Some places you would like to visit that have been a site for an Unsolved Mystery

[jy1977]

My Selection:

East Millinocket, Maine - Place where Joyce McLain was murdered. I would like to visit Maine is General. I did thought the episode on her murder protrayed Millinocket as kind of creepy like out the setting of the movie "Halloween". It looked like it was in the fall. It was especially creepy when the guy found Joyce's Body. The setting was very erie. Nevertheless, it would interesting to see the town in the summer.

Agawam, Massachusetts - I would like to see Lisa Ziegert's memorial.

Saxonburg, Pennsylvania- I would like to see Greg Adam's memorail.

Your Selections....

Bad Route rest stop.

1. Sadly so much time has passed by in a lot of these cases that some of these sites are unrecognizable.

2. Technically you could always visit a UM site. Odds are there at least 4 cases that are within driving distance. I personally could visit 7 sites right now.

3. Come to think of it, I have visited 6 UM locations and didn;t even know it at the time

1. Roswell
2. Son of Sam murders (I have walked the streets where every single shooting occured)
3. The Senseless Shooting in Connecticut(drove down that same spot three times)
4. I actually think I may have purchased something from Su-Ya Kim way back in my youth!!!! I vaguely remember purchasing something from that store.
5. I, of course, have seen every single murder scene in the Zodiac Case.
6. I have been several times at the Moxley murder spot and witnessed the commotion at the trial.

I visited Dutra's Market in North Truro, MA - site of one of the alien abduction episodes. It looks pretty much the same except the parking area isn't as open and there are more trees. You can also see an outline of where the payphone used to be. I went inside and bought a few things. Quaint little place.

I'd still like to visit the Dennis Depue school in Coldwater, MI.

That would be downright creepy because that old school building is out in the middle of nowhere. I would be looking behind my back expecting Dennis DePue to be standing there! (Even thought it's impossible)

Someone posted pictures of the schoolhouse on here earlier this year.

I used to drive by the parking garage where Jon Grundhofer was kidnapped almost every day. It's right off of 5th and 3rd in downtown Minneapolis - now on the light rail line.

I have family near Lawton, OK, and I've thought about maybe trying to find the bridge where Aeileen Conway crashed.

I would also like to see the two memorials you mentioned here. Some other sites i would like to see, the bridal shop in wichita which was one of the interstate 70 killer's spots,(and when my in laws lived in Wichita, we actually tried to find it but couldn't). I would also like to see the school where Dennis Depue buried his wife, and, I cannot help it, the cemetery where "resurrection mary" kept appearing to people.

If you go on the forbidden sight, you can see many locations right on your own computer. I typed East Millinocket into the search engine and got to see some of the area through a video someone shot while driving around.

The same for Clinton, Missouri where Anglea Hammond was abducted. Someone drove through the town holding a video camera and I saw many of the buildings featured in the segment.

I went to the schoolhouse this past Summer and took some pictures. You can see them in this old thread...

The place still looks creepy.

Thanks for the link, it still does look creepy!!!

It really is. Robert Stack wasn't kidding in the segment when he said this was a lonely country road. Although, the school house is only several miles outside the city of Coldwater. Here are a few more pictures I took that day...

While I was driving down Snow Praire Road, I noticed this building and knew right away I was getting close. This old shack was the first thing shown in the segment that Ray and Marie Thornton drove by...





Because of the tree growth and all the leaves, I didn't notice the school house until I was right in front of it. Here are a few other pics I took....

Of course, Resurrection Cemetary and the site of the Girdon Light....but not w/o 6,000 people with me ; the bridge where Dan Short was thrown off to pay my respects. Something about that case and the way he died haunts me.

I remember posting on here about 5 years ago how I grew up a block from where the Night Stalker shot his only Orange County resident. Nearly 20 years to the day I (inadvertently) ended up on that exact street as part of a canvassing crew. I ended up posting a flyer on the exact house where the attack happened. MAJOR shivers up the spine.

Wow, that first picture of the church that's blue on the side is downright creepy. Did you walk over to the fence behind the school where they found the "hole"?

[soilentgreen]

I've been to Resurrection Cemetery (I have relatives buried there) in Chicago, as well as Frenier Beach/Landing (Thomas Hotard/Audrey Moate) near LaPlace, LA. 'Beach' isn't a very accurate description; it's mostly swampland and an illegal dump site.

Places I'd like to see:

Big Moose Lake and the resort (where Grace Brown was killed)
Signal Mountain, TN (ATV murders)
Gettysburg
St. James Hotel (Cimarron, NM)
Bad Route Rest Area (Dexter Stefonek) -- but not in the dead of winter

I wanted to. I really did. I could have easily climbed over the fence, walked behind the school and tried to find the approximate area of where the hole was. But I didn't. With all the overgrown weeds, it would have been a pain. Plus, I was starting to feel a little creeped out being there. So, I took my pictures and left.

Luckily, the weather was gorgeous that day and it was bright and sunny. It would have felt extra creepy if it were dark and cloudy like on the UM segment.
