My fiancee & I went to Hampton on Tuesday. There was a fire very recently; parts of it were still slowly burning. The fire revealed several foundations that I had no idea existed; I only ever saw the main one. I was surprised to see how much else is there.

I was showing a friend Charles Wills' grave and Friendship yesterday. At the grave we met 3 other people there. One was a photographer for a newspaper, and another was a woman who told us she had a ghost town book coming out in September. We talked for a few minutes and she asked me if I knew...

A few weeks ago we were geocaching in Lebanon, and right by the old rusted out Cadillac (I think it's a Cadillac) there's a clearing. My friend was poking around there when he froze up and called me over. I saw this cute lil' guy just as frozen as my friend. I haven't been up to date on my...

The past few weeks I've been trying to find the sites of Old Half Way, Union Clay Works, and Red Oak Grove. I don't really know if I'm looking in the right area or not. On one of our trips, we decided to go straight instead of making that 2nd right. Down the road a bit we saw this stuff just...

It's been about a year since I went out to find Calico. Since then, I've heard so many stories about its true location. From what I understand, barely nothing is left of it. I found what looked like the ruins of a town (my photos are here). First I was told this was Calico, and then I got a...

I recently revisited the Shaler Grave. I've read about it but can't find anything about the concrete thing next to it. Anyone know what it is? Someone told me stables but I highly doubt it; it looks newer anyway. Pics are here.

I recently found the graves at Clark's Landing; that was quite an adventure. What exactly was Clark's Landing though, a town or just his home? And was it named after Thomas Clark who's buried there, or another Clark? I've tried looking up information about the place a few times, but all I can...

We were looking for caches off Mt. Misery Road today and one brought us to Buckingham. We were walking along and I spotted a foundation near some large trees. Switching quickly from caching mode to exploring mode I quickly found 2 more. There's a house or gun club just up a bit from the...

We went out there today to find a cache near there; this was my first time there since Halloween night. The place is getting worse & worse every time I visit it. There was much more graffiti than only 2 months ago. Even worse, someone dumped off a couch along the trail, which has a good 50 or...

We drove to Carusoville today to get some new pics. A cop passed us, coming from Carusoville. Not really thinking about it, I waved and kept going. So we get there and I get 2 pics. I notice smoke coming out of one of the barrels (where kids normally have bonfires). I get back to the truck...

I was looking over old places on my site that may need newer pictures when I came across this one. It's an old house right on Rt. 679, not too far from Harrisville if I remember correctly (it's been about 2 years). Don't mind the dark pictures; that was a crappy camera...

This isn't exactly a ghost town...it's still populated. I wasn't sure where to post this....but this is the closest thing to it. AND it's in the Pines, so I believe it fits here. I have stumbled upon a group of people who live in the woods.....in downtown Toms River. And I mean in tents...

This is why you should always, always wear shoes when romping around in the Pines looking for ghost towns:

Does anyone know anything about the town of Ongs Hat? I've gone out a few times over the past 3-4 years trying to find it. All I've come up with is that it's "off 72 somewhere". I managed to find Ongs Hat Road (which has a cool trail, the Dot and Brooks Evert trail). I'm not interested in...

Last year we tried finding Weymouth Furnace to put on my site but couldn't. I was just wondering if anyone has been there and if there is actually anything there? I've been down that way a few times but never could find where it is. I heard one story that the rocks or ground around it have...

I came upon this lil' guy while looking for an abandoned house near OCC last summer. If you look at the pic, you see there are many, many mosquitoes on it. There were also more flying around it. Any reason this turtle has had the first circle of hell inflicted upon it?

I had heard about an old trestle behind Hebrew Park in Forked River/Bayville, and I finally found it today. One half of it's badly burnt. I can't find any info about it or if it even has a name. I just know it's a local swimming hole. Anyone know what I'm talking about or know anything about it?
