The Haunting of Miller Lake

Warning. This story still haunts the town forty years later. A ten year old boy

begged his parents to fish alone at Miller Lake. They finally said yes.

He packed his tackle box, grabbed his favorite rod, and promised to

be home before dark. When sunset came and went, his parents drove to the lake.

His bike was there. His tackle box sat open on the dock. His rod floated in the shallow water.

But he was gone. Search parties combed every inch for weeks. Divers found nothing. Not a shoe.

Not a trace. The lake was only eight feet deep. Here's what makes it worse.

Every year on that exact date, someone finds a small handprint on the foggy dock
