Maryland didnt have a location on it. well i live about 5mins away from that
creepy road and its off Leitersburg Pike (route 60) its right by the
Par-Mar Truck bed Cap place (could be Pen-Mar regaurdless its right next to
it).
Also, The man whos Girlfriend was hanging by the old Oak Tree pulled his car
up to the tree right under her before he dissapeard, it was said that if you
drove your car up under the tree at night and turned your car off you can
hear her feet on the roof (scary as h***) but since then the state has put a
Gaurd Rail up around the bend which the tree is located and there is no way
to do it anymore without running over the rail. You can climb over the rail
and visit the mini Grave Yard which resembles that of Pet Cemetary.
