In 1986, two airplanes collided, one of which crashed into a neighborhood killing 82 altogether. At night and early in the morning, apparitions can be seen walking around and there’s an overall eerie feeling as if you aren’t alone.

I use to live on Holmes avenue as a child. The house was haunted for sure. The kitchen cabinets would open and plates would fly out. My parents room had drapes that would move with the windows closed.
I live nearby and I do believe it MAY be haunted. I mean, close to one hundred people died unexpectedly and in a terrible manner. People died on the planes and in their homes when the planes came crashing down. Just my opinion.
I live just 9 minutes away by walking. I first heard about the crash in high school and parts of the plane had landed in my elementary school. I’ve never noticed any haunting or unusual events.
I live very close to this site. I was 11 when it happened, and remember that day very well. I was in my room and the windows started rattling very loud. I thought it was an earthquake. I do believe it is haunted. I get an eerie feeling whenever I’m near it. I thought since I know what happened, I would bring some people, who didn’t know. They both had paranormal experiences there.
