Question 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!

sandwalk is on a distinguished road
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.

Check out this website! I always found Ft Hayes in Columbus to be quite creepy.
