 10. K O P
  Kingsbury Ordnance Plant (Kingsbury Fish and Wildlife  Area) Located in LaPorte County, the Kingsbury Ordnance Plant was amunitions plant built for the U.S. Army in the time of World War II. 13,454 acres were acquired and the plant was built between 1940 and 1941. The first munition was completed in 1941. The plant hit a peak number of employees in May 1942 with 20,785 people building 20mm to 105mm shells for the war. In August of 1945, the plant began to close down since it was no longer needed. The plant was reopened in 1951 for the Korean War. Korea was the last military use it would see.The Army sold the land in 1959. Today hunting, fishing, and camping are the
main uses of the land, long
 with some industrial companies. It is now known as the Kingsbury Fish and Wildlife Area. It is also host to a bigfoot type creature who likes to scare campers there at nite. I have been there during the day and have been to some of the old buildings I couldnt enter one because I smelled gas in the air, but building was so old no gas lines were connected. Found out that during the war there were gas explosions that killed workers there.
 
                                9. Gravity Hill
 This is a fun spot for the kids ( my grandkids love it ) It is located on county line road between Michigan City, In and Westville, IN. You put your car in nuturel and the car will drive by itself. The speed goes from 10 mph to 35 mph depending on what kind of car you have. It was said that at one time a school bus was hit by a train so now when you stop the children of the train push you
 over the tracks. It is fun to do and the kids love great spot.
 
                           8. I Street Clinic
 Formly the old Zimmerman House, Well I can still remember the house I was 5 yrs old when it still stood on the corner of I st. and 10th st. in La Porte. My older brother and his friends would go into the home at nite. From what I was told the home held a beutiful charm to it, but it was also haunted. The owners heard door bells ringing and when answering the door no one would be there. Coins rolling down the long winding stairs with no one throwing them. Well the ghosts are still there even if the home isnt. They now haunt the clinic many nurses have heard steps in the hallways when locking up for the nite. The elevator will run by itself, whatever ever walks there walks alone !!!!!!!!!!!!!

                           7. Saugany Lake
 This is a very small lake located off of State Rd. 2 east of La Porte. I have heard for years and also from someone who had a relative working for the goverment that most of the UFO sightings in the northern part of the U.S. have been in this area. There is also a local legend that no person will ever drown in that lake because it is protected by the ghost of Chief Saugany an old wise Indian.

                        6. Range Road Pond
 This is the area where the body of 16 year old Rayna Rison was found. Rison disappeared in March of 1993 after leaving the animal hospital where she worked after school. Her body was found 30 days later in the pond. When going out to the pond to see what we could pick up on there was a heavy feeling of unrest.There was also a feeling of being watched. I would suggest when going out into this area DONT GO ALONE. The spirits are not at peace there. 

                      5. Soliders Memorial Park
 Now this has some stories to it. It is said that there was a young boy who drowned in Pine Lake and his spirit walks the the trails in the woods there and also walks Waverly Rd late nite. When I was a young girl about 10 my brother and his friends would go down to the lake at nite to party. Well two of his friends and him were walking back to our house ( we only lived about 4 to 5 blocks from the lake ) and they got to where the big street light was when all of a sudden they saw a small boy. They thought the boy might have been about 7 or 8 years old. Well they couldnt figure out what a small boy was doing out at around midnite. They were walking towards Pine Lake ave and the boy was walking toward them, when he got closer to them he looked at them with a grin that went ear to ear. When they watch him walk by then he disappeared. Let me tell you when my brother and freinds got home they were out of breathe and shook up. My mother to them to that was sign for them to behave.
 
                            4. Orr Lake Rd
 Legend has it that at one time a Doctor and his wife and beutiful young teenage daughter lived on this road. This was back sometime in the 1800's. It was still a time of sicknesses that there were little or no cures for. Well one day the doctors wife got very sick within 24 hours
 she died, then his lovey daughter died a day after his wife. The poor Doctor was beside himself not just with the loss of his wife but his lovey daughter too!!! Well this Doctor was just not into healing but also into a new way to perseavre the human bodies, instead of burying his dead he put both his wife and daughter in big pickle barrels and it is said that on a full moon you can see him and his man servent ( which his man servent has a hook on his right hand HOOK MAN ) going into the woods with a lantern and if you look closely you will see the bodies of the wife and the daughter being dunked up & down up & down, this keeps the bodies from going bad and keeps them forever young.
 
                       3. Devil's Bridge
 This is an old road that was used by the gangsters during the proabation erea. It is said that the mobsters would leave a body or two there on their way to Chicago. I have seen images of bodies there and have gotten some wonderful orb shots.

                         2. Patton Cemetary
 Belles last man is buried here. There is said to be alot of weird things as I have friend who lives right acroos the street from there. Well he works late nites and when he comes home he has heard people talking and he has looked over into the cemetary and seen no one there. It is a great place to get pica of orbs too and wonderful place to go ghost hunting.
 
                  1. Posey Chapel Cemetary
 Wow I have to say this is La Porte's number one spot. Almost anytime I have ever been there I have heard or seen something. The list is endless there. Great shots of orbs too ! You can hear and see paramormal activity there always so this is what makes Posey the number one spot. It is a ghost hunters treasure.
