Guest Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I will gladly help lead anyone through the upper tunnel and safely down the hill to the lower tunnel lol), but I will not go to the lower (active) tunnel as night falls. Never again will I go through seeing or feeling anything like that in my life again. And I like ghosts, I have a hobby of hunting them...but that thing, that was just demonic in nature. To feel a child like apparition hold onto my boot as I walked and then turn around and see the fog at the entrance turn into a human form at the other end walking back and forth (as if a warden) was enough for me. I've never done much research on the area, but your experience has me intrigued. I would like to know what else was in the area before the tunnels. Does anyone know? If it's already been mentioned, I apologize for asking again. I do agree with you though Shmoopie, that sort of energy wouldn't be pleasant. Sorry you had that experience, but glad to hear it didn't stop you from looking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Rider Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 While I'm not interested in searching out other forms of energy - too scary, one of the best books on demons that I have ever read and re-read occasionally is Hostage To the Devil by Malachi Martin.

In the lower tunnel? I didn't see a thing. The upper tunnel is the one that gave me the heebie-jeebies. The hair on the back of my neck was standing on end.

old3dogg Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 I think the tunnels are neat because I like local history. My buddy Bon loaned me a book on the Austin dam break in 1911. Now I want to go up there and explore the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I want to go up there and explore the area. I've driven by there lots of times but never got out to investigate. I want to also get up that way to see the darkest park east of the Mississippi. old3dogg and Dobby 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have to take a "extended" lunch break when the weather gets nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petee Posted March 10, 2015 Share Posted March 10, 2015 Yes, remember that the tunnels are both old and occasionally have falling objects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You both should go down into the dam area ... once the mud dries up .. diet road about a mile long getting to the park area. Dobby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in Austin, there are 2 ways of getting there, the scenic route or the scenic route!! If you go with old3dogg, he will be looking for the hookers house on the hill before the dam..lol.

Bon Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 I asked old dog what he learned from reading the story about the Austin Dam. He says Don't trust an engineer??? I said nooo ... If it wasn't for the hookers, more people would of died from the dam break!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some 'scopes there that would rival some of what NASA has! Bon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been trying to get up that way to use them for a couple years. They are supposed to even have a solar telescope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bon Posted March 11, 2015 Share Posted March 11, 2015 We stopped 3 yrs ago when we went for a ride. Walked around and looked at the telescope "houses" they have!! pretty awesome!! They list when they will have the telescopes running,but you have to make reservations because it has gotten so popular. As a kid, we went to Cherry Springs so much, that it doesn't do anything for me ... kinda like the PA Grand Canyon ... big whoop!!! My mom was from Tioga Co, so we saw that stuff all the time!!

Dodgeman Posted March 11, 2015 Author Share Posted March 11, 2015 I love all things paranormal, so this would definitely intrigue me. In warmer weather of course, because as much as I love ghosts and goblins, I love my toes more lol. I would be willing to take some on a tour of the upper tunnel, but believe me its a spooky walk through there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
