Campers allege to have seen the apparition of a young girl who seems to have drowned in the lake. Her skin appears bloated and blue, and her whole body is sopping wet.

Not far from Brigham Young University, Rock Canyon is a beautiful place for students and locals to relax. However, come nightfall the idyllic scene is replace by chilling paranormal activity.

Those who hike the trail at night have reported hearing footsteps treading behind them. When they turn, however, no one is there.

Visitors also claim to have seen the apparition of a man standing high up on one of the rocky cliffs. It's said he stares unblinkingly at those who pass before running straight down at an impossible angle along the face of the cliff.

Just before he makes contact with the ground, he disappears into thin air.

Samuel F. Lee built a home for his family in 1873. However, just 40 years later in 1913, the property was converted into a home for the elderly.

Today, half of it still acts as a nursing home. The other half serves as a haunted attraction.

Those who walk the grounds report the spirit of a little girl named Jessica who follows around after people. Others say a former patient, Wes, still haunts the halls.

While some claim to have seen the ghost of Samuel F. Lee himself, many report a dark force that lingers behind in an abandoned portion of the hospital.

The Rio Grande Depot is known for two notable ghosts.

The first is known as The Purple Lady, and legend has it that she perished chasing after an engagement ring tossed onto the train tracks. She can most commonly be found in the women's bathroom, but can occasionally be spotted in other areas of the station.

As you might expect, her apparition is decked out in a purple sequin gown, though her hair is usually askew. Those who encounter her say that in her presence they feel inexplicable rage.

The other spirit on the grounds is that of a man said to have died during the depot's tunnel construction. His spirit lingers behind in the building's basement.

He has a fondness for harmless pranks. He's known to switch lights on and off and move items around.
