The Hanging Tree
There is an evil place in the backwoods of NJ where many people have died errr, murdered. The area is slowly being developed as it only recently has been paved. Slavery in the Americas ran from 1619 to 1863 and this area has seen a lot of lynchings.
The Hanging Tree (formerly known as the "Nigger Tree") was used in hundreds if not thousands of hangings. Yes, NJ was a free state, but not everyone went by the rules.
Cut to modern times. Slavery is illegal, people moved on and everyone has cellphones and a video game system. But the spirits of those long dead slaves still walk this earth.
When this "road" was "built", it was just a footpath from one town to the next by the side of the lake. then later on the carriages and even later cars went down the path. And the dirt road was formed around this "useful" tree. Recently this path was paved and the road still wraps around the HANGING TREE.
