Real Haunted House

Bragg Rd.

Saratoga, Texas

This hotel at the end of this street was once run by a well known innkeeper. The man, however, was decapitated by an oncoming train during the latter part of the nineteenth century. Now a strange light is seen near the hotel; it is allegedly the innkeeper searching for his head.

I live in Saratoga. We go to Bragg Road all the time. Every time I go, I start at the FM 787 side because I live on that side. What you do is turn your lights off at the beginning of the road and drive slowly all the way down. Just keep your eyes open for any lights. Also, there are usually other cars driving down the road,and sometimes their headlights can be mistaken for the light. But if, as you continue towards the light, it stays in one ball and doesn’t split into two (headlights), then this is the light. All the times I’ve been and seen it, it has never gotten past the front of my car. It is never beside you, in the woods. If you see it, you will see it in the middle of the road. When you come out at FM 1293, go straight and there is a set of railroad tracks. People just play on those, you know the classic legend of the kids that will push your car off for you if it turns off? Well, there is no Saratoga story like that, but people still play on the tracks. Also, if you go all the way down, to the 1293 side, you can turn right and go down that highway until you see another dirt road, then turn down it and keep going until you come to a graveyard. Somewhere in the graveyard is the Witch’s Grave, but every time you go the headstone is moved a different way. I’ve seen the headstone a few times and every time it is moved a different way. Scary stuff. But take it from a person who has lived in Saratoga her whole life, the light is real!

Can someone tell me the name of this cemetery. Is it Felps? Any directions would be appreciated. I hear it’s on the 1293 side of the road. Is it exactly at the end? I also understand there is some small ghost town around the end of the road?

Just saw it tonight. My husband told our 4 yr. old the “Ghost Light Story” and she asked about it for days. Our neighbor Al heard her ask about it and he had never been, so we decide we might go Friday night. So, neighbor and his wife, me Eugene and Em take a road trip to the Bragg Road to see what it’s about. And we see it. At first we tried to explain it away as another car coming down the road. Never meet a car. At first it appeared as a small red light, then as a whitish-yellow and “flickering” like a flame. It always stayed the same distance away like “you could never reach it.” As we drove down the road it would disappear and reappear often, looking larger and smaller at times. Then when you are reaching the end of the road it does the very same thing, but it is now behind you! We got out of the car to get a better look and I jokingly yelled, “I have your head!” That light flickered bright three times. You will never convince me that I didn’t communicate with a ghost.

All,
When will people start believing in the world of the supernatural?
Bragg Rd is haunted by a headless ghost that manifests itself as a ghostly light. The headless one is not the only spook too terrorize people on that road, but it is the predominate manifestation.
If you go out to Bragg Road searching for spooks, be warned, you may just find what you are looking for on that dark creepy lonely road!!

My husband & I went down Bragg Rd. Saturday, October 22nd. We had both been down the road years before when we were teenagers (we now have grown kids). We saw kids partying and trying to scare those passing by. Neither of us saw the lights but did feel something incredibly strange. I was driving our Expedition with all of the windows down and the moonroof open. My husband was on the passenger side kneeling on the seat with his upper body out of the window. We turned onto the road from the Saratoga side and turned off the headlights, leaving only the parking lights. We were traveling maybe 5-10mph, so no breeze. After maybe two miles, the air temperature substantially dropped. I felt like someone was blowing air directly into my face. Also, I felt like something heavy was on me, not arms but rather like a coat or something. I didn’t feel warm by any means, just simply weighted down. My husband & I both made comments of how cold it suddenly felt. We continued down Bragg Rd until we got to the highway on the North end. We crossed the road, crossed the tracks, and went by the place that we thought the hotel had once stood (North side of tracks). The road curves sharply to the right not far past there. We decided to turn around. The air temperature warmed quite a bit when we were turning around. I can’t explain why the temperature seemed to change so much, but I know something was with us. Very freaky, indeed!
