Growing up in Marshall, Texas you learn many things from the living. And from them you will come to know a lot more about the dead. Being brought up in The Most Haunted City of Texas is not simple if your in tune with the ghost that haunt it.
Another legacy that has been preserved is an original section of the Old Stagecoach Road. In Harrison County just outside Marshall are a number of sites worth more than one visit. Especially if you are interested in real paranormal activity and supernatural beasts ghosts and cryptids. Haunted locations along this area include Caddo Lake, Texas' only naturally formed lake, Stagecoach Road, four miles of beautiful sunken roadway located east off U.S. 59 at the end of Harris Lake Road, and T.C Lindsey's General Store in Jonesville. T.C. Lindsey and Company, celebrating its 150th birthday in 1997, is the location of half a dozen movies. It looks about the way it did in the days of mule-drawn wagons bringing cotton to the nearby gin - the last one in East Texas. But they that know it will tell you this is the most haunted stretch of road in Texas that one should could or ever travel. Many ghosts are thought to roam this haunted dirt road, as are strange creatures. These the likes of the many supernatural cryptids of Texas. As is the strange haunted Ghost filled Stagecoach that comes to take you to hell. Many locals will tell you they have encountered it in the dark of night, rattling down the road with it's spectral driver and ghost horses. This is way many locals in the area sometimes describe it as where life meets death.
One old Stagecoach Road superstition is that if your wanted by the police never venture on to this haunted cursed road. If you do you will be arested in less then an hour.
Many other old scary tall Texas tales tell of what not to and why not to venture to this very haunted back road. For one Death and assorted supernatural creatures and beast are said to be in wait to take you to hell. Friends in school would tell of how a blood sucking fiend was heard of on Stagecoach road or that a nest of impaled real vampires were buried there in deep dug graves along side the road.
As a childhood myself and many others were often told of werewolves running in packs, murderers lying in wait, and the Devil himself strolling down the road looking for a lost soul to take. Many of these tales and tall stories have become part of the roads many urban legends of today. Whether the tales are true or just something parents told kids to keep them from venturing out there late at night no one knows for sure.
The old Texas legend of the Goatman beast, Bigfoot and the el chupacabra are also thought to live here in the shadows. Many sightings of such have been known to have occurred of these strange supernatural blood sucking and dangerous beast near the city limits of Marshall, Karnack, Texas, Swansons Landing, Texas and Uncertain, Texas.
