Dead Man"s Curve
This Dead Man's Curve lies at the junction of routes 222 and 125, east of Cincinnati.
The haunting. This road's deadly reputation might have begun in October, 1969, when five teenagers were killed there by another speeding car. Since that time, it is said, the ghost of a "faceless hitchhiker" haunts the intersection. Witnesses have described it as the "pitch-black silhouette of a man."
The witness said, "I noticed a man’s shape on the side of the road. It turned like it was hitchhiking, with an arm sticking up.
The thing wore light-colored pants, a blue shirt, long hair and a blank, flat surface where the face should have been. We looked back. There was nobody there. I’ve also seen the black shadow figure, walking its slow, labored, dragging walk by the side of the road."
