Portland’s Underground City: The Shanghai Tunnels
Did you know that an entire city lies beneath Portland, Oregon? Portland was rebuilt on top of its Old Town and Chinatown. Today, the underground route is known as the Shanghai Tunnels. It conceals Portland’s dark, immoral history.
In the 19th century, Portland became an infamous area. Back then, visitors would get drugged and shipped off as slaves (“Shanghai’d”). Robbery and violence were commonplace there. Nowadays, the only evidence of this past lies underground. Tourists have claimed to see shadowy figures and hear disembodied voices while in the Shanghai Tunnels.
The Jersey Devil Lives In Pine Barrens Forest
The Pine Barrens forest consumes 1.1 million acres of New Jersey. It is most famous (or infamous, rather) as the home of the Jersey Devil. According to legends, the Jersey Devil is a bipedal creature with wings, a forked tail, and a horse-like head. It is said to have terrorized the residents of Pines since 1735.
But Pine Barrens has more legends than that. Some people claim that fallen soldiers from the Civil War still roam the forest. Abandoned villages appear throughout the forest, which only adds to its eerie vibe. It’s no wonder why Pine Barrens is the most haunted location in New Jersey.
