Shinytalecherryblossom - The Creepy, Paranormal & Unexplained

The Pit | 1981

The killing of Elsie Frost is one of the UK’s most violent unsolved murders. On Saturday 9 October 1965, Elsie, 14, set off home on the outskirts of Wakefield from a nearby youth club sailing event. Dressed in a bright red anorak, yellow cardigan and floral skirt, Elsie walked along the canal towpath – so she didn’t get her new leather shoes muddy. But she never made it home.

As she walked through a 30ft tunnel beneath a railway embankment she was attacked. Struck from behind and stabbed – twice in the back, twice in the head and once through the hand. One of the blows pierced her heart. Fatally injured Elsie stumbled through the tunnel to the bottom of a steep flight of stone steps – known as the ABC steps as there are 26 – that led up to the main road.

That’s where she was found, dying by a local dog-walker. Others soon appeared on the scene. An ambulance was called, but Elsie was dead by the time they arrived. The hunt for the killer was national news. Elsie was intelligent, bookish, close to her family – police couldn’t establish any motive.

Officers went door-to-door, interviewed 12,000 men and teenage boys – but her killer was never found. Decades past, her parents, Arthur and Edith, died without seeing justice for their daughter. The case is still one of the UK’s most violent unsolved murders, and Elsie’s family continue to push for justice. Still, over half a century on, the killer, murder weapon and motive remain unknown.

The Borley Rectory Haunting

Borley Rectory was a house that gained infamy as “the most haunted house in England”. It had been alleged to be haunted ever since it was built in 1862. These reports multiplied suddenly in 1929, after the Daily Mirror published an account of a visit by paranormal researcher Harry Price, who wrote two books supporting claims of paranormal activity.

One of the most interesting manifestations of the haunting were the writing on the wall. It is believed the writings had come from a young deceased catholic woman who wanted her body to be discovered and receive a proper christian burial ceremony. she was trying to communicate with Marianne, wife of the reverend Lionel Foyster, the couple living in the rectory in October 1930. 

The scribbled writing is allegedly from the ghost while the writing below is from Marianne’s attempt to communicate with it.

What I can read: -Marianne light mass prayers -Marianne please help get -

The house burned down in 1939 and was later demolished in 1944. LIFE photographer David Scherman was on hand to cover the event. While covering the demolition of England’s most haunted house, Scherman photographed a brick that rose from the ruins and floated in the air for several seconds.

The Cecil Hotel in downtown Los Angeles is notorious for its dark and haunted history: serial killer Richard Ramirez (The Night Stalker) and “Black Dahlia” murder victim Elizabeth Short had both stayed there, and the building has played host to numerous gruesome deaths – the most recent of which involved the body of a missing student discovered in a rooftop water tank after hotel guests reported foul-smelling black water coming from their taps.

Now it seems a new ghostly guest has signed in at the Cecil, as reported by L.A. affiliate KABC: this week their website revealed the photo, taken by Riverside resident Koston Alderete, which seems to depict a spectral figure outside a window on the building’s fourth floor.

“When I looked at that window, it just looked kind of creepy to me,” Alderete told KABC, “and then I showed my friend, and he kind of freaked out.” He also claims to have suffered nightmares after taking the photo.

Dead Children’s Playground

Located in Huntsville Alabama, this haunted playground is situated behind Maple Hill Cemetery (the state’s largest and oldest cemetery).It is set in a low spot and surrounded by rocks and trees on three sides, making it all the more claustrophobic.

The playground has accumulated a deep catalogue of supernatural associations. Locals have claimed to hear children laughing/screaming in the middle of the night. They have seen swings move on their own and ghostly orbs floating around at night.

Legend says that during the 1960s, the area around Huntsville was gripped by a terrible rash of child abductions that devastated the city. Unfortunately, many of the children didn’t survive the clutches of their captors, and their bodies were discovered around the area where the macabre playground now sits.

Bobby Mackey’s Music World is a haunted nightclub found in Wilder Kentucky. In 1850 Bobby Mackey’s Music World was once a slaughterhouse and once it closed in the 1890′s people believe a cult started meeting there. In 1896 a girl’s headless corpse who was later identified as Pearl Bryan was discovered in a field 2 miles from the former slaughterhouse. Pearl was pregnant and her boyfriend Scott Jackson and his friend Alonzo Walling attempted to give her an abortion however something went wrong so they dumped her body in a field and decapitated her. Eventually the two were caught due to them leaving the shoes on the body which made her identifiable to the authorities; the two were sentenced to death and Alonzo Walling right before his death said that he would haunt the area forever. In the 1950′s a girl named Johanna fell in love with a singer named Robert Randall; eventually Johanna got pregnant and wanted to run away with him however her father forbade and had the singer killed; Johanna was so upset she poisoned her father then killed herself in the basement and she is said to haunt the building to this day with the smell of her rose scented perfume and Bobby Mackey even wrote a song about her called “Johanna”. Bobby Mackey eventually bought the building in 1978. People believe that the nightclub has a portal to hell in its basement. The headless ghost of Pearl Bryan and Alonzo Walling are also said to haunt the nightclub. Possessions and exorcisms have taken place there and one night the club’s manager was closing for the night and the jukebox started playing the Anniversary Waltz even though it was unplugged and did not have the song listed. Ghost Adventures did an investigation here.
