______________
The 'Dead Children’s Playground' urban legend is most often linked to the small play area beside Maple Hill Cemetery in Huntsville, Alabama. A place where grief and suggestion overlap. Visitors report swings moving on their own, childlike voices emitting from the dark, and odd lights appearing in photographs, but is there any truth to it?
In this chapter, Urban Legends examines what can be verified, what is only claimed, and how a modern haunt grows from older histories and the psychology of play.
