Platte Center, Nebraska Ghost Tales I have lived in Platte Center NE for the last 20 years of my life. I have become quite the historian of this little town I call home. not only can I verify some of these stories, but I can contribute my own. In the early 1900's 3 young men dug a small cave into the bed of a creek running south of the town. The unstable soil gave way and buried all 3 alive...none survived. Late at night, the ghosts of the 3 can be seen in the creek bed digging with their shovels by lantern light. After a brief moment of observation, the team looks up as if caught off guard by something. It is said that they are enacting their last moments of life before being buried alive. In some instances, the creek has been said to rise and become unexpectedly violent with no logical explanation. Submitted by Dominic C.
