A Florida Highway Is One Of The Most Haunted Roads In America
October is here and if you’re intrigued by all things spooky, a Florida highway is one of the most haunted roads in America.
Here in Southwest Florida we love our road trips. Whether it’s taking a day trip to the east coast to Miami or north to Tampa. Or maybe a little further away to Orlando, The Keys or St. Augustine. But have you ever had anything bizarre happen when you’re driving? I’m not talking about the regular Florida man stuff you may see on the road, but something more spooky.
A Florida Highway Is One Of The Most Haunted Roads In America
RV Trader put together a collection of the most haunted roads in America and one Florida highway made the list. If you’ve driven to theme parks in Orlando, I-4 is a road you’re familiar with. Most of us know I-4 as a ‘parking lot’ due to the high volume of traffic. According to RV Trader, the highway sits atop the remains of Saint Joseph’s Colony. It was a town where Swedish immigrants residing there died of yellow fever 100 years ago. The south end of the I-4 bridge spans over the graves of those who died, and that stretch of road is now known as “The Dead Zone.” People who have driven in that area have reported a loss of cell phone service and even mysterious orbs of light that come out of nowhere.
Other roads that have made their list of the most haunted in America include River Street in Savannah, Mona Lisa Drive in New Orleans, Essex Street in Salem and Archer Avenue in Chicago just to name a few. Check out the full list here
