[edit] Location and description
It is located in Hampden, Massachusetts (Hampden County) and is a popular location for parties. For a while now, legends and rumors have been spreading around that the road itself and the forest between Rock-A-Dundee and Howlett Hill Roads are haunted. Forty years ago, this road didn't exist and was part of the forest.
[edit] Local legends
[edit] "Crazy" woman
Popular legend says that a crazy woman lived in that forest, and if anyone came anywhere near her living quarters, she would chase them away with a hatchet. This happened during the 1960s, therefore, today it is said to be the spirit of the woman who chases people away.
[edit] "The Rockadundee Spirits"
Yet another legend says that ten teenagers went out on the road and killed themselves in a row. Today, they are known as "The Rockadundee Spirits". Police had denied any claim of this event occurring, but it has been reported that as children, adults tied up the ropes as a practical joke.
