Lost History Museum is located on Valle Mines School Rd. Tunnel Bill’s is on the same property several miles away from museum. You can take tours of both if you go to the museum and speak to the superintendent. Multiple ghost hunting groups have investigated these places and noone has left dissapointed. Apparitions of miners with head lamps have been seen in woods. Children singing ring around the rosy has been recorded on tape out behind museum and store. A yellow tabby cat ghost has been seen on the way to the slave cemetery. One group had one of their members get pushed on the same trail. Other people have been touched on the trail and at the cemetery. Footsteps have been heard following people on the trail itself or in woods close by. Also a lady in upstairs of museum. People have become very emotional when in second floor of museum to the point of tears. This has occured to both men and women alike. A husband of one group went to an investigation with his wife and was overcome with emotion several times that night as he kept trying to see if it was going to happen every time he went to second floor. This was the first and last time he went ghost hunting.
There was communication with a boy using an EMF meter and also a little girl. Toys set up for activity have been moved by the children on the second floor. The ghost have not always been friendly and have caused pain in the chest and abdomen of several male ghost hunters and sent a couple to their knees. Male and female alike have experienced cold spots, dizzy spells and waves of nausea. There is a male entity that is not very friendly. Footsteps, knockings, and door knob jiggling has occured. Old time music has been recorded also. Lights have been turned on in museum at night and it wasn’t by a living person. A boy in old time white gown has been seen running across field that is acrossed the street from museum and store. The superintendent has traded knocks with spirits in the store on more than one occasion. At The tunnel you can hear footsteps when noone is walking and extra footsteps when someone is walking. It has been reported that People have heard talking and screams, along with music playing. People have had the feeling that they are being watched or not wanted there. One psychic that went felt like someone had hit her in the head. Tunnel Bill is very protective of his tunnel. Mina lake is on the same property and several campers have witnessed apparitions. One family was up at around 2 am and witnessed a lady walking towards them but the problem was she was walking across the water towards them. The family left everything and jumped in their car and left. They returned the next day to gather their belongings. A ghost hunting group saw a man standing by their truck when they were at the lake investigating. The problem was he wasn’t with them and he wasn’t a living person. The man just disappeared. Around Halloween every year they have a gathering and celebration with ghost hunters sharing their findings and stories. With hay rides to the tunnel and walking tours to the cemetery. The museum is open year round and there is usually a phone number you can call if it is’nt. Very scary.

My girlfriend lives in Blackwell. I have been down there every weekend. We travel Blackwell Road every Friday and Saturday night. She lives on Cole Road, next to the train tracks. One weekend, about 3 weeks ago, the river flooded the intersection of EE and Cole Road. I have to park on the other side of the bridge, walk across the bridge and walk the train tracks about a mile and a half to her house. What better opportunity for ghosts and goblins to make their appearance. I didn’t hear any screams, feel any chills, see any orbs, or any bodies, fires, or ghost cars. Never have seen or heard anything like the the whole time I have been spending my weekends there. All just a bunch of stories and made up hype.

Me and a couple friends went up there not too long ago and we parked on the bridge and flashed our lights 3 times and yelled out the window come get me 3 times and we waited for 3 min and the water started gettin louder and we got freaked so we left the 4th min and right before we got to the train tracks a train flew right infront of us and idk if those train tracks are used anymore or what but when we went across the tracks it was stopped and we went across and on the other side of the tracks theres a dead end we pulled in there and backed out as soon as we did a white truck with no symbols or anything on it came around the curve doin atleast 80 mph and we took off and when we crossed the tracks again the train was backing. The truck chased us all the way out to E hwy… If somebody could tell me if the train tracks on the other side of the bridge are still used my email is t_jjj23@hotmail.com Thanks!

me and three friends went there and we parked on the bridge did all that and had some freaky experiences that night. If somebody could please tell me if the train tracks on the other side of the bridge if your coming from E hwy are still used ide appreciate it. My Email is t_jjj23@hotmail.com Thanks!!!

Not to burst anyones bubble, but that bridge Tram bridge out in Blackwell, has been destroyed for sometime now two years i believe a new bridge was in it place, If you guys want a real scare. Park out at the west end of the bridge and walk south to were it used to be, you’ll get a real chill out of it………..
