HAUNTED LOCATIONS
Dallas/Ft Worth Metroplex

Mineral Wells - Baker Hotel - A young man and his friend were fraternizing with the laundry women in the basement or what used to be the laundry rooms. His boss was going to check on them so the first man jumped into the elevator the second man however was caught in between the closing door and died. It is said if you go by the elevators at night you can see him. Another legend is that a mistress was so distraught that she could not have her lover killed herself in the Baker. You can smell her perfume of lavender at night in the hall where she killed herself.  Another lady jumped out of the bell tower to her death.  Numerous orbs have been seen in pictures along with amazing ecto photos and sounds, apparitions and smells. This place
is FULL of ghost.  Many ghost hunter reports have this listed as one of the most haunted places in the state.

Grand Prairie - Palace of Wax and Ripley's believe it or not. - Believed to be haunted by victims of a fire. Strange presence felt, electrical malfunctions that could not be explained, strange noises Like Bells & someone screaming, the motion detectors would go off and there wouldn't be any one in the building but a few staff members. I have visted and felt alot
of strange stuff here.  This entire place seems haunted to me.  The "tornado" room is a key place.

Arlington- Chuck E. Cheese
When it was a grocery store, a manager supposedly took his life there. "Floyd" plays with radio stations and rolls balls down the stairs. So, any ball might roll down the stairs? Would a football roll end-over-end on its own?

Arlington - Flagship Inn Resort
Reportedly haunted by the ghost of a disgruntled security guard. After being fired, he set a ballroom on fire, then died in the ensuing blaze. The fire also killed several homeless people who had taken shelter in the building, so perhaps they are there, as well.

Arlington-Six Flags Over Texas
In the Texas section next to the entrance of the "Texas Giant" is a yellow candy store. It is the oldest building in the park. It was said that in the early 1900's a young girl (8 or so) drowned in Johnsons Creek. She supposedly can be seen walking the railroad tracks or in her room in the yellow house turning the light on and off or opening the curtain and then closing it. Security guards at night also have problems locking the upstairs door because "ANNIE" feels playful.

Arlington - Fast Freddy's Pool Hall
Strange noises after hours have been attributed to Utley J. Puckett, a patron and pool player.  I have been there many time,
BUT never heard nor seen anything.

Arlington - River Legacy Park
There is a park in Arlington, Texas called River Legacy Park which definitely lives up to its name.

Screaming Bridge:
One night after a high school football game a carload of kids were driving fast on a country road just outside of the park. Coming to a narrow bridge over the Trinity River they met their fate when they did not see another car coming hitting it head on. Both cars erupted into flames and plummeted into the river below. All involved were killed and since then the road has been closed and can only be walked to through the park. Legend has it that if you find the bridge you will see the dates of the occurrence and the names of the deceased glowing as tombstones in the water and if after that you still dare you can sit
in the middle of the bridge on the night that it happened and at midnight you will witness a heavy fog coming up from the river as you see headlights approaching from either side of the bridge.

The Hobo:
Near the park are some railroad tracks that run through an area called Mosier Valley so the park is a good getting off place for the train hoppers since the train has to slow down here. One night an old hobo was staying in the park and was awoken by the sounds of screams. Wondering to the edge of the woods from where he had been sleeping he saw a car parked and what appeared to be a man and a woman fighting. Walking closer he saw the man hitting the woman and the woman knocked
unconscious. Opening the door he grabbed the man but in the struggle that ensued was shot. The next day the woman was found wondering through the park delirious and half naked but the hobo laid dead next to where the car had been. However, lovers parked late at night still catch a glimpse of the old hobo. Legend has it that late at night if you are still in the park after closing you will hear a tap on your window and there will be an old man standing there in rags.

Hells Gate:
It is a long trail with swamps on either side and shaded over by large trees. At the end of the trail is a large mound of dirt and two fence posts that were once a gate. As it is said this was the trail walked by captured spies of the union army on there way to be hung. This gate was the last thing they saw before being led to the tree that stands beyond the gate where they died. Walking the trail one can still hear the sobs and whispered prayers of the men and some women who walked there last steps here.

Garland - Lakeview High School - Ever since it was opened in the 1970's, it was always consider the "bad" school. Over the years it was given the name of "Suicide High". It was given this name because sometime in the late 70's a boy shot himself in the bathroom. Later on in the 80's a girl broke the mirror and slit her throat, a two girls found her. To this day there's still no mirrors in the girls bathrooms. Later, only one girls and boy killed themselves in the school. Many students that attended Lakeview in the mid 90's committed suicide. In the bathrooms, sometimes you can hear footsteps when nobody else is in there. There's no windows in the school, that's what some students feel that make rooms so cold. There are cold spots in some places, and you can hear voices too.
