zoidburg Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 Stull Cemetery, and the abandoned church that rests next to it, is located in the tiny, nearly forgotten Kansas town of Stull. There is not much left of the tiny village, save for a few houses, the newer church and about twenty residents. However, the population of the place allegedly contains a number of residents that are from beyond this earth! In addition to its human inhabitants, the town is also home to a number of legends and strange tales that are linked to the crumbling old church and the overgrown cemetery that can be found atop Stull’s Emmanuel Hill. For years, stories of witchcraft, ghosts and supernatural happenings have surrounded the old graveyard. It is a place that some claim is one of the "seven gateways to hell." The legends say that these stories have been linked to Stull for more than 100 years, but none of them made it into print until the 1970's. In November 1974, an article appeared in the University of Kansas student newspaper that spoke of a number of strange occurrences in the Stull churchyard. According to the article, Stull was “haunted by legends of diabolical, supernatural happenings” and the legends asserted that the cemetery was one of the two places on earth where the devil appears in person two times each year. It said that the cemetery had been the source of many legends in the area, stories that had been told and re-told for over a century. The piece also went on to say that most students learned of Stull's diabolical reputation from their grand-parents and older individuals, but that many of them claimed first-hand encounters with things that could not explain. One student claimed to have been grabbed by the arm by something unseen, while others spoke of unexplained memory loss when visiting the place. Like many other locations of this type, the tales of devil worship and witchcraft there are many rumors surrounding this church such as even though the church has no roof no rain will fall in the church. this is wierd i live in kansas and not to far from this i thought i would share it with you...MUHAHAHAHAHAHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BongoBob Posted January 27, 2004 Share Posted January 27, 2004 That's kind of scary, I mean, the devil exists, so he does have to be somewhere. I just like to hold him ransom. The two days he goes there is when he escapes... >_> <_< Dang, time to make more requests to the underworld in exchange for the devil (j/k) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, This story is bogus. I and every man on the face of this earth has to deal with the devil everyday(unless you prefer the company of men of course ) If you haven't gotten it already, its women. Gotten love'em, but they can burn you bad. And if that's true, just call me encino man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
