"Eyewitnessed forming in 12-15 seconds at about 7:40 A.M. by Art Rantala from his workshop located on a hill overlooking the field. He described no unusual lights or sounds, but that there was a weather front passing at the time. Each circle was formed in succession starting with the one farthest into the field, then the one closest to the road, then the one in the center with the crescent."

"I'm guessing it was about 3 feet or so in diameter and covered with white flashing lights, like strobes. I slowed down to a crawl as I got "next" to it, and remembered watching those lights and realizing as fast as they were flashing, they were all going off one at a time."

"Ghosts of America" Haunted Location Reports

| location: STATEWIDE |
The reports on this site are presumably fiction, using random Wisconsin place names in the stories listed there. Even so, you might get a kick out of reading them.
"The ghost of a ten foot high enormous guy was spotted at Lowell Dam after midnight taking in the scenery. When the spirit was spotted it faded away into the air."

| Like the Summerwind mansion in Vilas County or the Nodolf house near Platteville, the Tallman house in Horicon was deemed worthy of being recreated for a television program. "Unsolved Mysteries" aired a segment that dealt with the strange occurrences that plagued the Tallman family starting back in 1986. Accounts may vary on what actually happened in this house, but several incidents keep repeating, such as the radio in a child's room changed stations by itself, a figure of an old woman was seen behind a bedroom door at night, the father saw the attached garage engulfed in flames, plus many other poltergeist-like events. The stories also mention a bunk bed that was thought to be the source of the disturbances, so it was sent to a landfill. |

In the book "Strange Wisconsin", author Linda Godfrey tells about the harmless phantoms that have been witnessed by the owners and guests alike in this century-old bed & breakfast.
"‘Before that,’ she said, ‘guests always told me there was a poltergeist in there. One night I slept in the room and I didn't sleep a wink. Guests used to say a young girl appeared to them, and objects would be moved.’"

The old bridge was replaced by a modern span in 2008. I don't think that they reinstalled the blood-dripping function...

The school in question is believed to be Ashippun Elementary School, which has been demolished. Perhaps some haunted townhouses will be built on the plot. The debate is out on the school's paranormal status. One story concerns a young girl who took a shortcut near the school and was never seen or heard from again.
"School had an eerie feel when going by and playground had creepy feel as well. Was curious if any known activity at this School."

| Contrary to thrill-seekers' wishes, the ghosts in question here were nothing more than Prohibition-era moonshiners who dressed up in sheets to scare off the revenuers, who had come to seek out illegal stills in the woods. Several hills can be found on this road with no clue as to identity of the true Ghost Hill. |

The road, which is 2 miles north of Highway 16, extends 2.5 miles from County Road TT to County Road J.
