Cridersville
Dixie Lee Restaurant - The restaurant is haunted by a ghost that the staff named Hector. He is very loud and has been known to make a few appearances.
Fort Amanda
Ghostly Log Cabin - Built in October of 1812 serving as a major supply base, Fort Amanda is all but gone. The only thing that remains is a cemetery and a monument in the middle of a field. Many people have reported seeing a ghostly log cabin at the site of the fort. When they tried to approach it, the cabin simply disappeared.
New Knoxville
Star Restaurant - This restaurant, also known as the Adolph Henschen Restaurant, is said to be haunted by the former owners.
St. Mary's
Convent of Mary - The church acquired this land, just west of St. Mary's, cheaply in 1852 because it was presumed to be haunted. When an administrator of the shrine, Dr. Maria Friedaburga, died on March 8, 1969, the lights in the chapel went out, flashed back on, and a remarkable fireball appeared above the shrine. This was later blamed on a blown transformer wire, but many believed that Dr. Friedaburga's ghost contributed to the events.
Wapakoneta
Brown Road House - This old abandoned house just outside of Wapakoneta is notorious as being haunted. It is said that there were two farmers living there who got in a huge argument. One of the farmers kicked the other off of his farm. Out of anger and revenge, the man who was kicked out came back and stabbed the old man several times until he died. A barn outside shows a 1945 Ford with bullet holes all throughout the car. (Thanks to Adam Moorman for submitting this haunting).
Dug Hill Bridge - This bridge that passes over the Auglaize River is said to be haunted by a hunter who was accidentally shot and killed there. His ghost is said to chase people across the bridge very late at night.
Lucky Steer Restaurant - Witnesses have reported that objects have thrown themselves from the table to the floor in the dining area.
Kohler Road - In 1966, the family living in the five room farmhouse went into extreme poverty. The whole family became ill and died off one by one until only the father remained. He was so depressed over the whole thing that he eventually committed suicide. His ghost now haunts the home. Mysterious lights have often been seen on the top floor of the home, despite the fact that the home has been abandoned for thirty years.
