Just found this section of the forum, hello! I travel to abandoned sites at least once or twice a week and take alot of pictures and video. To save posting a bunch of youtube links let me just say my channel is [url]http://www.youtube.com/theunknowncameraman[/url] Based out of the US, I travel all over to find the weirdest, oldest, and creepiest stuff I can find. One of the strangest things I have come across though is an old well. Rather than demolishing this well, the township built a cage around it, and a wooden shed around it. ........and then a concrete structure all around, sealed shut. There is insane security on this thing too, IR cameras, loudspeakers with prerecorded messages threatening that you will be arrested and such, but no signs that say no trespassing or anything. You are walking along in the woods and all of a sudden you are getting your picture taken and getting yelled at by a loudspeaker. This just only makes one curiouser about what it is that you are not allowed to see. Of course there is a silly local legend about it that witches were sacrificed and the bodies were thrown down the well rather than being buried in the cemetery. It is very possibly and likely this is true, though I have found no documented evidence to official support this idea. The town has a history of witchcraft fears, there is an old altar near the well that is said to have housed the witch trails some 300 years ago. But really, what is up with the crazy security? why not demolish it? it is in the center of a historical town, there is a story behind everything, and no one knows the story of just this one spot. Video of the spot on my channel. I also uploaded a video today of an abandoned factory I explored yesterday that turned out to have a skatepark inside roughly built by the local kids.
By the way, to do videos, do [noparse][media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJl5Mgc82Ng[/media][/noparse]
Your videos remind me of Marble Hornets. [editline]ohlord[/editline] Your "Donner Pass Train Tunnels and Hieroglyphs" video was pretty cool. Try taking steadier footage though.
