Historical Paranormal

Historian Dale Cox Featured on Wiregrass Haunts

Stan and Teresa Fikes, the husband and wife duo of #Wiregrass Haunts, a local Internet radio show that covers reports of paranormal activity all over the USA, recently welcomed historian #Dale Cox to their program. Cox was invited to share his historical expertise on the program, as well as share a few stories of paranormal encounters he had experienced.  Cox’s Story of the Bellamy Bridge After being asked about where he grew up and what kind of paranormal activity he heard about as a kid, Cox said that the most popular story in the #Florida suburb where he grew up was the one about Bellamy Bridge. Cox told the story about how a young woman was said to have died in the 1830s and was buried near the bridge, and Cox said how he managed to find reports from the 1890s of people alleging to have seen her ghost. Stump Jumper Another popular story Cox shared was of a “stump jumper” who is said to be a nocturnal creature often seen in swampy terrain. While he has never encountered it, Cox recalled how the creature would knock loudly on people’s doors at night and disappear when they opened the door. This happened once when Cox’s son was visiting, and Cox remembered how his son woke him, telling him that he had spotted something on two legs that then slithered through the mud and into the surrounding pond. This was Cox’s closest encounter with the being, but his friends and family have also seen it. Cox told Wiregrass Haunts how #Jackson County is one of the oldest counties, which means there’s plenty of time for stories to build. Speaking on his fondness for conducting research on paranormal topics, Cox stated:  “What I like to do is dig into them and see what the real facts about them are.”   Sources:

Investigations Paranormal

Hell Unearthed: The Dozier School for Boys

If you should live in the Wiregrass region, you live mere miles away from the location of the former #Dozier School for Boys, incorrectly described as a reform school, a little more accurately described as an abhorrent prison for young boys, and, in more realistic terms, a virtual hell on Earth, full of physical, mental, sexual and psychological torture and abuse for poor little boys, some of whom had committed petty crimes, and many of whom were #orphans who had committed no crimes at all. The black and white little boys were separated, and, not surprisingly, it was the young African-American boys who suffered the worst torture and abuse during the Dozier School’s heyday in the 1900s. As more and more is discovered about what went on the grounds of the Dozier School, the truth becomes more and more violent, #depraved and unimaginable. Yet, the evidence is there. Rooms devoted to physical torture. Bloodstains still evident on the walls. And the #unmarked graves, spread everywhere across the school’s vast property, still being unearthed. Compelling evidence Perhaps the most compelling evidence and all is the testimony of the few surviving former inmates of the Dozier School for boys, who have just begun to share the true horror of the experiences they suffered and endured at the horrid, brutal, disgusting, hellish and #deplorable Dozier School for Boys in Marianna, #Florida. Perhaps one day the WEBB Paranormal Group will have the opportunity to visit the cursed former premises of the Dozier School to see firsthand a location where compassion was abandoned, morals were shirked, and #children were abused and destroyed, even those who survived. Some scars never heal.
