Satan's tunnel

While we were out Urban Exploring in Lincoln County, MO., we passed by this tunnel.

According to the locals, it is very haunted. Lots of stories abound as to why this is. Of course, we saw nothing abnormal, though the tunnel did echo quite a bit when I walked through it to the other side to snap some pictures of it. I’ve only got a few because it wasn’t especially impressive from a photography stantpoint. We considered driving through it, but the standing and frozen water on the bottom was fairly deep in some places, and we had already gotten stuck once that day. Plus, it’s private property.

Unfortunately, the tunnel was heavily tagged. The nearest house had several baby dolls hanging by their necks from trees. I wonder if they were trying to scare people away.

The Missouri Paranormal Society investigated this tunnel and according to them, most of the haunted tunnel stories were made up by a neighbor who lived nearby, hoping the stories would scare away the locals who tried to visit. Obviously, it has only served to attract attention.

Do you know any places near St. Louis worthy of my camera’s attention? Please let me know, my friends and I are always up for adventure.
