Juvenile Ranch Facility

Campo, CA · Miscellaneous

This used to be the site of Camp Lockett, an old military base; it is now a home for runaways and meant to give them skills for careers. The smell of smoke accompanies the spirit of a protective old man (said to prevent children from hurting themselves). He is heard walking around and will sometimes turn off the lights. A soldier who killed himself is sometimes seen staring out of the window somewhere by the dayroom. Other sightings include former soldiers walking up and down the pathways and a child who was said to have fallen to his death from a nearby cliff. (Submitted by Chris Berglund)

    I can't believe that having used Coachella in the title that you left out C.V.High School. I retired from the local school district in 2019 after 24 years of employment. About 9 of those years working at C.V.High. I had many experiences to include having a 24 ounce cup of coffee rise up and fly 14 feet away. One principal heard a disembodied voice repeatedly. I've contributed to other publications in the past.
