Review:
Rated one of the scariest abandoned places, this site has seen several tragedies. In 1783, the land was inhabited by Native Americans. Mitchell Clay, decided to appropriate some of the land in order to farm. While he was out hunting, his family was attacked and three of his children died. He took revenge on the tribe and several members were executed. In 1926, a popular amusement park was established on the land. Sadly, another two children died tragically. Subsequently, paranormal sightings and activities were noted at the site which put a halt to activities and further development. The Lake Shawnee Amusement Park site is open to the public around Halloween.
