Beaver

Buckhollow Road - The road and the homes along it is said to be haunted by their former residents.
Idaho
Beaver's Ridge Road - People have claimed that this road is haunted, but the exact location of the haunting is unknown. Witnesses have reported that their vehicles stall for no reason and seeing a ghostly figure cross the road. After the ghost vanishes into the darkness, the vehicle will resume normal operation. There have also been reports of weird feelings and the feeling of being watched if one stops along the road at night.
Lathem
Red Bridge - It is said that if one stops their vehicle on the bridge, honks their horn once, and turns off their vehicle, a ghostly movie will play in front of the vehicle. In this movie, a ball rolls across the bridge. A little boy comes out to get the ball and a speeding car hits him and drives off, leaving the boy very disfigured. During the movie, your vehicle will not start and the doors will not open. When the boy thinks you have seen enough, the movie ends and your vehicle will be able to start once again.

Omega
Uncle Bill's Hollow - People have reported being chased out the hollow by barrels rolling at them. Those who have made it further into the hollow claim to have been chased out by someone...or something.
Pike Lake State Park
Ghostly Hands - The park is haunted by a pair of hands that belonged to a woman who lost them in a bonfire accident sometime in the 1860s. People walking the path at night have felt the hands touching them and have seen them crawling down the path.
Wakefield
Big Run Road - During a basketball game, a fire broke out in the boiler room of the high school there. Several people died, and to this day, people still visit the burnt school building. Some have claimed to see a cheerleader with her back turned. When she turns around, her whole front side is burned. Others have reported their cameras have malfunctioned with trying to take a photo of the building. If you're lucky enough to have a camera that works, people have photographed large red orbs on the grounds. (Thanks to Peggy Ward for the additional information).
Waverly
Emmitt Cemetery - This cemetery is supposedly haunted by the Emmitt sisters buried there. One sister hung herself and the other shot herself. On their respective tombstones, a noose circles the "E" of one sister and the other sister's tombstone had a statue of her holding a gun. The gun was broken off of the statue and is now gone. On certain nights, one can see the ghostly sisters roaming the cemetery. (Thanks to Joshua Holt for submitting this haunting).
Garnett Wilson
Library - The library is haunted by the ghost of an elderly woman,
appearing to be in her late seventies. Witnesses have reported seeing her with
her hair up in a bun, wearing an old red dress to her ankles and black shoes.
She's often been seen holding an old book and a handkerchief in her hand. After
being seen, she generally vanishes into thin air.
