Ghost House Trail
There are several claims of activity involving the Ghost House Trail. The first has to do with Maston Hutchinson’s daughter Mary. Mary’s loved ones claimed to hear her cries coming from the bedroom just hours after she had fallen victim to tuberculosis. People walking near the spot where the house used to stand claim to still hear Mary’s 
cries. A phantom dog has also been spotted on the trail. This claim dates back to the same night that Mary died. Her family and friends were traveling along the road leading to the where house once stood when a dog appeared out of the woods and crossed the path. Park goers claim to hear the panting of the dog coming from the woods. The final claim about this trail revolves around the family cemetery. Many claim that if you take a picture near the graves you can see the silhouettes of the long dead standing behind them in the picture. The name Ghost House Trail certainly seems to be a fitting name for this trail.
Indian Rock Trail
The trail leads past the spot where Peter Graves was ambushed, scalped and killed by
Native Americans. On many occasions, hikers have claimed to see the mutilated body of Peter walking around the area where he was brutally murdered.
Old Mill Trail
Norton Grist Mill marks the spot where a young girl was hung by her father. She had been accused of being a witch. Her sprit is said haunt the trail that leads to the mill. Not much else is known about this haunting.
The Man in the Woods
On many occasions, park visitors have seen a man walking in the woods far from the nearest trails. This man has been spotted by park rangers, who describe him as being middle-aged and wearing a red flannel shirt and gray work pants. He never speaks, just simply materializes and vanishes with out a trace. No one knows who this man is or if it is even paranormal.
