The Lot at Idaho Falls

Idaho · United States · House

A fenced, overgrown empty lot with no power and no water connected. Passers by report the sound of running water and light in the leaves of the trees.

There is an empty lot at Idaho Falls, Idaho, fenced off and hidden behind overgrown trees. A house is said to have stood on it.

What makes the reports peculiar is that the utilities are gone. There is no power and no water service to the plot. Even so, people walking past describe hearing running water, and seeing the leaves of the trees lit from below and behind, as though the house were still there with its rooms lit.

Several people have been onto the lot. What they describe is the spirits of a family, said locally to have been murdered by the father, moving about the yard.

No record of any such killing has been produced, and it is set down here as local legend rather than as fact. The claim is serious enough that it should not be repeated as history.

The lot is private property and fenced. What can be checked from the pavement is that nothing is connected to it, and that people keep reporting light and water anyway.
