Highway Ghost!

VERIFIED

No shit I grew up here and remember hearing stories about this park being haunted by some girl but completely forgot about them. My kids were staying with their grandparents for the summer and enrolled in a summer park program held at the park and during a facetime told me all about how the park was haunted by a ghost girl and different stories the kids there had told them and how the ghost girl haunts the park and the highway next to it, I thought it was cute the stories are still being told 30 years later. When I came back to Long Lake for a for a few days here in August I went and saw some old friends in the area and told them all about it and they told me to look for the highway girl when passing the park on highway 12 saying they had all seen her at some point playing where the old tracks and park used to be. we laughed thinking they had been enjoying too much of that newly legalized cannabis here. That night me and my wife went for a walk and while crossing the bridge looked down on the highway and sure as shit there was a girl walking along the road as cars drove by, and this isn't someplace anyone let alone a small kid should be walking! Then she ran into the grass back towards the railroad tracks and park and I swear she disappeared before our eyes. It was a little after 8 so the sun had just gone down but you could still see clearly. We walked back towards the park and looked all over for the kid but didn't see her or anyone else in the area. But our dog kept barking at nothing the entire time once we got over to where we expected to find her. I have no idea where the kid could have gone other than maybe she really wasn't there.

Omg!

We recently moved to this neighborhood! My youngest has been talking none stop about his imaginary friend SARAH for months! My neighbor said it was probably the girl from the park! Twice now I thought I saw a girl in my house. I don't think she's just at the park.

Holbrook Park/Highway 12

We called the girl Sarah! I think 2am was a typo, we always heard midnight, though anyone who spent enough time at that park like I did growing up had experiences with her at different times. The old creepy part of the park is gone though and is now highway. Recently my wife freaked out and had me stop while driving by on highway 12 next to the park late at night. She saw a little girl in a dress walking next to the road and was concerned because it was so late. I stopped the girl was gone my wife was freaked out and I laughed and told her about this ghost story. She didn't believe me until I had her Google Holbrook ghost.

Clarification Needed

Can anyone clarify whether or not the ghost appears on what would truly be 2:00am Sunday morning (as in 3 hours past Saturday at 11:00pm), or is it actually 2:00am Monday morning (3 hours past Sunday at 11:00pm)?

About a year ago (May) we went with emf readers on cell phones at what would technically be Sunday morning (2:00am), looked around and saw/found nothing (hence my current poor rating).

Old story.

I grew up next to this park in 80s, 90s and practically lived there like every kid in the neighborhood. The park and surrounding neighborhood used to be an apple ochard until the housing development in the 60s. There used to be a second playground on the northeast corner of the park, it was surrounded by a wooded area next to the old railway tracks that are now the highway and the train tracks moved south taking out that playground. This playground had a path to the tracks were we all played as kids and smoked our first cigarettes or snuck drinks as kids away from adult eyes. However we were told to stay away from the tracks and that a young kid was killed by a train and they haunted the surrounding area. Never heard this version growing up, always figured something told to scare us kids into just staying away from the tracks. Went for a walk around the park in high school one night with my girlfriend for some alone time. We were sitting in the back corner of the park on the merry-go-round at like 10:00 on Friday night when we heard a kid giggling and saw movement in the brush, took a look nothing there. We left after that.

Scary but didn't see her or her dad

When we got there we parked in the parking lot and right away we heard banging on the roof. But it actually turned out to be that we parked under an apple tree. We didn't see any apparitions but the fact the story says she carries apples and there's apple trees there is super creepy
