This Creepy Ghost Town In Kansas Is The Stuff Nightmares Are Made Of
What is it about ghost towns that is so fascinating? Is it the dated homes and businesses? The deafening silence? Maybe it’s the potential of a paranormal encounter? Whatever it is, we as humans seem to be drawn to it and cannot get enough. That being said, there is one abandoned town in Kansas that is the pièce de résistance when it comes to ghost towns with its abandoned cement factory, deserted homes, and the spirit of Bohr, a former United Kansas Portland Cement employee who allegedly met his demise after falling into a vat of concrete. His body was never recovered and is rumored to still be haunting the southeast town of Le Hunt.

As you can see, the old cement plant, which closed its doors after the Great Depression, has been reclaimed by nature and is difficult to find due to towering trees and overgrown shrubs.
