Split Rock Quarry

The Haunting

Split Rock, a hazardous munitions plant, unexpectedly exploded in 1918, brutally killing more than 50 men. Today, the Quarry is nothing but rock with an old piece of machinery left called the Crusher. Visitors have reported the sound of footsteps, voices in the distance, and the revving of the Crusher's engine—which hasn't run since the horrific blast. Take a visit anytime to the quarry and see for yourself what remains.

WARNING –  Split Rock Quarry is an abandoned location in the woods. Should you decide to visit, it will be at your own risk. We strongly encourage you to not venture in alone. Make sure to wear appropriate footwear for the hike to the location.
