"I ain't afraid of no ghost."
About Me
- Christine K
- I am from Cumberland, RI and I was first interested in the paranormal in middle school. I loved surfing the web for others' experiences with ghosts. I did not put my passions into action until a couple of years ago when I found my partner in crime- Katie! She shared almost all of the same interests as me and we decided to do research on local haunted places that we could go investigate! So here are my personal accounts of what haunted sights I have been to and the experiences I have had. Feel free to comment and share your experiences with me! Enjoy :)
Tucker Hollow Road- Not so hollow!
Tucker Hollow Road in Foster, RI was certainly an interesting sight to visit.Katie and I, as always, had done previous research before journeying to this supposedly haunted road and found that a girl named Dolly Cole and her family died in a house fire on that street. The fire was stared for unknown reasons and now she haunts the road. There have been several people who have witnessed Dolly walking on the road looking alive and well.
When we first arrived, I could already tell it was going to be creepy. It was a narrow, dirt road with thick woods and swamp areas on each sides of the road. My car had a little trouble ramudging through the rocks and dirt but I was more afraid of seeing something and having to swerve. We ended up driving the whole length of the road and I was very scared the entire time. It is definitely one of the creepiest roads in Rhode Island with no street lights, no pavement, and swamps surrouding everywhere, even the few houses that were located on the road. Who would ever want to live on that road?? It beats me, but we never did experience anything unusual except for the heaviest feeling of dread while driving down the road. We may have experienced these feelings because of how scary the road is in general, but I am also open to the fact that there could be a haunting that is residual- meaning the spirit does not know it is dead and is stuck thinking that it's living in the same moment in which it died. Therefore, in Dolly Cole's cause, her feelings of dread and sadness may be existent on that road and could be felt by drivers passing through.
Anything is possible.
I lived at the end of Tucker Hollow Rd. At 101 and Tucker. I was in 1st grade to 4th grade. I walked every inch of that road. I walked in the grave yards, walked down abandon roads and explored the pond. Fished the pond with my grandfather. Found all sorts of places. This is in the late 50s.
