Across the world, there are dozens of sites where people have chosen to end their own lives. Many would conclude these sites must be haunted...either by human spirits, unwilling or unable to crossover or by inhuman spirits who helped lure them to their demise.

In Pasadena, California, one such bridge - the Colorado Street Bridge - has been known as Suicide Bridge almost since its construction. Built in 1912, the 1,486 foot long bridge is 150 feet at its highest point. It has a history of death beginning prior to it being built with the allegation that a construction worker fell to hi…

Alton, Illinois is what you would call a true river town. Its waters are the Mississippi, the Illinois and the Missouri. Alton was born in 1818 after Rufus Easton established it as a river town and gave it his son’s name. Alton is known for Limestone bluffs and historic homes. At one time confederate prisoners of war were kept behind bars in the Alton Military Prison during the Civil War.

So, who haunts the home…

The highly contagious and deadly viral disease once contracted either killed the victim or left them with significant scarring - especially on the face, arms, and legs. 
Before the late 1800s, many cities built hospitals specifically for treating smallpox sufferers. In New York City, on the southern tip of Blackwell’s Island (now Roosevelt Island), one such hospital opened on December 18, 1856, to keep infected patients isolated far away from the population.  James Renwick Jr. designed the smallpox hospital. Better known for Grace Church on Broadway, St. Patrick’s Cathedral on Madison Avenue and the Smithsonian I…
