Why is patterson road haunted

Posted in Texas October 11, by Katie Lawrence. During these uncertain times, please keep safety in mind and consider adding destinations to your bucket list to visit at a later date. Multiple theories exist about whose blood was shed during the wartime battle on Patterson Road.

One suggests a pro-union German settlement was attacked by Confederate troops, while another blames two disorganized militias who fought until only a few men remained. Ghostly figures appear and disappear at random when nearing the bridge. Others have reported the smell of black powder gun fire and sudden temperature drops in the area, as well.

Drivers have reported that if you stop your car on the bridge at night and turn off your headlights, you will hear what sounds like knuckles rapping against the exterior of your car, some of which are actually hard enough to be felt. Cafe, a hotel and saloon that is said to still be the home of "Old Man" Charlie Wunsche.

Clark says the cafe isn't even the area's most haunted restaurant. That dubious honor goes to Puffabelly's, which is in a restored train depot that was moved to its current site from Lovelady in Clark says the depot's paranormal activity comes from a train signal man who tripped over the tracks and was decapitated.

From her office near the building, Clark says she has experienced the sounds and sights of a ghost train. She says an area bank that was robbed twice - the bullet holes remain as proof - includes the spirits of notorious outlaws Bonnie and Clyde, who match the description of the robbers, though their involvement has never been confirmed. Northwest, the city of Tomball also has a tragic history.

In , an explosion at a mill that manufactured gunpowder and cannon powder for the Confederate army killed an unknown number of men, mostly German immigrants.

The tragedy is remembered with a historical marker near the site in Spring Creek Park. A crater created by the explosion is now a pond, and, Clark says, the spirits of several men who died in the blast remain in the area. You can also see lighted lanterns in the woods. However, my library, online, and on-site research suggested something different.

I have work in bear creek park for almost 11 years and eight of those on nights. Not once have I ever experience any type of paranormal activity out there. My question is: Were you looking for paranormal activity? Meanwhile, thanks for looking for lost ghost hunters. So it would be foolish to check out the Patterson Rd. I hard a batoon of Rebel soldiers marched through the area and camped there.

We pulled off on the side of the road with hazards and turned our cars off. The first time nothing happened when my friends car was on.

The second time with both cars off and only my friends car with hazards and I started to hear what I thought was tapping so we rolled down the windows. We realized it was not tapping but sounded like someone tapping on a drum in the distance coming from the woods.

Then a strong gust of wind came out of no where and we left. Also, what about Texans on their way to fight in the Battle of San Jacinto in ? In regards to drums in BCP at night…the Order of the Arrow part of Scouting is known to use the park to perform Scouting ceremonies for the Cubs Scouts earning their Arrow of Light badge This ceremony does include the use of Native American costumes and drums.
