We all know Kansans love their horror stories, don’t we? If you’ve lived in Kansas for a little while, you know we’ve got no shortage of haunted houses, libraries, rivers, bridges, cemeteries, and even an asylum. However, this particular stretch of road has notoriously taken lives and been a general danger to kids who speed. Don’t stick around this stretch of road or you’ll be sorry! What started as a little fun, led to loss of life. “The Happy Seven” are said to be the spirits that haunt this stretch of road south of this small Kansas town.

A little town called Gypsum, Kansas is where our story is from today. Though it may seem unsuspecting these days, the roads leading out of it aren't to be messed with.
