One of our first stops was the
Bauer House. Once home to Barbara Bauer and her family it is now
abandoned and padlocked. The truth is that Barbara was the victim of one
of Florida's worse serial killers. The Legend is that the family fled
the house after Barbara's body was found leaving dishes on the table and
clothes in the closet.
Orlando's Spook Hunters have picture of inside the house which prove
the house was seemingly abandoned in haste. |

Another interesting site was
the English Phone Booth (left) that mysteriously appeared on the street.
Supposedly during the day a woman can be seen in the booth making a call
despite the fact that the booth is screwed shut and there is no phone
The grave (right) is that
a 16 year old boy named Charles Dummett who while home from school was
out hunting and accidentally shot himself His father buried
the boy where he fell. the grave now is in the middle of a residential
street. |
