Bowden Road in Texas, nicknamed as Demons Roads and Martha Chapel Cemetery has been called the most haunted road and cemetery in the US state. According to legends, the name Martha’s Chapel was likely derived from the name of the first person buried in the new church’s cemetery, Martha Palmer. Martha’s Chapel is also known as Robinson’s Settlement, and it was seven miles southwest of Huntsville. Claims of voices and shadow people have been made in the cemetery along with spirit hands coming out of the ground. Many even claim that spirits do follow you home after being in the cemetery. The Black Nun: Here’s the True Ghost Story of Sarah Whitehead Who Many Believe Still Haunts the Bank of England, Ready for a Nightmare?

According to a report, in 2010, a woman stated the encounter her husband and their friends had while at the cemetery. She claimed they saw a man wandering through the cemetery in the evening. They did not pay much heed to the wanderer, and a few days later, when she turned around to close the shower curtain to take her bath, she was surprised to see the same many they saw wandering through the cemetery. The man reportedly disappeared after instilling immense fear in the woman. While many theories disapprove the claims, it is said that locals warn people who desire to brave the graveyard, not to provoke the spirits.
