The Road to Hell, 1782
Winter Hike in the Hocking Hills is coming on January 20, 2024. (Find more info here: The Hocking Hills) Those hiking the trail during the event may come upon some spirits. Of course, Old Man Retzler and his baying hound are known to show up at Old Man’s Cave, and the Pale Lady follows hikers at Ash Cave. But between the two areas,
the trail will lead along Queer Creek and to Cedar Falls, where ghosts are said to tarry. Their peculiar screams are explained as this--
In the early 1800s, a mill powered by the waters of Queer
Creek sat on the rim of Cedar Falls. Nearby was a massive beech tree with words engraved in its ancient trunk, “This is the road to hell, 1782.”
You can find this story and others in my book Haunted Hocking Hills.
