New Boston, Illinois Ghost Tales I use to live in New Boston, I now live in Joy Illinois. What is now the bank/ apartment, use to be just a bank that this older couple owned a long time ago, when you walk by it at night when the whole town is in bed asleep, you will have this feeling the entire way of your journey that you are being watched and sometimes its like you can hear footsteps following you but when you turn and look they stop. If you sit at the car wash on main st and look up at the windows above the bank at night, you will sometimes see and old woman watching over the town and as soon as she catches you looking at her, she disappears, I have not had this happen to me, but I have felt like I was being followed at night when walking by the bank.
