caution when you go there. It doesn’t matter how many crosses you carry, they can and will harm you if given the chance.

I think ghosts are real

Click my name if you want to visit a forum that seriously discusses the supposed hauntings of Bloodspoint Road and surrounding areas.
I say ” supposed ” because honestly, I have yet to see any documented evidence of what could qualify as a haunting. Even photographs I have taken were either debunkable with a little persistence or could not be classified as one way or another.
And most of the comments posted here and elsewhere on the Internet are more hype and hysteria.
There might be a legitimate haunting in this area, but it is a difficult case to make.
It’s easy to say there is based on personal experiences or hand-me-down stories, but too often these are embellished after already being the result of imaginations working overtime.
It’s both fascinating and ridiculous how haunted the area has become based on word of mouth.

I lived out there and my best friend and his wife still do. The farm kids like myself chased you city ghost hunters with our trucks to watch you freak out. There isn’t anything out there.

Comment by alley | 01.5.2007 | 10:01 pm
ok i know that there is something out there that is scaring all of you on bllods point road. but trust me whatever it is leave it alone it is not something you want to mess with. these evil spirits can attach themselves to you if you open up your mind to them they can live in your house. they are not something to mess with. an if you choose not to listen to me well then thats your problem if you screw up your life it has not one affect on me. these spirits are not ment to be screwed with so just leave them at rest. i just thought i would give you a heads up.
Comment by Jasmin | 01.5.2007 | 10:34 pm
It has been a while since I have been out there but when I went there the black truck chased us and the ghost were walking in the cemetary. I believe in ghosts because we have some in the building we live in. We also saw a red light. My friends are out there right now so I will find out if they see anything and report to all of you but we are planning a trip out there soon.
Comment by Lissa | 01.8.2007 | 1:15 am
Oh man…I’m from Stillman and its been a couple of years since I’ve been there and quite a few times me and my friends went over there and didnt see anything. We would make stuff up just to scare one person in the car….but there was two times I swear scared the **** out of me. Once I was driving with friends by the cemetary and nothing happened but as we got further away someone started following us I sped up and the car stayed right on our butt. I was goin over 80 miles an hour and they still kept up with me then I thought they turned off their lights cuz the car just dissappeared and the people in the backseat were freaking out.
Another time right before halloween I went out there with friends in two cars. One car stopped at the cemetary before we got to it and a cop came out of nowhere with lights on to see why they were tresspassing. we kept driving past. we only got a block or two away when we started to get pulled over. All of a sudden theres like 6 cop cars(no joke) surrounding our car. We were scared out of our mind. The cop asked what we were doing and we said we were lost. They said to get out of the area because there was alot of **** goin down that night and we shouldnt be there. It must have been pretty important for that many cops is all I know. I was only 16 and now am 21 and will never forget that.
Theres another story if any of you are interested in the area to check out I swear its worth it. Right outside of Leaf River, IL you drive by this huge hill and when you turn around and your lights hit it just right you can see a gravestone glowing in the night. They say its a real cemetary and the tombstone was made out of a certain granite that made it shine when light hits it. Its really creepy. My dad told me about that one and I’ve seen it myself. Hes a cop too…

Comment by Rickie | 02.10.2007 | 5:34 am
Iv’e been out there a lots times. I live about 20 minutes away. The fisrt time i went out there nothing happend. But the 2nd time, that scared the **** out of me and my friend Justin,
we were on blood’s point rd when we hit some dense fog, threw the fog we saw a light that was on the side of the rd(looked like a broken reflector) when we got close it vanished and the grave yard was to the imidate left. We were both like did u see that light. we passed the grave yard and did a uie. while doing so my friend Justin said “i see bodies out in the field”. i thought he was messing with me. So i’m back on bd pt. and i’m searching for the light, we don’t see anything.
turned out the bodies in the field were just cows .but at this point my freind was like WE JUST SCENE AN ORB, I’m calling it the pop can from hell,there a lot of trash on the side of that road. So now we head to the creppy bridge on wheler, I stop my car under neath the bridge and turn it off. we sat there for a few secounds and waited. Didn’t hear or see anything. Thats when it happend, My friggin car wouldn’t start, didn’t even turn over, all the emergency lights came on but that was it. Well justin was looking at me like WTF and i had a panicked look on my face. I realy didn’t wanna push a Grand Marquee out from underneath that bridge.
if you have scene it you know what i’m talking about. It has two wooden pilliars on both sides and is realy rickety looking. Any way i get this bright idea to turn the intirrier lights on. I was still in drive. so i put the car in nutral and it fired up right away.as i squeled my tires as i drove away as fast as humanly posible. still in a state of shock.
He still won’t let me live that down till this day
Comment by Vash | 03.9.2007 | 6:00 am
I used to go out there…many years ago. It is very creepy.
One night a few years back, it was close to Halloween and my friend was going take some of his friends out there. The friends have never been. It was late and they took off with their flashlights. My husband and I waited a good 10 minutes or so then we decided to go out there and be the ones to scare them. Little did we know that we’d be the ones getting scared.
We had just pulled in to the pull-off spot, got out, and flashlight in hand started to walk up the cliff then all of a sudden all these police cars surround us. I guess there is a lot of rapes that go on out there and once there was a person left for dead. After searching our vehicles and such everything was OK. But the police did say that that’s not really a good place to hang out. Pretty much…Stay Away. I’m sure that there is stuff that the police didn’t tell us. Haven’t been back since.
Isn’t it supposed to be an Indian Burial Ground?

Let me first say I never believed in ghosts until we stole the head stone of “the witch” of bloods point. Im telling you talk about some scary stuff. We ended up taking it back too many creeping things happened. There is also a road that heads north and south by the old slaughter house (the slaughter house is on the north east corner) head south on that road and it’s like the road just drops off your headlights stop just at the trees and no matter how close you get the road can not be illuminated.

i am from the belvidere area and i drive through on cheery valley rd. i never even knew any of this existed on bloods point rd but i have encountered ghosts before. i have complete respect for them even though i they dont scare me but it is a weird thing.but i have to say i havent ever seen anything around there but there is definitely somethingthat just doesnt feel rite even on cheery valley rd and bloods point rd its very creepy aroundthere. the only thing i can think of is there was abad accident just south of blooods point on cheery valley rd like 5 years ago it killed acouple people bu t i dont know it just feels spooky in that area.
Comment by joshua | 07.2.2007 | 12:39 am
I live in Poplar Grove, Il (about 10mi from Cherry Valley) and went to the cemetary last weekend. The most upsetting thing that happened was we almost ran over a family of kittens on the way there. The cemetary was lame, nothing spooky about it. Get a life people!

i am 29 now and live in iowa now–before tht is was raised in rockford from the age of 13 till moved in 1997- mny times i went to bloods point and other locations around bloods point — if you go there excpecting something to happen all to often it wont the energies in the area some are atracted to fear others to simple curosity — but there are postive and NEGATIVE energies in this area–go in with an open mind-many orbs have been photographed and if weather permiting for exact audio recording-i personally have recorded on 18 differnt occasions-voices of male and female young and old alike — in the area of the older graves and the shed area has an energy of its own which does interact with the living–ask a question and if conditions are right you will get an answer–remember an open mind and no fear–

Comment by Megan | 07.11.2007 | 5:28 pm
About 7 years ago I was driving on Cherry Valley Rd on my way to Dekalb. I was chased by a car or truck or something around the Bloodspoint area. I don’t know what it was because all I saw were headlights. This car was literally about 6 inches from my bumper and chasing me going about 85 mph. I flew over some train tracks and it was gone. Scariest moment of my life. When I was in High School my cousins would try to scare us out there, but nothing ever happened on the bridge or cemetery. I believe if you’re looking for something, your mind isn’t open to what it already there. It’s when you’re not looking is when something happens.
Comment by Justme | 08.2.2007 | 2:19 pm
Sorry to tell everyone this but, i live 5 minutes away from bloods point road and sweeney aka poole rd. The first time i went i was scared but nothing happened so i took my friend with me the next night and we stayed in there, it was scary yeah but once again nothing. And then on halloween we took more friends, had fun some people said they seen a car disapear but there full of it probably were so drunk. Then me and my other friend went to the rocks on sweeney where the farmer was suppose to be, we did see soemthin freaky bird feathers (not single still with skin on it) on the ground very wierd. any way we scared peoepl they thought we was a ghost or soemthin HA. but then we walked to bvloods point and oncew again nothin. OH and the bridge thing isnt real the bridge slopes…. how ever one thing does freak me out, heading near the rocks i always see eyes in the tree even when i had back but i never see and animal body just eyes. BUT THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT I DOTN BELIEVE SOMETHING IS THERE. i just think you cant be going there to find somethin if you iknow what i mean. ANOTHER time freaked me out alot it was a really foggy day really foggy to were you had to drive really slow or you would be in the corn field, when i returned home there was hair and feathers on my front bumbper and i did nothit anything, very wierd.
Comment by Adam | 08.13.2007 | 10:14 pm
OK, so last night I went on that road with some friends. Oh boy, it was freaky! We were dirving out there and i looked behind us and saw a stop light. I looked back agian and it was gone. I did’nt really hink anything about it, because I thought i was just freaking myself out. We went over the bridge but didnt put it in nutrel, just dorve over it. Nothing happened. As we sarted driving home there was a car behind us. We got up to 100 mph and the car was still getting closer. Before it could reach us it disappeard as we reach the Bypass. We were dissapointed that nothing happened, until we started reaching into town. I looked over at my freinds window and saw a hand print on the window. I aske dher if she put her hand on the window, but she didnt. As she meassured her hand to the hand on the wondow, it appeared outside the car and wa shalf the size of hers! It looked like a child’s hand. All of us looked on our windows. One window in the back and front had prints on it, each we oppisits sides from eahc other. On the driver side window was a hand that looke dlike it tried to grad onto the carbut becasue we went so fast its hand dragged acoss the windows. It was too freaky yet exciting. I think we are going back out there tonight I’ll tlak about it later.

Comment by Matt | 08.25.2007 | 2:01 pm
i have been to bloodspoint once. i cant remember where exactly i was but it was on a dark road with a lot of tress and bushes. kinda like being in the woods. me, my boyfriend, and our friends got out of the car and started walking around. we didnt hear much for a lil while. but then out of nowhere we heard aniamls howling, like wolves and a girl screaming. like she was being attacked by the animals. then we went to this cemetary. i dont rememb er exactly what road it was on but its a private cemetary. theres a white house and whote shed next to it. and theres a gate around it. we went into the cemetary and walked around looking at the stones. i had to pee really bad, so i went over by a tree. and when i did we heard a chainsaw being turned on in the shed and the door started to open. we all ran and got into the car. my boyfriend and his friends have been there a couple times. and they went on the bridge. his car stalled out and wouldnt start. some people might not believe that its haunted. ive been there once and only 2 things happened. it just depends on when you go. like being in the right place at the right time.
Comment by tiffany | 08.25.2007 | 11:57 pm
We just went out there and boy was that a trip. First it took a while to find it but then we found the road. There was a full moon too. Once we got on Bloods Point road you could feel the ghostly power.
We got to the bridge and put our car in nuetral like we were told. We sat there and pretty soon we saw this shadow. We started to freak out. I tried to start the car but it wouldnt budge. Something knocked on the window and there was a gigantic cow wearing a straw hat. He wanted to know if we had any Grey Poupon. He needed something to help with the tasteless straw he had to eat. We said no and pretty soon the car started again. We looked on our windows and sure enough on the back ones were hoof prints. 16 of them like little cows were tap dancing on the windows.
We found the cemetary and parked. All these cows were sound asleep. We smelled the wonderful spirit of cow poop. There were shiney orbs just like you all said. They looked like giganitic disco balls and sure enough that witch was doing the macarana with a ghost. Hands were coming out of the graves and snapping to the beat. Man we got out of there. It was all we could handle. Whew! We almost died out there. Be careful!!!!! Deadly cows are waiting for you and the smell will kill you.
Comment by c.l. | 08.26.2007 | 12:49 am
Ive been there 4 times and every time i am there something always ends up happening. I went to valley days with friends and my boyfriend, we got bored and left to bloods point. We all walked under the bridge on the train tracks. We started walking down them and we heard the voice of a little girl say either Hi or Bye, we couldnt really understand what the voice was saying, we all juss looked at eachother and ran without even saying anything. Under the bridge theres bones scattered all along the railroad tracks. Gross! anyways, theres also the haunted woods. We went there last night also. We parked and got out of the car, we heard a moaning three times. so we all jumped back in the car. My boyfriend and his friend went up to the cobble stone steps leading to the path that takes you to the woods. They ran back and said there was someone walking on the path. I didnt see it myself but my boyfriend was pretty freaked. and the whole car chasing you thing, is true, cause it happened once, but it wasnt a truck it was a car.

This is all a bunch of bull. Nothing ever happens and it’s totally people’s imaginations. You get yourself psyched and then “think” you hear things.
Until something happens to me, and I have been here a lot, I wont believe it!
Comment by lucy | 08.26.2007 | 2:38 pm
I was out there last night. I visited the bridge on the way. nothing happened. The cemetery was lit well with the moon almost full and that big light in the middle of the plot. Other than some noises that were probably animals and what sounded like a child laugh as we entered the shed nothing. The laugh was very quick and we barely heard it. A childs laugh is the best thing i can describe it too. The cemetery and bridge were kinda lame. Then we went to the woods and that was creepy. We were all good until we got to the edge of the woods my friends were afraid to enter but i went into the trees about twenty feet or so, and we started hearing voices from every direction. As soon as i walked out and we started walking back they faded. I heard there is a church hidden away out in those woods. Id like to go again with some braver people and find this place. If anyone is interested email me at tompettynirvanacannibalcorpse@yahoo.com

where is the woods and church? And how do you get under the bridge?
Comment by c.l. | 08.27.2007 | 5:02 pm
okay, ive been to bloods point about 10 times in the past 2 years. nothing has ever happened to me. the worst thing that happened to me was when me, my cousin, and 2 girls went with us, my cousin let some girl drive his car, and she crashed into a ditch in some guys yard on river road, which is pretty much bloodspoint. you can still see the tire tracks and the big hole we left in the dirt from the car smashing into the hill where it happened, it was right past the corner of river road and burton road. right in front of a house. we then got out and walked towards bloodspoint road for about 2 hours before the people that were looking for us found us, we made it to shirley bridge. it doesnt seem that far, but when you walk it is. and the whole time we were out there, nothing happened. but the last time i went with some friends, and we were in a black truck, and we chased a couple of people, they took off like a bat outta hell. another time we went there, the gravekeeper who owns the house next to the cemetary was having a bonfire/party, and there were about 30 cars parked in his driveway and across the street, and most of them were outside right next to the cemetary. needless to say, bloodspoint road isnt haunted, and neither is the cemetary. its mostly kids who go out there and get drunk or high and then haullucinate.

Bloods Point Road is lame honestly and there is nothing on Flora Church Road just 2 roads south of Bloods point where the “church” is located and the small little village of Irene isnt haunted either NOR is it abandoned DON’T BREAK IN

Comment by veronica | 09.7.2007 | 6:30 pm
To C.L.
The church is on a road called “sweeny rd”. If you are heading AWAY from the cemetery on bloods point rd keep going. bloods point will turn into another road, i dont remember what its called that it turns into, but sweeny road will be a right turn. its quite a ways down the road till sweeny road. then you will be traveling south on sweeny road. mapquest it and you will see it. you will drive under a old wooden bridge and thats “supposed” to be haunted too (but i never saw anything). but anyways keep going a little further and on your left you will see a parking spot. its gravel and has large bolders around it. you cant miss it. then get out and walk past the boulders and you will find stone steps leading to a path thats hard to see. follow that path and (its a ways back there) but you will walk into the woods, and on your right in the woods is where the church USED TO STAND. it is destroyed. if you look youll see one of the foundation walls still stands and theres a large boulder there as well. creepy but i dont know about “haunted”. but as for the cemetery, i do believe it is haunted.
Comment by morgan | 09.14.2007 | 11:28 pm
Honestly, the thing about where you sit there with truck in neutral and it pulls you back…. The road is slanted. My teacher and I had a discussion about it not too long ago and he actually got out and took a look to see why it was doing that. It’s not entirely noticable, but it’s just enough that it’ll get your car/truck rolling.
Comment by Sean | 09.17.2007 | 1:14 pm
i visited the graveyard with a group of people about 7-8 years ago. we went into the shed where we discovered a dead cat that was flattened. There is also an old outhouse, and i heard a voice say “get out” i also witnessed, along with a few others, several red orbs. we went to the site of the farmhouse where the farmer supposedly killed his family? and the silo was still standing. upon poking my head inside, i heard whispering in a different language, possibly latin? i was completely sober, as were my companions. i feel no need to go back to this place and disturb whatever is there!
Comment by kat | 09.18.2007 | 8:46 pm
one time i went to that place with my sister on sweeny road u know were the church is suposse to be in the woods well we got down in the woods were the was a clearing like it was empty space except for trees all around it it didnt dawn on me at the time but a little later i realized it was windy as hell in there but when we got out there was hardly any wind at all and my flashlight was fine before i got in there but then it started to dye as we tryed to find our way out, idk but that was creepy as hell
Comment by Amy | 09.27.2007 | 5:35 pm
I have been to BP many times. The scariest thing there is the cops :O. I got an EVP on a gravestone taht clearly said a death meatl “GET OUT”. As soon as you move you camera over the chainlink fence, it will die. When under the bridge, electronics wont work and there is an eeri feeling. The dissapearing car…lol. The road is COVERED in hills. Headlights dissapear, they went down the hill and will pop back up. SO people go and investigate, but there are many houses taht they can pullin or streets to turn on. Tehe place is haunted because of all the deaths, but there is no haunting cars. By the way, every house on the road is brown, red, or white…go figure.
Comment by chronic | 10.1.2007 | 7:44 pm
On our way back from the bridge we were doing a 3 point turn. That is turning around in the middle of the road. Well my friend went too far and we went down the hill about 6 feet away from the metal guard on the side of the road. We wetn down a steep hill, and almost flipped. lol. I was soo scared. Dude, gets controle and we drive throught the feild back to where the hill wasnt steep. His muffler got tore up. HAHAHAHA

Hey I’m 13, last night myself,my cousin, my (soon to be cousin) and my (soon to be cousin’s) cousin, went out to blood point. All the lights in the church were off except the lights in the basement. my cousin’s cousin was telling about all of his expeiriances(sp?)(one was about a dead rabbit with a circle of candles around it, which we thought meant witchcraft or a cult. anyway me and my, almost cousin WOULD NOT go into the old part of Flora Cemetary. So, we went a ways into the new part. As soon as we got out of the car i had a feeling something was going to happen. We had just came from a haunted house (not literally) and i said to the “We just came from a haunted house, but now this is real life, so screw this. we all went back into the car and started to go back the way we came. We were headed towards Irene road and were going to the bridge (where all the children died)to test the put the car into nuetral theory. on our way a car came towards us swirving in the road, it then got back into its own lane and was almost at us. as we passed, something flew out of the window and hit the windshield HARD. i thought my cousin driving was shot so i turned around and tried to get a plate. THE CAR WAS GONE! we were all in shock of what just happened it seemed to be a big truck of some kind. After that we all looked at eachother and said “im out” we all went back to my cousins apartment and tried to make sense of what happened. Now we’re going back tonight with a to see what’ll happen. If anyone wants to leave me a message my email is pichlthe.2013@hotmail.com

Everyone is talking about a black truck. I live in rockford, and me and 3 friends drove out there a few nights ago. We drove around checkin out everything, but we decided not to go in the cemetery or the house that is supposed to be haunted. however, the house next to the “haunted house” has a big black pick up truck. coincidence? possibly… but chances are, the owner of the house/truck get pissed that they have teens every weekend goin out there to get drunk or high or whatever so they scare the s*** out of them to get them to leave.

Me and a bunch of friends went out to bloods point tonite. First we stopped at (what we thought) was the bridge where the people were hanged or w/e….and we all got on top of the bridge when a loud *** train whistle blew….at first we were scared to death but we soon realized it was a real train and got back in our cars and went to the second bridge with the “blood puddle”. It was pretty spooky looking and all but when we were leaving we found a bottle of fake blood on the side of the road, obiously not real. Finally, we went to the cemetery. At first, I wasn’t scared at all and we took pictures to try and see orbs but we did not. We went into the shed then and my friend had his cell phone camera going however we were paying attention to the walls (trying to figure out what they said, and also if you shine a light on the far right wall and then shut it off u will see glow in the dark paint) but anyways we left. There was no one chasing us or anything…but anywayz on the way home we watched the video and the video showed a pitch black room for the most part EXCEPT for a half a second where what looks like a flame suddently appears out of mid air and you can hear a faint voice in the background making a Breathing/Moaning noise. After i got home i did some research and http://groups.msn.com/HauntedRockford/yourwebpage.msnw
says that a witch was well known for making fire with her fingers…….this is very true!!!!

I just noticed that a lot of the people that said they would write back about what happened didn’t. I don’t know but that seems a little weird to me.

Comment by laura | 10.22.2007 | 8:56 pm
I have actual and personal experience with this place. My ex-wife and I used to frequent cemetaries and other “supposed” haunted places. We drove out there a few times in the 80’s and had some pretty strange experiences. It is for real but the stories vary. One thing that I know for sure is the bride and the house on the corner as well as the cemetary. Here is the story and what actually happened upon our visit.
The story: If you turn right from the intersection of Bloods Point and Wheeler Rd you will get to an intersection that has only a left curve. The House is on the right corner with a large barn adjacent. If you round the corner, the small cemetary is on the right. This is true. Supposedly the owner of the house went mad and killed his entire family in the house and then hung himself from the bridge down the road. For many years the house remained “as-is” untouched including the childrens toys in the front yard with the main attraction being a tipped over tricycle and a young boys hat. BTW the school bus thing happened too, but that was years after.
Our Visit: It was weird. I am a skeptic but this was wierd. The tryke was there, the place looked abandoned and lights came on in the barn in the middle of the day, only in a couple of windows that were separated by about 15 ft. We visited the cemetary and as we were reading headstones we were shot at from someone (something) in a black truck that disappeared as fast as it arrived, out of nowhere on a gravel road, no dust! We hauled out of there and did not go back. There is something to it!
The cars move because of the overall landscape. It is on a downward slope overall so gravity takes over. There are places in the world where it looks like water is flowing uphill for the same reason. Simple science but the original myth is still to be busted in my opinion. I honestly believe the original story to a degree, I lived in that area for over 20 years.
BTW: The witch Beula thing is over, she died in an old folks home with my grandmother. Dont know about the house though.

Well, I lost my virginity on this road while i was on cocaine. I was not expecting much but a ghost came up and slapped my *** because, I of course like it on top. My brother, who was on bottom had passed out by then. The stench of my sweaty balls filled the air. My menorah was burning bright. Anyway we got hit by the train. I am dead.
Comment by ramone | 10.27.2007 | 9:21 pm
Me and three other friends went out to the cemetary about 3 mounths ago and did some EVPs and some pictures. Got nothing on the EVPS or pictures but on the way out I heared what sounded like A cat but my friend said it sounded like A baby crying we looked around and found nothing around that made that sound. So we went back in and the same sound happened again at the same spot. W looked around and as I was standing on the spot where the sound came from I heard it again but this time it was coming from my feet. I was really creeped out after that and said lets get the —- out of here real fast. Till this day I do not know what was making that noise but I will go back there and try and find out.
Comment by Charles | 10.30.2007 | 8:40 pm
When i was younger about 24 years ago we went out there.The place was deffinetely wierd especially at night but we never saw any thing unusual.There were always rumours about homeless men being murdered in a barn around there or being killed by the bridge.One time my younger brother went there with his friends and they found a old barn that was close to bloods point and they went in the barn,They found alot of sado-masochism porn magazines and snuff magazines.So even if the area isnt haunted there is still a lot of bad energy in the area.

I have been there, and putting your car in nuetral is because the bridge is on a slope. Im not sure about the cemetary part but I know the bridge part is not real.
heres some things that we’ve heard about it:
Supposedly if you go back into the graveyard an old man with a gun will appear.
A black car will follow you, then when you get out it will dissapear.
And if you touch a certain gravestone you will hear a baby crying.
Sometimes you can hear a women scream.
Comment by carly and caitie | 11.9.2007 | 7:46 pm
I went here quite a few times, and another myth from here was if you park your car under the bridge for 5 minutes when you start it to leave it wont start! So the fool that i am i tested it out and when the clock hit the fifth minutes a freight train came out of no where ( i guess there is a bridge where the tracks are above you) and was loud as **** so i punched it outta there. i didnt get chased by anything that time. but a few other times cars and trucks come out of no where and will follow you until your pretty close the city limits!!
Comment by Jared | 11.10.2007 | 1:58 am
We also went to the cemetary a couple times nothing really happened we just walked around it. but we did see orbs near the trees, and hearing weird noises.
Comment by Jared | 11.10.2007 | 2:00 am
Update 2007 FYI bloodspoint myth’s still remain and do exist! 11/10/07 this night our crew were chased from the cemetary by the “Phantom truck” we were persued and chased from the cemetary after 3 mins. of being there. Also it remained there when our return trip out was also chased out! then disappeard as we went down poole road.Myth ? Legend? dont know but the event was all too real and all too scarry!

Over this pass weekend I went to bloods point with five of my friends! We had put the car in nutural on the bridge and we were pushed off of the bridge!! Also, when my cousin was there he said the phantom farmer that is in his pickup truck chased him!!
Comment by Sabrina | 11.18.2007 | 6:47 pm
Well, a few friends and I went out to bloods point a few years ago. I do believe it is haunted. As for the phantom truck, it is the groudskeeper for the cemetary. The truck chased my friends and I all over and almost ran us off the road until finally the police pulled us over and tried to charge us with trespassing in the cemetary. I explained to the police about the truck and they told me who he was and they he tries to scare people away from the cemetary because of vanadalism out there. So, the truck is not a ghost. It is real. And by the way, he leaves after he calls to cops. We did not get charged with trespassing because we had not vandalized anything.
Comment by Amanda | 11.26.2007 | 6:06 pm
Like most of you reading this now I too read all of these posts and wanted to give this myth a try. After doing some research and trying to map out where Bloods Point Rd. was I decided to drive out there with my friend Julie. We left my house at daytime and drove out there so we could easily get back in case we would get lost since we were driving into unknown territory in the middle of nowhere.. Anywhohow the first trip there we got a good sense of how to get there and back. After about 2 hours of driving we came across BLOODS POINT ROAD!!!! we took a right off of Cherry Valley Rd. at the stop sign with bullet holes in it which marked the beginning of Bloods Point Rd. As we drove down Bloods Point Rd. going East we noticed an abandoned house on the left hand side. We decided we were going to keep driving to get to the cemetery 1st and stop by the house on our way back. After a few minutes of driving down Bloods Point Rd. we arrived to the Cemetery we imagined this Cemetery to be very creepy and big, instead it was the opposite it was very small and not creepy at all which disappointed me some because of this long *** drive there. We pulled over and went inside the cemetery… once inside we looked at some of the gravestones and they were very old and that was pretty cool. Then I saw this house on the corner with a big black truck and I told Julie that’s the “ANGRY BLACK TRUCK” that chases people we both got a laugh out of it. We then proceeded to the back of the Cemetery and I got a weird chill up my back, I felt something really eery by one of the gravestones and the shed. We both walked into the shed and it didn’t seem weird at all…. There are some boards in there and some rusted old paint cans.. We then left the Cemetery heading back On Bloods Point Rd. We stopped by the weird abandoned house and went to the back and in the shed where we found old rusted mail boxes.. old street signs and an old lawnmower tractor.
We decided to go into the creepy house but none of the doors were open.. We finally found one open door on the side of the house. We went in and it looked very 50s.. We decided to leave but regret not actually going in to and into the basement to see if there were any crazy ghosts and such. We got back to the car and drove to the bridge and it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary accept the big Jewish star spray painted on the street… we decided to head back and return at night…
2nd Trip: We returned at night and I was pissed off cuz nothing scary happened so I decided to do doughnuts at the end of the road and honk my horn in hopes for the groundskeeper of the Cemetery a.k.a. ANGRY BLACK TRUCK to come chase us…but I guess he didn’t feel like chasing us because he didn’t come out or even yell at us.. maybe he wasn’t home but his big black truck was there. I finally gave up and went to the bridge to try out that myth about the kids pushing your car off. We put the car in neutral NOTHING HAPPENED !!!! (wasn’t expecting it to). To our great disappointment we headed back and we saw an old white abandoned farm house on the right and it looked really creepy so we didn’t stop because it was 11:30 PM and if something were to happen we were too far away from home, we decided we would come back with more people to check it out.
3rd Trip: By now I was really over obsessed with this place and the whole BLOODS POINT RD. myth that I went back with some more friends… Unfortunately we picked the wrong day to go back.. this was 2 days b4 Thanxgiving at 2 a.m. It was snowing and it sucked.. As we drove by the weird abandoned farmhouse I saw a ghost run across and it looked like the mother ******* devil himself… or maybe it was my mind playing tricks on me… whatever it was I don’t know we drove to the bridge and now it was dark.. Again we put the car in neutral and nothing happened… then we decided to try and find the “Satanic Alter” on Poole rd. but it was really late and the roads were icy so we drove back. That was the end of that trip.
4thTrip: Again I was bored and had nothing to do… We got some other people that wanted to go there that payed us for gas and we drove there… we went into the graveyard and into the shed and we didn’t hear any voices nor did any paranormal things happen in the cemetery.. It was really cold so we drove back.. This time we stopped by the Old Abandoned Barn house.. We pulled into the driveway and I turned the brights on so we could have some light since it was late at night.. The lights started flickering and they turned off along with the car that was running to give us light. We decided to look in the old big sheds and we found that they were locked accept one wasn’t and it had some farming equipment in it. The house was falling apart so we didn’t go inside in case it would cave in on us we then drove back.
___ I’m probably going to go back there again to the old barn house, the old house on Bloods Point Rd. the Cemetery and the “Satanic Altar” in the middle of the woods. I will have pictures and footage of em’ all … if you wanna talk about this feel free to e-mail me http://www.velniciuc@comcast.net

Hey yall i went to school in Belvidere and grew up there we did alot of pranks on under classmen that sound like alot of these stories so to those of u who r still haunted by our pranks i appoligize but i do believe there are some weird thing in the cemetary on more than one ocasion we lost all power to flash ligth abd cell phones only for them to work fine when we left and me and a couple of friends have seen orbs and apperitions in the cemetary even what appeared to be a person hanging from a tree everyone have fun with it
Comment by Jeff | 02.12.2008 | 2:47 am
Hey, I just want to say that I really don’t think that they are pranks the first time I went out there I felt something very bad, I think that there are people down that road that do Santanic spells. And if you go down Sweeney After the bridge on you’re left side there is a place where you can pull over well me & my sister & my brother & my father went out there & we got of the car to see if we can get the farmer to chase us so my dad likes to play jokes on us, so he drives away leaveing me my sister & my brother there so we go after him all of a sudden this truck comes out of no where so my dad stoped after the bridge to let us in the car the truck was going really slow my sister and I loked at the people in the truck but the where glowing white as soon as the truck got about 2 feet in font of my dad’s car it disappered. If anyone is interested in becoming a ghost hunter or has any more stories contact me at mysticrose26@comcast.net
Comment by Skyler | 02.20.2008 | 6:35 pm
Some friends and I went over the bridge recently. Nothing happened the first time over. We put the car in neutral. We had a strange feeling of a prescence surrounding us, but we left since nothing happened. We visited the cemetary at the end of the road, but there was no paranormal activity. On the way back, we headed towards the bridge again, but my friend who was driving slammed on the brakes before we could cross it. We were stunned to see the movement of small, black, human-form shadows crossing the road ahead. The shadows crossed the bridge and became floating red orbs! I’m not one to believe in this stuff, but I tell you I saw it with my own eyes! I will never go back there again…I could not sleep with the light off for days!
Comment by Josh | 02.25.2008 | 1:58 am
OMG People come on now. 99% of the gibberish posted is just that, PURE UNINHIBITED GIBBERISH!
I have been out there myself countless times, was into devil worship in the 80’s and was drawn to the place for that very reason. Nothing is out there aside from a creepy name for a road. No witches, no ghosts and no orbs.
What part of Urban Legend are you not understanding here? All these people going to some small communities’ place of rest and stirring up activity and disturbances, vandalizing the place and wreaking havok because of some urban myth they heard? Please be more realistic than that.
Do some research, check out Belvidere library and the Boone Cty zoning board. All the answers you seek are there. NOONE has ever been chased by a ghost vehicle (at most a drunken farmer pissed off at your prescence) there is no witch buried anywhere (in reference to the town of Flora, the Beuller buried there had NO HISTORY of any type of evils or misdoings).
You people are fools (to give you more credit than you deserve at that). Its a farm community that doesnt want bothered with your foolish urban myths and legends. For fux sake it is the year 2008 and kids and teens alike are flocking to this place for nothing. NOTHING IS THERE. Cattle walk the perimeter, the shed is old and decrepid and holds nothin that hasnt already been stolen.
Bloodspoint cemetery is nothing more than a typical old place of rest for past fallen loved ones. Why cant you people respect that and leave it alone? Noone died on a bridge, the tracks run under the damn thing. Nothing pushes you across, theres no ghost train and if anyone follows you or rams you off the road, its either a drunken farmer or some punks like you playing kid games.
DONT BE STUPID! Just leave the place alone, there is nothing there! I dont even live near there and you people annoy me to no end with your bunk, fictitious stories. DO some research, this foolishness MUST STOP.
Comment by OMFGPeople | 03.4.2008 | 10:20 pm
I have gone out there several times. Yeah, the bridge is real creepy but anyones car can act up. However, I was chased by the big truck and then it disappears it is true. Ghosts are real wherever you are, you just don’t realize it. This place can be really spooky but I had alot of great fun party times out there with my friends and Randy Rhoads. If anyone knows him or of these times hi
Comment by val minnick | 03.6.2008 | 5:20 pm
Here, this is where you start if you really want to know whats real and whats 100% pure urban myth.
http://www.rootsweb.com/~ilwinneb/winbngen.htm
Pay the fees, become a member and you too will find the truth.
Your next step is the Belividere library. Dig around and all the answers you seek are there for you (but I doubt any of you will do the research).
Third step is to contact the Boone County zoning board. They can tell you who owns the land in all of Boone County and from there you can follow your own leads that it provides.
Fifth step is to take the information you find, go out there in the daytime, do a PROFESSIONAL report and talk to the people in the area. Tell them you are there to put an end to the myths and vandalism surrounding the area. Most of the people will be happy to provide information to you to end all this.
Sixth, go to the township of Flora during the day. Locate the church (Sunday is a good day to try no?) and talk to the minister there. BE PROFESSIONAL for fux sake.
Seventh, after all this, THEN go to the cemetery grounds WITH the groundskeeper (located adjecent to the cemetery) and have him tell you about it. Pay your respects to the fallen loved ones as you traverse the grounds and hear all the stories of vandalism and consecration that has taken place here.
Eighth, proceed down the road to the bridge crossing over the tracks. Park on the side of the road OUT OF THE WAY OF TRAFFIC. Head down the hill to the tracks. Look around. You will see a light with red and green lights on a lightpole. Examine the bridge, the tracks, the pole. You will find theres nothing any different than any other set of tracks.
Ninth, Document all your conversations with the people of the area, take pictures of each place you visit, note all the documents you read. Be observant while travelling the area, there are “marker stones” at certain intersections, document them as well. There are “gateway stones” seemingly in the middle of nowhere along certain roads, document these as well. Examine and photograph the barn thats mentioned and any abandoned houses you encounter including the burnt down one on Poole Road taking pictures and making notes.
Tenth, go home with all your acquired information, find some cheap hosting or free homepage and post all of your results accordingly and professionally and add your page to google. You will find that (just as the host at the bottom of this page states [The Dumb Network] you too will feel the same).
Eleventh, with all your newly acquired information and your webpage hosted, take everything you have and head to the Belvidere library once more and dig around. It WILL take you hours if not an entire day to match all relevant information to the documentation that IS PROVIDED.
Twelfth, At this point you will have all the names of everyone in the Bloods Point Cemetery (named after a Johnathan Blood who first settled there and buried his family in the cemetery) as well as everyone buried in the Flora cemetery located at the church. You will also have all the details of any occurances/activity in the area as well as how many people have been arrested for trespassing.
Thirteenth, now dont you feel real stupid at this point? I HAVE done ALL this research. There is nothing there!
The typical scenerio (as I myself have often adventured) is two boys and two or three girls driving out in the area looking for a ghost adventure. At this point you are excited, adrenalized, creeped out by the constant flow of cornfields, past mindsets from horror movies and the drone of the road and tires coupled with the WORD OF MOUTH stories you have heard and/or read.
This alone creates a pre-set mindset as you approach the area. THEN you see the cemetery and it all becomes “true”. IT IS real at this point. Now your mind is set in “ghost-hunt mode” and the slightest stick snapping (a racoon looking for food), a vehicle approaching (others like you, the groundskeeper or a cop) and all hell breaks loose. The girls scream, leap in your arms, they are clenching the boys and fearful, the boys take on a “im a man Im not scared” mindset, they look to be the hero and by the end of the night everyone has gotten their kicks.
The truth of the matter is, its all a mind-trip induced by your own ignorance to the facts. You do all of it to yourselves. PERIOD. “The only thing to fear, is fear itself”. You scare yourselves shitless and thats all there is to it, so in the end it seems like this grand adventure when all it was, was a trip to the outskirts, where the farmland takes over from the city and there resides a cemetery of old.
HOWEVER
Comment by OMFGPeople | 03.9.2008 | 12:11 am
[continued from above after HOWEVER]
I DO have an interesting story to share with all you hapless adventurers that I hope does NOT induce yet more blind adventures to nothingness, of which I will add in another post below this.
PLEASE, do yourselves a favor, and USE YOUR GODDAMN MINDS FOR ONCE! Your own thinking is the only right you have left, for fux sake, leverage it for once.
These are facts I am afraid. Leave the area alone, its just farmland. [see my post below].
Comment by OMFGPeople | 03.9.2008 | 12:15 am
{Continuance of the above post, my odd story]
I have a friend of whom I used to chill with back some 10 years ago (I am now 30 btw). Ill leave out his name but him and I used to work out in his garage til dawn building engines and working on cars and motorcycles and snowmobiles etc.
Well him and I and another sap (who is now dead due to OD of heroine) headed out to Bloods Point with two girls one night. Nothing interesting occured but the now passed person had proclaimed that he carved his initials in a tree with a knife (and I personally saw him at the tree with his knife) only to see them disappear after he finished. I looked at the tree and saw no initials or any carving, but I did see him working SOMETHING into the tree.
We actually parked INSIDE the cemetery and we were in an older Blazer. When we went to leave, the left turn signal on the dash was lit up, and remained so until we left the cemetery area. We then headed to the train bridge and drove down to it and parked by the tracks. We got out and walked along them a bit, it was very very cold (seemed far colder than it should have been), so we left and then plowed thru some cornfields (we were in a 4×4 Blazer) and that was real fun.
After that we drove around a bit and headed back and stopped at a gas station in Belvidere. We had corn husks in the brush guard of the blazer as well as all over the suspension. It was a pretty funny sight to behold, all this corn protruding from everywhere.
We headed back into town and dropped off the two girls and the now passed friend. I stayed with my friend who owned the Blazer and we went back to his place where I stayed the night. We were teens then for a reference.
I passed out not too long after but woke up and found my friend gone. I looked out the windows and noticed his garage light on (he had his own garage that we worked in). A few hours had passed and he lived approx. 40 mins from Bloods Point as a reference.
I went out to the garage and found my friends Blazer RUNNING inside the closed garage, he was in the drivers seat! I left the door open so the fumes could vent as I shut it down and pulled him from his truck and dragged him outside.
After some fresh air he coughed and weezed back from unconsciousness and went inside. I said I would close up shop and proceeded to do so. I entered the garage, closed his truck door and was about to head out when I noticed something. Wrapped around his brushguard was some fencing. After closer examination I realized, this was some sort of gate to a chainlink fence. I peeled it off and tossed it out back deep in the back of the property, tossing it out past his property line into a field.
I then headed in and crashed and forgot to mention it until some time later, when he never remembered any of the incident.
Well approx two weeks later I went out to Bloods Point again, this time with a different crew, only to find that half of the two gates on one of the entrances to the cemetery were missing! IT SEEMS my friend went back out there on his own, entered the cemetery (which the gates were open when we went there together) and got locked in, at which point he plowed through them.
I found this disturbing and to this day I do not know what really happened, but I DO know this much. He was in his garage with his vehicle running, sealed up near death with half of a chainlink fence gate wrapped around his brushguard and half of a gate was missing from ONE of the Bloods Point cemetery gates.
Thats the ONLY oddity I have EVER found out there (and I mentioned before I was into devil worship and whatnot, I used to go out there trying to summon demons from the grave to no avail (and I was highly skilled and experienced at doing so).
This was yet another case of the human mind manipulating ones self into “other-worldly” occurances. Very odd indeed.
AS A SIDE NOTE, THERES NOTHING OUT THERE TO SEE. PLEASE DO NOT bother those who (like you) are just trying to live their lives. Theres no ghosts, no lingering spirits nothing. Just the human mind and its oddities that come with being human.
Take it as you will.
IF HOWEVER you are one of the persons mentioned (and you know who you are [JH]) please contact me, as it has been a while since we have spoken. Ill post contact info for you, otherwise, please spare yourself the humility. I have no desires to argue with your schitzophrenia.
If you feel you are one of these persons please contact me at newave(at)operamail.com as I would love to hear from you again. Obviously your research into this subject has brought you here.
I hope I have clarified some things for all of you. PLEASE do the research.
I now close out this story and my posts, as I doubt I will post much more, since there is really, nothing to see.
Please, use your friggin minds for once, its all you have left for freedom so leverage it.

I love to hear peoples’ stories about interesting places like this, whether they’re true or not. After reading a few here, however, I am amazed that most of the posters think they’ll secure any sort of credibility by using the grammer and punctuation of a 3rd grader. In a moment of optimism, with hope of returning to find readable material–here are a few things morons who choose to share their stories should consider.
1) There vs. Their vs. They’re - learn it
2) You can’t say “People THAT go there,” “I have a friend THAT…” It’s WHO for fux sake.
Places WHERE
Things THAT
Times WHEN
and people WHO
3) Punctuation — 300 word sentences? You’re an idiot.
This could go on all day, but I’ll stop at three since many of you are starting from scratch. Good luck.

i have been to bloods point, My buddy and i went and we were just driving along thinking this was a waste of gas, then i thought i had seen something near the cemetery. so we turned around stopped and we both got out of the car. i didnt see any of those orbs but i heard a really loud scream and a bunch of laughing. i was so freaking scared but i thought it was someone playing a trick on us. We walked to the back of the cemetery and all of asudden i got pushed down. my buddy started laughing cause he thought i has triped and fell. i told him dude i didnt trip i felt hands on my back with full force. we got back home and my heart was still pounding like a million miles an hour. i pulled up my shirt and there were red marks on my back that were marks of hand prints. i have never been that scared in my life ok. i am 24 years old and i almost started crying i was so scared. i am going to go back out there and take some pics with my infered camera. and just some basic pics with reg cameras mabye we will see some thing.
