Reeder Road and Ross Cemetery
The Story: A girl named Elizabeth Wilson drowned in a swamp after the car she was riding in went off the road into a swamp. People say that if you drive down the road at night you can see Elizabeth waiting on the side of the road waiting for a ride back to her house down the road. People who claimed to give her a ride back to her house get as far as Ross cemetery before she disappears. The same cemetery that she was buried in 1955.
Location: Reder Road in Griffith, Indiana
Me and a couple of my friends have wondered about Reeder road in Griffith, Indiana.
We visited it several times, but nothing much more than 2 deer and a couple snakes spooked us.
Just a couple days ago, my friend came across a book haunted Indiana, we saw Reeder
road in it and decided to take another shot at going there. Instead of going
to Reeder road, which is actually spelled REDAR road, we searched for Ross cemetery.
When we found it finally we searched that about 10 minutes and were chased out by someone on a four wheeler.
We went back the next day and searched for the stone on Elizabeth Wilson for about an hour.
We did not find her grave stone there ourselves. We are starting to think that either this was made up or her name is
different. But I have heard that there is another part of Reeder road that is in
Merrillville, Indiana. That is suppose to be the haunted one. But I
went to that one and didn't see anything there either.

Another Investigation at Reeder Road
I went to Reder Road and it was pretty scary but nothing interesting happened there until I went home. I was leaving my friends house in Crown Point and when I stopped for a stop sign in the neighborhood, I saw a woman dressed in all black but the weird thing about this woman was she wasn't walking she was floating. She floated right past my car and then just disappeared. And that night after it happened i got about 2 hours of sleep because every time I closed my eyes I saw her.
Another Investigation at Reeder Road
and Ross Cemetery
We went to Ross Cemetery around 10:30 p.m on Oct 22, 2005 We searched and
searched for Elizabeth Wilson's tombstone. We had no luck in finding it. We
heard from other people that it is located in one of the rear corners of the
cemetery. I took some pictures with a disposable camera. I have to get those
developed tomorrow. About Midnight, we decide to go to Reeder Rd. I took
pictures of the gate with my camera phone and I did find a figure of what seems
like a woman standing in front of the gate. I took several pictures with my
camera phone. There are many blue streaks in many pictures. I brought a video
camera with me also and tried to film our way down Reedar Road. It was pitch
black and I couldn't see anything through the camera lens so I didn't record
much. We actually walked the whole way which took us about an hour to do
so. The weird thing is it only took us a half an hour to get back to the gate.
We didn't physically see anything but we thought we would see stuff leap up and
then run back into the woods. We did hear a lot of strange noises coming from
the woods. Twigs breaking and leaves ruffling around and we knew for sure we
wasn't the ones making the noise. We experienced many drastic temperature
changes. I don't know if it was our imaginations playing tricks on us but we
didn't feel comfortable or at ease while walking through the woods. When we
crossed the tracks, we didn't see any black figure walking slowly toward us????
I did hear loud popping sounds at the tracks though. When we finally got back to
the gate I took some more pictures with my phone and one particular picture you
can see an image of a woman holding a baby. It freaked me out and I'm probably
going to investigate this again.
