HAUNTED BRIDGE, AVON, INDIANA – The Haunted Bridge in Avon, Indiana has multiple legends and stories attached to it. The Haunted Bridge is believed to have been built somewhere around 1906 although some say construction started as far back as the 1850s. One of the most famous stories associated with the bridge is that of construction worker, Henry Johnson. It is believed while working he fell into a vat of cement where he perished. Some stories suggest his co-workers heard him while others say his body was not discovered until the next day. Another story claims a young mother was on her way to take her infant to the doctor when she became trapped. Her only option was to jump off the bridge with her infant to save their lives. The woman survived but the child did not. The young mother eventually died a few weeks later. Visitors to the bridge claim to hear screaming and seeing what they believe is the ghost of the young mother walking around the bridge.

The closing of the Venice Beach Freakshow on 30 April 2017 may have been one of the most emblematic moments in the gentrification of Venice Beach. After a decade of circus-like performances – featuring two-headed turtles, five-legged dogs, bearded ladies, sword swallowers and other cast members who glorified the weird and the outcast – the Venice Beach Freakshow was forced out of its location on the boardwalk.

Palace Restaurant & Saloon, Prescott AZ was first opened back in September of 1877. This was much more than just another drinking den. It was decorated in lavish and tasteful décor and stocked only the finest liqueurs imported from some of the most exotic locations all over the world. In short, it was a little bit more upmarket than most saloons of the time. However, in 1883 it was destroyed in a faire and the owner, one Robert Brow, had to rebuild.
