| 2907 | Article | Vaporman87 | I can't imagine the fear you must have felt just prior to realizing the prank that had been played on you. That would definitely be something I NEVER forgot. A great tale of childhood shenanigans. It's great that you were able to revisit that "sacred" place in your memories. That too, would be quite memorable. | Oct 14, 2015 |  | |
| 2920 | Article | echidna64 | Thank you for sharing this great local haunt! You sparked my curiosity and so I started doing some research and found that another gravestone at the Salt Lake City Cemetary might be related. The headstone for Lilly E. Gray reads "Victim of the Beast 666" | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2921 | Article | NLogan | Being a Utah kid We have also journeyed to far off Graves in the dead of night. The Moritz grave was one of them. My dad said originally there was a ruby colored pane of glass and when the face came to the window it was actually your distorted reflection in the candlelight. Another thing kids do there is walk backwards on the small border stones until they fall off, giving them the years they have left. I have seen the weeping woman of Logan cemetery, the weeping woman of Spanish Fork, the car headstone since removed from Payson cemetery, and memory grove among others. One of the coolest cemeteries is just outside Ophir or Mercury can't remember which that is about 50 yards off the roadway leading to an old mining town. It has or had a little fence and upright pioneer era headstones that were crumbling. | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2923 | Article | Vaporman87 | While traveling though West Virginia, a gentleman whom I work with and who has known my family for generations explained to me that somewhere in a wooded area off the highway was a now overgrown and hidden graveyard where some of my ancestors were buried. I remember this because he had told me that their last names had been either Corne or Korne or something like that, and that I also had ancestors with the last name Cobb. Korne, Cobb, ... corn cobb. Hahaha. | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2924 | Article | Rick Ace Rhodes | My hometown had all kinds of stuff like this growing up. I don't know if you ever read them, but the Ghost Investigator books that written by Linda Zimmermann were based out of my hometown (or at least the first few were). I remember in middle school would always get into the Halloween mood by reading those books. All those hauntings and urban legends would always creep us out. | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2925 | Article | Drakkensky | Hey NLogan, glad to know another Utahn. Lol. I have heard about the weeping woman tombstones, but haven't been to them. I know the exact place you are talking about, the Ophir ghost town, out by Tooele. I've been there, it was really cool. echidna64, yeah, the Lily E. Gray headstone is pretty interesting. That is just more of an oddity than anything. The only thing that is really said about that, was just that her husband, and last living relative was the one that had it made, and that he was a loony, and was placed in an asylum. | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2926 | Article | Drakkensky | The Gilgal Gardens, Memorial Park, Hobbitville, and Gravity Hill are fun ones to visit as well. Did those the same month as Emo's. Lol. The new found freedom of getting your driver's license, and having a best friend that had his very own car. Lol | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2937 | Article | NLogan | I've been to all the places you mentioned except for Gilgal Gardens. I have a list of haunted places in Utah I have been to around 70 or 80 of them. | Urban Legend visit of my youth-revisited | Oct 14, 2015 | |
| 2949 | Article | kidcoffee | As a kid I hated those cursed McDonalds trick or treat buckets as I felt I was gypped an actual toy, but looking back now those were super cool. In fact I still have my original collection somewhere in my house gathering dust. I really should give them a proper display. As for the McNugget monsters, those I loved. Probably my second favorite McDonald's toy of all time with the first being the McRobots. Both of which have caused me a lot of wasted time on Ebay trying to buy back a piece of my childhood. Great article. It brought back a lot of fantastic memories. | Halloween Promotional Items of the 80s and 90s | Oct 15, 2015 | |
| 2954 | Article | onipar | Thanks! Were the McRobots the ones that transformed? I used to love those. I really just want toys in cereal boxes again. :-p | Halloween Promotional Items of the 80s and 90s | Oct 15, 2015 | |
