Rumor has it, once the women discovered that they were going to be condemned to death, some of them fled from the convent and ran across a field near present-day Dudley Road. The nuns were eventually captured and hanged in that field. One story states that in the 1950s, a young nun got lost while making her way back to the convent and was struck by a car on Dudley Road, and some claim that her spirit has been seen standing on the side of the road.

The legends go on to say that a nearby house was the place where the nuns would practice their magic. The house to this day is still standing, even though it has sunk into the ground up to the second-story windows. Reports claim that voices and strange odors emanate from this building at night.

Of course, it’s easy to let your imagination get the best of you when you’re driving down a spooky road in the middle of the night, but Drivers on Dudley Road have reported everything from strange lights in the surrounding fields, the sound of screams in the distance, and even full-body apparitions that walk across the road ahead of the vehicle.
