Another legend involves a day camp which supposedly existed along the road during the 1930s. Some of the children who went to the camp are said to have been abused or even killed, and their spirits can occasionally be seen walking along the road wearing ‘30s clothing, though they quickly vanish. Sweet Hollow Road is also said to be home to a police officer who was shot and killed. His ghost still patrols the street and will pull motorists over from time to time, but after letting them go he turns about to return to his car only to have his head blown off by a shotgun.
Finally, the road is also the subject of one of the Mary’s Grave legends. This version takes place centuries after most of the others, but still involves a young woman named Mary who suffered a tragic fate. Mary is said to have gotten into a fight with her boyfriend while driving down the road and was then either pushed out of the car by him or jumped out of it herself; in either event, she was quickly hit by oncoming traffic and died. Some say you can still see a lady in white walking along the side of the road, and that she will jump in front of your car when you pass. Mary’s grave and tombstone are also alleged to be located in a small cemetery on Sweet Hollow Road.

Share Your ExperiencesThe craziest thing to ever happen to us
My brother, his gf and I went the weekend before Halloween. We drove down the road, where his gf and him, in the front seat, saw something kind of hovering in front of the car. We stopped in the little park area, and it was pitch black. We were totally silent, and his gf and I were going to get out to explore but he told us he would leave us if we did, so we stayed. As we were sitting there, we heard footsteps coming towards the car, as if from the woods. They sounded like they were walking on leaves, my brother and I said, or gravel, his gf said. Then, shushing each other, we heard a wailing or moaning noise also coming from the woods. There was nobody else around, and we would have seen a flashlight coming from the woods if it was actually a human, because, as I said, it was really dark. No human would have been able to see where they were going in the woods. It literally sounded like a woman moaning, like the tale of the woman in white. We stayed there for a few moments longer and continued to hear both the wailing and the crunching footsteps. Scared, my brother decided we were leaving and we did, but we took with us that scary experience. And we will be going back soon, next time to visit Mary Hatchet´s grave. We can´t wait!
Posted 12/20/20WOULD DEFINITELY TRY!!
it is a halloween night and my friends and I decided to go to Sweet Hollow Road in huntington. we thought it was just a joke and was just a dark narrow road until we came across the bridge and return the car to neutral. The first few seconds nothing happened until the cars started to move backwards. if felt like we were going forward but when you looked out the window we were going backwards. The ghost kept pushing us back to the same spot underneath the bridge. we soon went out of the road and we used baby powder behind the truck in front of the truck. we went back to the same spot and we heard three beeps and there were loud tapping noises on the car. It was continuously as we went backwards faster this time and had a short stop. The car kept being stopped at the end of the bridge as of the ghost were telling us to leave. when we left the area we noticed there were three weird water droplets on the window even though it has not rain and the baby powder in the front had strange marks and went up the car to the roof. we left with the strange feeling and my friends and i felt warm after we left.

Proceed with caution!!!
My daughters and I out of curiosity drove down Sweet Hollow Rd. Being cautious and not knowing what to expect, did actually experienced a couple of things. First, there was an area before the bridge that gave us a feeling that there was severe pressure pulling the car down as well as sucking the life right out of us. Next, was when we stopped at the end of the bridge and put the car in park, as we sat there my daughter was watching the yellow lines in the road as I was watching the grassy edge the ground seemed to be slowing moving forward giving us the feeling that we we’re going backwards. It was quite interesting, and I wish I had an explanation. But I don’t.
Posted 10/21/20WARNING!!!!!
Please do not go there!! I haven’t been able to sleep!! There is a spell on me and my family since we went there!! I have blood shot eyes that haven’t gone away with high fever that is not Covid we were tested all of us and the results are inconclusive for all of us.. we got out of our car and went up to the back side of the cemetery to see what all the hype was when we heard a moaning noise then a high pitch squeal. The ground got soft as we ran back to the car like quick sand. When we got to the car the trunk was open with a white dress in it that stunk of fish sticks and salami ! My son shit his pants. It was a mess we needed the shamwow and magic eraser just to clean the mess. Please don’t go unless you are prepared for this!!!

surprising!!
when i was driving with my friends , we saw a lady dressed in white on the side of the road. we kept going and then all of a sudden she was right in front of the car about 500 feet away and we stopped. right in front of our eyes, she disappeared. shortly after that we heard a quiet crying and moaning sound...it was terrifyingly fun and we will go again!!!!!!

Surprised!
I went with a bunch of friends a few years ago. Put baby powder on the back bumper and put the car in neutral. The car went through the overpass and just stopped. Powder also yielded interesting results. Can’t wait to go again!!

The Curse Of Goose Hill Road
Back in the early 1700s-1800s in cold spring harbor New York, there was a red barn house that still exists’ today up on goose hill road and it has been told that it was a slaughterhouse for animals to make food but one day the kids of the owner of the slaughterhouse were killed after playing around with the tools while there dad was out looking for animals to kill but legend says that at 7:11pm the time the kids were killed at scream in pain and agony and hear the dad cry their names out 40 minutes later and saying “THEY TOOK THEM TOO SOON” until when it hits Midnight you can feel the hand of the kids on your leg and say “where are you going new friend?”
