Haunted Roads: Harrison Avenur's Dead Mans Curve



In Cincinnati along Harrison Avenue there is a sharp turn given the name, Dead Mans Curve, due to all the fatalities. The legend is that a phantom hitchhiker walks the roadside, instilling drivers with a sense of fear and panic. While many never see the phantoms face, those that have say he is burned to the bone, with flesh hanging from his decaying face.  They say that the hitchhiker is the ghost of a molasses truck driver from 1953 who failed to make the final curve. The driver bowled over a pole and went through an entire block before ending in the kitchen of a first floor apartment. While the driver was still alive, the propane tank that heated the molasses exploded and he burned to death. Could this phantom hitchhiker be the ghost of the truck driver? Or is he just a figment of peoples overactive imaginations.

Chevrolets to D-I-E for.

While many people don't associate horror movies with cars, these spook-tacular Chevy's prove that even vehicles can give you nightmares.

Jeepers, creepers....where'd ya get them peepers
Jeepers, creepers...where'd ya get those eyes
Gosh oh, git up....how'd they get so lit up
Gosh oh, gee oh....how'd they get that size 






1. Halloween if filled with tricks and treats, but this movie definitely wont give you something good to eat. Featuring a menacing Chevy CEO, this film may give you nightmares all the way to the garage. Don't worry though, your eyes will most likely remain in your head and attached to your brain, as long as the creeper doesn't get a hankering for flesh.

2. Worried your wild side may take over this Halloween? Let loose, but be sure you don't let the fun go to your head..you wouldn't want to end up the latest victim to a psychopathic stunt man's  "death-proof" 1971 Chevy Nova stunt car. While he may stage his victims murders with his cars, this Halloween it is safe to say you may want to avoid getting into cars with strangers.
