Ohio's spooky spots and where are they?
Can you name and give the locations of Ohio's spookiest spots?
I have one, off Rt30 & SR13 in Mansfeild Ohio the old "Mansfeild Ohio Reformatory" (the Castle) as we call it, was part of filming for "Shawshack Redemption". Scarry as Hell!

I have a few stories of some supposed hauntings from where I grew up:
Gore Orphanage Road near the Lorain / Erie County line in Vermilion; mainly urban legend, but the story includes an orphanage buring down with young children (who were abused by the owner) still inside
Also, supposedly there is a haunted cemetery at the corner of Mason Road and Cemetery Road near Vermilion; Maple Grove Cemetery, where a statue has glowing eyes or bloody teardrops or something LOL
Abbott's tomb in the Milan Cemetery in the village of Milan; the entrance is on a steep hillside and you can supposedly look in and see a rocking chair slowly rocking; also it is said that if you knock, Mr. and Mrs. Abbott will chase you away
Another story I've heard actually is in a location only about a mile away from where my parents live; the part of the valley where Seymour Creek joins the Huron River, north of Monroeville (area is called "Blue Bridge" due to the presence of a blue wood/iron bridge) is supposedly haunted with Native American and War of 1812 apparitions; two American soldiers were supposedly murdered up on a ridge overlooking a creek, one of the murder victims last names was Seymour; thus the creek is known as Seymour Creek
There are numerous other stories, like the haunted carousel at Cedar Point, or Lover's Lane near Norwalk, etc. etc.
