At hidden pond off Greely I had a friend that went to the park almost everyday. A couple months ago (around February 2014) he committed suicide at his house. A month after multiple people reported seeing him in the woods.

Comment by Mike: Really? We've heard a lot of stories about ghosts in that area. What was your friend's name? I'm doing research on the area and have documented several strange sightings in the area. Please email me at Harrypotter1971 @live. Com. Thanks!.

I recently was doing the field work toward by thesis on whether or not Liverworts (an aquatic zone plant) can tolerate heavy siltation in flooding at Hidden Pond. While there early one morning, with my field partners (girlfriend Mimi and my dog), we became aware of being watched. It was woman, in 19th century clothing, she just stood and watched us, then walked away, or rather faded. Being scientist, I don't believe in ghosts, or anything, however, I cannot explain this. My girlfriend Mimi says that the place has a reputation for the paranormal. I just think it was a case of poor light refraction.
