Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

Some railroad tracks on the south side of town (the sticks)

San Antonio, Texas

While on the way home, a bus full of first and second graders broke down while driving across these railroad tracks. Rather than going to look for help, the driver told the children to get off the bus and push it across the tracks; they were struck down by a train. Now it is said that if one drives to the site and puts the car in neutral, it will be pushed over the tracks. Allegedly if one spreads baby powder on the back of the car before going to the site, he will see fingerprints when he leaves.

I have heard the story before but I heard it a different way. The way I heard it was that the bus stopped on the tracks and it wouldnt start also and the kids, teacher and bus driver push the car over the tracks and the names on the street signs in that area are the names of the kids who died.

i personally have been there and it is a weaird thing you put ure car in neutral and it would roal up the hill and over. i have also tried the baby powder and there were finger prints on the back of the crown victoria we were in, but it is said the finger prints are your own from the oils on ure hand. i dunno what happens but it seems to get more attention by the people of sanantonio every year.

wouldn’t the powder blow off the back of the car,if it is put on B4 going to the site? Wouldn’t you sprinkle it when you got to the site?

Well I was born and raised in San Antonio and that never happened! There is no “BUS CRASH” and there never was a bus crash. Texas archives have no record of that at all! And the names on the streets are the names of the kids (and some just random names) of the man that paid for renovating that part of historic San Antonios’ Missions.However, that railroad is “SOMETHING” maybe haunted by kids from that time of the missions but not because of a Railroad Accident!! Sorry Guys!

Well I lived in Texas and I know it to be true. My mother and I went to that road. Before we got close to it we placed baby powder on the bumper and we placed the car in neutral. (We made sure no one was behind us.) A few mintues later the car started to move. We got all the way across the trackes. We then stopped. My mother and I got out of the car and saw these tiny hands prints on the bumper and no one was around us.

yea i’ve heard this story so different all i know is that the street signs r named after them.I live in San Antonio me and a couple my cousins went we put r car in neutral and like 10 secs. it started moving and it went over the tracks and we all got out and saw little handprints so we got back in did it again this time we all got scared we but r car in neutral and we started moving again right when we were on the tracks we stoped and we were all scared and then 30 secs we started moving again. so it was fun but when the acciedent happend it was around the 1930’s or 1940’s my aunt said that it could of happend and they lost the record of it. but all I know it is true And this halloween i’m going again .

I don’t think that it’s true but I think that perception is reality. In your mind if you believe in something enough it’s going to happen. So by people believeing in all of this I think it’s true to them. Try going to an old plantation where there we slaves and slaves that had been killed I believe that their will be some voices.

I know this is true because I was born and raised in San Antonio, and my parents told me how hapenned. It said to be that the bus that the kids were in they were crossing the railroads tracks, when the bus suddenly stop then the train crash into them. It said if you but the car in neutral the car moves up and down the railroads tracks, and in halloween at night you can see the train passing you just seee the light of the train.

i have been there. it was really interesting, i plan to go again because i was about 6 when me and my family went. we did the whole powder on the back of the car and once the ghosts pushed us over there were little kid hand prints on the back. i dont believe the prints come from oils in your skin… we just washed the car and no one touched the back. if you like finding creepy haunted places, go to the tracks.

I have been there, did the baby powder thing and all that jazz. I don’t think that it’s true about the bus accident but I do know that some paranormal energy was pushing us over those tracks. I also heard that the streets were named after the children of some big money guy in San Antonio. A developer, possibly.

I came to this forum because I thought it interesting but now I’m just saddened by everyone’s poor grammar. There has been such a decline in our ability to communicate. Please don’t get me wrong, I’m not speaking about everyone.

This is beside the point and I’m sure many will hate me. I do what I can.
