My friends and I just heard about this place today and plan on going real soon. Which statue cries blood?

Its a huge angel.basically the only one there and it has only babies or small children buried around her. Ive never witnessed her crying blood tho. Others have though

After reading this article I need to make clear that the group that was mentioned is not a legit Paranormal group in Alabama with known to do things that have gotten them such a bad rap..,I would like to make somethings clear about Maple Hill and Childrens Cemetery, You can not do investigations there at night! They do not allow it and if they catch you they will arrest you for tresspassing,on that note you can do an investigation with permission from Maple Hill and can only do it during the day. However being there during the day theres too much noise that takes affect on the Childrens Playground,however did get some interesting things back on the cemetery. This past weekend we were up there during the cememtery stroll and learned some much needed history of the place and the hauntings that seem to go on. I so suggest that people do their homework before going over there and doing it by law..I also suggest that people need to check for legit groups and history before going to this place.

I grew up in Huntsville and spent, probably, waaay too much time at DCP. I’ve seen orbs in pics taken on camera phones, as well as swings moving, and I’ve heard giggling. The most awesome thing about DCP is that the playground is in a big sink hole; you kind of have to walk down into it. But no matter how dark it is outside, no moon, no stars, no kind of light at all… the playground is always bright as ****. Bright enough to make out peoples expressions on their face without any kind of flashlight. Theres a trail behind DCP that goes up on top of a cliff… it’s pretty cool. But about a year ago the city took all the old playground equipment away and putt all new **** in. I’ts not scary or creepy at all anymore. The old playground equipment had all kinds of creepy **** spray painted on it… it added to the effect. Peace kids. and e-mail me if you have ?’s

Me and a group of friends went 2 years ago and we couldn’t find anyway to get into the playground. Can someone tell me how to get into it?

….I wanna check that out with my camera. Sounds interesting.

Im thinking about going anything anybody needs to tell me…like what to bring/look for

I have lived in Huntsville my entire life, been there numerous times, and never ran into anything abnormal. All bullshit.

Ok so I have live near Dead Childrens Playground all my life. I have been up there several times with different people each time not once have I ever seen anything like everyone is saying, I have heard every tale you can think of bout this place and never been able to prove that it is true. I mean it is gonna be spooky because its a playground right next to the cemetary. but theres no children or any other figures there. I believed it at one point but never saw anything and all the people i went with never saw anything either

i have been to the playground many times.i have seen alot of strange things happen there.and have many pics to prove it.i dont live far from there so i go all the time. it is quite spooky but very interesting if u know the history of the cemetary.

in nov2009 me 2friends an my 11yr old daughter went. we walked all around the graveyard befor we almost gave up an came back. but we did find it. as soon as we walked down to the swings i had to go back to the car for my camra. as i turn to walk back by myself, the guy that was with us started yelling at someone. someone or something was hiding under the slide. he came out alone. we ask what he was doing by himself at 1 am out there he said taking a walk. ok we talk for a minute more he walked on. haft 20 mintues i went on to get my camra. by the time i get it an start back there are my friends an daughter. there where worried with that man walking around. we sat down to get our breath. out of no where there is that man agin. he stoped looked to both sides of him (looking right at us but notlooking at us, like he didnt see all of us setting on the side of the road that goes through the graveyard) anyway we watched as he jogged up the little hill to the church. in the street light he just disappeared. gone we went up to the church an looked around. no one. we even drove around an couldnt see him agin. we went back to the playground an set an took pictures but nothing. all we said on the way home was how strange that was. the next day me an my daughterwas talking bout it. i ask her what she thought of the man? she said he was an angel! i ask “an angel? not a ghost?” she let me no real fast he was not a ghost. i ask if she was scared he he came out from under there, she said no. she would get alottle jumpy befor we found the playground walking through the graveyard, when the wind blew an the ballons an flags throughout the graveyard would blow with the wind she held on a little then but when we was standing there talking we the stranger she wasnt even holding my hand. so take it as you will she has been to the old bryce hospital with us an wasnt scared to go in it but when we went up to the nursing home part we walked up to the front doors to go in she pulled my hand back stoping me not wanting to go in there. she dont scare easy.
so was the stranger that night real? ghost? or just a man out for a walk at 1 am in nov.? may never no for sure i will be back

I grew up in Huntsville,but live in Chicago now, and when i was in high school we used to go up ther while skipping classes at Butler High.It was always a pretty creepy place, especially the trails and small caves surrounding the actual playground. While creepy as it was , or is, the only phenomena i ever witnessed was the icy cold temperature changes on or around the swing sets. Over all DCP is a fond memory for me, and i hope to move back to Huntsville one day and visit my old haunt.

Hmm im happy for the children but the things people see like the swings swinging by itself and stuff like that is kinda creepy but not scary at the same time for some reason lol!!! But it’s still good that they still have a place to play on.

I lived in Huntsville from 1963-1969. During that time there were several children abducted which I know for a fact as the stories were in all the newspapers and on tv. I did not know about the Dead Children’s Playground until I read about it here tonight

Now we know where Michael Jackson’s spirit went. Hehehe

I believe in ghosts. I love haunted places they are awesome.

ps.. spirts too

i have read a bout the haunted school yard, man, what happened to those children. what did thay do wrong. it is soo horible. what happened to those beautiful babies.i hope who did this bad thing is paying for it now

i live about a mile from the dead kids playground. once my sister saw old shoe prints. to me i believe in ghosts and all. but to me the dead children playground well lets just say you haft to see it to believe it.
