Went there in the late 70's to hang around in the cemetery. I remember there being a church or house under construction and something about a female ghost in white? It was very, very spooky!

It's just a street. Nothing more. I actually walked it at night, alone, "medicated", and lived to tell about it.

This place is legendary. I have known about it almost 20 years but never ventured over there until 3 years ago. This sweet hollow/Mount misery stories go hand in hand with Mary's grave tales too.

If you're from someplace like Hicksville or Queens Sweet Hollow might be scary but if your used to dark woodsy roads it's really nothing special. My mom and my sister go riding up there.

wow....this is really scary....i drove down there with friends many years ago and i was scared to death! very narrow roads and fortunately nothing happened.

I was though about something with a car and physics....don't remember what exactly it was...anyone know?

I think it's just an urban legend... nothing to be too concerned about.

I will not go here at night. You are asking for trouble. Please be careful.

Only if you drive too fast and have to swerve to miss a raccoon.

Deaths and disappearances ... oh please

My sister used to ride horses at the stables there ... the only dangerous thing about the area is the morons that race up and down Sweet Hollow Road.

I guess I could be called one of those morons since I almost hit a tree after pretty much going airborn over one of the bumps in the road. There was also a time when we were surfing on the top of my mom's mini van thtough there and we passed a cop and all he did was call us morons. We thought for sure he was gonna turn around and get us but nope he left us alone. Good times. LoL
