There is a stone house located just off the Trans Canada highway about 3 miles east of Indian Head known as "the screaming house". This house can easily be identified because it's two windows facing the tracks have been closed off. This home was built by a family in the 1800's. According to the legend they say that one of the families children wandered onto the tracks and as the mother looked out the window she watched her child get killed by a passing train. The mother was so upset by this tragedy that her husband blocked  up the window's facing the tracks hoping to help cope with the event. It is said that the mother still relives this terrible tragedy and if stand in the downstairs room in the late evening when a train is going by on the tracks you can hear her screams. Of course this is just a local legend and no one knows what really happened for sure. But people continue to visit the home and some claim to feel the presence of a woman and children.

When driving through the small town of St.Louis be sure to check out the abandoned rail line, for you may see more than you bargained for. The abandoned rail line where the tracks used to be placed is home to phantom lights. These lights are seen every night and has attracted people for many years. They say that the light is that of a train, a ghost train. Others have seen a lanterns being held by the spirit of a conductor walking down the line.  There have been so many stories told of this place but all are the same, ghost train and phantom conductor. Some people say that the lights are just headlights from the highway. But if this is true, why do so many people see the exact same thing?  Check it out if your nearby.
