TXK Ghost Tour evidence 2
Went on the Texarkana ghost walk on August 30th. Our phones were on airplane mode and we made sure weren't by anything that would make the EMF go off... we even stayed behind in the same spot to continue to see what was going on. Jeff is in the background guiding the tour and you hear him get a bit spooked right after the EMF goes off... of course, he isn't paying attention to what's going on because he had to entertain the guests.
This video took place in the alley way. They spoke about a Maria Dickson being seen the alley way, however,after asking who were were in contact with Adele responding... is she the one people are mistaken as Maria?
Adele was a hooker in, what is called Swamppoodle district. Adele was believed to be killed by Will Driver, who is also seen walking along the train tracks near where the 2nd part of this video takes place. It was traced back that he did kill Adele before he ran into the trainyard being killed and ran over by a train.
Claims report that Will Driver killed Adele Hains June 10 ,1907 with a razor blade. Slitting her throat and leaving her for dead, he runs into the trainyard, getting hit and cut in half by a train. He supposedly yelled the name Adele right before he died and those who still work there or pass by say they see half of a man laying beside the tracks with his mouth moving...

Texarkana: The Place That Forgot It Existed
This is a video of the presentation on the history of Texarkana given by historian John Tennison, MD, at the Regional History Museum in Texarkana, Texas, on August 13, 2016. In his talk Dr. Tennison delves into the fact that, for many decades, Texarkana has been celebrating the wrong date as its birthday or founding date. Dr. Tennison also debunks the myth that Texarkana was named to honor or make reference to Louisiana. Rather, as Dr. Tennison proves through documented evidence, Texarkana was named specifically to honor the states of Texas and Arkansas.
5 Most Bizarre Mysteries from Arkansas
5 Most Bizarre Mysteries from Arkansas
Home to the world championship of rotary tiller racing, scenic byways, large swaths of farmlands, acres upon acres of forestlands, the calm and serene rivers and streams – Arkansas definitely deserves to be called the Natural State. But the place has more than enough dark secrets and skeletons in the closet that could almost ruin its serene imagery.
Here are 5 of the most bizarre mysteries coming straight from the state of Arkansas.
5. Ghost Lights
The Arkansas state is brimming with stories of ghost hauntings and other paranormal phenomenon. These mysteries have been getting the attention of people from around the country, flocking in this side of the world to experience the horror themselves.
Two of the most common points of wonderment in Arkansas are these couple of ghostly orbs appearing in two separate parts of the state – the one in Gurdon and the other in Crossett.
4. Crop Circles
If one talks about crop circles, it can’t be helped to cite stories of extra-terrestrial beings coming to earth, or them sending a message to us.
There’s no question that crop circles are real. They can be observed, documented, studied and some skeptics would even go the length to replicate them.
3. The Mysterious Disappearance of Maud Crawford
It might be quite surprising to know that Arkansas was once a melting pot for mobsters in the first half of the 20th century. One of the most prominent mob figures to ever set foot in this beautiful state was Al Capone.
2. The Phantom Killer in Texarkana
In the spring of 1946, the small town of Texarkana was disturbed by a series of murders committed by what was then known as the “Phantom Killer.”
According to reports, the white-hooded killer would usually prey on young couples who escaped to secluded areas during night-time.
1. Dead Blackbirds
In the New Year of 2010, in Beebe, Arkansas, 5,000 blackbirds were seen slamming into buildings, electric poles, and trees. They all died instantly, falling to the ground like black hailstorms.
The town was shocked but later understood the incident as something to do with celebratory fireworks which spooked the birds.
