Church Hill Tunnel and Richmond Vampire

In richmond vampire virginia there's a tunnel that is name Church hill tunnel and a urban legend of a vampire hiding inside of church hill tunnel. Check this video out too.

The track is on an old chesapeake and ohi railroad, the construction of the tunnel started in 1873 in order to extend the tracks to the old virginia central railroad that is located in the shockoe valley Richmond and connect to peninsula subdivision, virginia peninsula is to reach collis potter huntington's new coal pier in newsport news and is about 75 miles from virginia peninsula. 

However there was construction problems with the tunnel richmond's blue marl clay shrink-sweet soil changed from he rainfall and cause a deadly cave-ins due to the groundwater seepage cause this idea to be abandoned in 1925, for a safer alternative to utitlze the new water level for ship coal to the newsport news and avoid the troublesome tunnel. 

As construction carried on with the line connecting to south of the new main street station likely with incoming traffic to come off the old virginia center and entering the virginia peninsula subdivision without using the church hill tunnel. Following the completion of the viaduct in 1901 the church hill tunnel fall into disuse efforts to restore when underway, on october 2 a works train was there before getting trapped by a collapse of 150 feet at the west end, ovr 200 workmen had to crawl their way through the flat cars and escaping the east end of the tunnel however fireman benjamin f. mosby died when reaching the grace hospital after suffering burns from the ruptured boiler, engineer thomas joseph morgan was killed, reports said six black laborers were unaccounted, there were numbers of men that was scaled down to two. Richard Lewis and H. Smith were identified as day laborers, the following week the community would watch anxiously as rescue efforts resume and progress was made as further cave-ins and the body of mason was recovered on October 10 despite holding Lewis and Smith were hold unaccounted their bodies were never found. The SCC regulated the state's railroads and ordered the western tunnel to be sealed and left inside of it was the train and ten flat cars. The authorities shut down the line and area for several days while no homes were in the area and what's closer to the tunnel across the church hill the west end remind covered with a concrete plug the east end was used as part of turning wye with connection to southern railway's line to west point is offended entered by venturesome trespassers. These details would be made by Richmond Times-Dispatch reporter Mark Holmberg in 1998 and believed that most portion of the west was not caved in is filled water. Eight years later in June 2006 the Virginia Historical Society and other parties announced plans to recover the train and bodies plus efforts to preserved, the locomotive yet history channel expressed interest of the project but unfortunately when drilling a hole into the tunnel's seal a camera was placed and discovered the tunnel is filled with water and could cause an excavation of the tunnel will collpase, and several homes to get eugulfed of massive sinkholes and the project was on hold.

However at the north of the intersection of E. Franklin Street and N. 31ST Street the western entrance can be seen at the southeast end of 18th street just at the alley off and north of marshall a virginia historical marker was placed at the site in 2012 the floor and area outside is swampy which currently is to this very day, and the end of the tunnel is open with distance. While the tunnel is now sealed but it does have folklore and urban legend, richmond vampire was circulating in 1960s and told of 1800s when the supposedly pool run out of england at that time, later in 1976 student newspaper commonwealth times first published the story. Gregory Maitland urban legend and folklore researcher at the Night shift and the Virginia Ghosts and Haunting Research Society describled a creature was founded by rescue teams with jagged teeth and skin hanging from it's muscular body crouching over their victims and escaped and raced toward the james river and the group of men chased it but before the creature reach the hollywood cemetary and disappeared to the mansoleum bearing the name W.W. Pool. Back with Gregory's story, when the tunnel collapsed in 1925, 28 year old railroad fireman Benjamin F. Mosby was shoveling coal to the firebox of a steam locomotive he had no shirt on when entering the cave which cause the boiler to ruptured and Mosby's body scalded and seven teeth were broken off and trying to reach his way to the tunnel, witness said that they were shocked of his body and hanging from his body, just like what happened as said before he died at Grace Hospital and later buried at Hollywood Cemetery. 

UB 65

In the days of World war 1 comes the german empire had an empire and a naval service but in them was unlucky a naval submarine, ub 65. I Saw this video from Bedtime Stories i would recommend checking it out, it talks about how a german u-boat haunted by supernatural occurs and after being built at AG Vulcan Stettin Hamburg. But this is where the story of how it all happen. 

Two workers were to have been victims of being crushed of a metal pipe and one died when it arrive at the hospital. 

It didn't end there the crew of the submarine been a victim of it, during the boat rides one of the crew would jump overboard but nonetheless, the captain continue the mission but tired to surface the vessel rise but didn't nearly causing for the crew to almost death and suffocation the batteries was almost caught by the sea waters and a deadly fumes. 

A member of the crew was seen the submarine deck that was dress in grey was the deceased Lieutenaut Richter but vanished and the captain berated the sailor however the vessel's crew would hear the rumors. 

While in the english sea before UB-65 was to return to sea, a second officer was killed from the explosion of the ship which was with terrified screams and the captain of the tower saw it before vanishing, the ship gain attention and developed a reputation of being haunted no one want to on board this didn't stop the german authorities as they want the stories of the vessel to stop and send in another captain to investigated and take command. But he would be convinced and believe the crew were telling the truth and suggsted to take the ship out of service that's not the end of it. When a lutheran pastor to exorcise the vessel and return to sea and free from ghostly and haunted acts. 

Stories of the submarine coming face to face to a sea monster which didn't happen but rather a myth. And the creature possessed red eyes rather a giant snake. In may 1918 the ship was crusising off the coast of spain an officer reported seeing a unknown person enter the torpedo room when trying to see who it was before it vanished and no one was there but it caused the torpedo gunner gone insane and saw a ghost spirit and decided to overboard and drowned. It would meet it's end in July 2018 an American Destroyer Sighted the haunted vessel but it was abandoned and drifting in the sea as they watched and there was a ghostly figure on bow of the ship and without a warning and not sure if it had a crew it exploded and sank below and a dead submariner would appeared one last time as it sank. 

The wreck of the ship is at Padstow Cornwall. This story was not something that i have written before but worth checking out and seeing the video that i stated before. 

Lost in the woods

Driving alone in the woods can be a scary thing to do you drive there and expect with fog around before someone there is standing in the way and not to killed them and maybe someone kills you. But i thought of a story when i was watching a episode from Thomas and Friends Season 5 Haunted Henry that i rememeber as a kid, i couldn't get my mind off how cool the episode was with the usual of fogs that was used in the episode and spooky elements like old trees and night time setting. When i was out alone by driving back i get the unusual feeling of being followed or someone watching me, which brings me to this story of being lost in the woods. Everyone knows of how's it like, suddenly a killer pop out and does the thing to kill the person and leaving their car there or their body hidden where they'll never find it. 

Not just that but it's dark and creepy with no way to find shelter and seeked something to make a fire or have food or make a signal contact for help is a scary thing where you can't find a way to call for help unless you have emergency access. But can be very scary too. Yet you may come across old places and houses that were left abandoned whatever is left inside of the building is uncertain. However in the woods you might come across animals like coyetes bears and wolves whatever animals you come across. 

his one was pretty tricking to do. 

A Visit to an asylum

*This story is fiction* 

It was a lonely night but there ahead an outcast facility where there's an asylum that people had lost their minds and seek psychological help and would hear the laughs and screams and people unstable, but not everyone goes there for a visit with their love ones some might think like that where as a hooded figure cover in black but has a blue hooded on it with a black cape with it, instead a child walking there not a patient instead going there in the middle of the dark night acting as a dark knight there, he heads inside and enter the doorways. 

He's in the hallways as he makes his way to the patients only to the holding cells where they keep the patients he can only walk around not move his head to turn and look as the patients look at him and yell while he's not making any eye contact with him, he would leave the hallway and headed to the section that is remotely isolated and encounter his former lover who he use to like but would fall down to a dark path and Felt betrayed by her despite their age differences, they would talk and the hooded figure want to release his anger at her for betraying her and using him as a tool while in school, but reminds control of his anger and his lover however still insane and she would express her frustrations and anger at him and try to fixed everything between them but never have, and admit of being paranoid insane and isolated as she goes on and on the boy reminds calm not interrupting her not a single word and listen her. Feeling like it's been an hour or two he decided to leave only to leave a message that "may try to fixed yourself but it would fixed our relationship that we once had even though we had or sort of a chemistry despite our age difference between born 3-5 years but i thought you were my lover" he would leave the asylum and feeling like he doesn't want to see her again as he exits through the gates and walks in the streets while it rained. He doesn't need to see her again or does he plan to do so, but in his lover's mind she would imagine if he was in her imagination and perhaps when the light flicker before he would vanished into thin air. 

Nightmare before Christmas an Halloween movie or Christmas movie

The nightmare before Christmas i often describled as a Halloween movie or an Christmas movie but personally i find it to be both or whatever that some people describle it as to be. 

It's a Tim Burton movie which it's a stop motion movie so what can you expected from his dark goth film that he does like with Batman (1989) and Batman Returns even his other films anyways. The film does have some halloween themes like it's colors in the film and the scenes of the movie is often feel like Halloween only set in Christmas well it came out in October 13 1993 for a limited release and later on the 29, 1993. Depending on how it's like i thnk it's scenes that makes it feel like a Halloween and Christmas. The opening of the movie This is Halloween song. What's this it's a christmas song Where jack enters a town and sees snow and christmas lights.

As the movie continue on and on, than when came to the ending and Jack as Santa Claus but re-deliver some presents to make things right with Santa Claus, the town makes toys for Christmas and Jack while as Santa and starts to ruin christmas. 

I Find the stop motion style to be cool and i do like Jack's design. But the opening had incredible visuals the scene with the bed where the monster is hiding with teeths give me some chills. There are scenes that feel like either Halloween or Christmas i don't have much to say but i find it an Dark Christmas movie in Halloween Season i can watch in October or December.  

Dark

*Note this is just fiction* 

In the lonely streets of a neighborhood walking alone not realizing of what's happening around as you walk in the middle of the night and you would hear someone follow you, as you are doing so suddenly you think to turn back and see no one and continue onwards before trying to reach home. 

But elsewhere not away from the person walking away the watcher who sees the person down below making sure she's walking home safety and not attack from any muggers and someone carrying a knife to hurt her. 

The hooded figure covered in black while behind him is the moon as he is on top of a building. No one knows who he is some say it's not a man maybe a child somehow no one never ask perhaps none of the people around don't know of the dark hooded figure one day they will discover him. 

Tales of the hooded figure is that he once saved a child from certrain death and punch down some muggers in a dark alleyway saving a elder couple prevent a burgler of stealing jewelry and money. Once his actions were known across the neighborhood they think it's a ghost or a unknown figure maybe a victim of a tragic accident. They try to find the dark hooded figure in the neighborhood but some say he's in a building or train station alone no one never see his face as he always covers his face. 

Years go by and the figure alone gone, try to wonder who he was no one knows
