Legend has it that a young boy’s host haunts the road by the river, eternally waiting for passersby to cast their coins into the water.

According to Weird NJ, it’s called Ghost Boy Bridge, where legend has it that if someone puts a quarter in the middle of the road at one of the bridges over Clinton Brook, better known as Dead Man’s Curve, it will supposedly be returned by the ghost of a boy who drowned while either swimming of falling off the edge of the bridge.

Some people have claimed to have seen a ghost. Others say the apparition pushes people into the water if they look over the bridge's side.

Weird NJ readers have also seen other ghosts, and not just the ghost boy, along Clinton Road.

According to the list, Florida’s Interstate 4 ranks as the second most haunted road. Locals say the road is not only haunted but cursed. It contains a dead zone where cell phone and radio signals drop out completely. In this zone, drivers have reported apparitions and a floating ball of light.

Wisconsin’s Bray Road ranks as the third most haunted in the U.S. This road is home to the “Beast of Bray Road,” a werewolf-like creature that prowls the road.
