Fall is in full swing by the time Halloween comes. The day is a celebration of things that go bump in the night, ghosts and spirits who come out to play. It is also all about trick-or-treating, carving pumpkins, visiting haunted attractions, telling scary stories and watching horror films. There is no doubt that the Summit City is ready to help you get your scream on!

Haunted Places

Fort Wayne has a long history with people having called this home for more than two centuries. And according to ghost hunters, some of its residents have never left. Here is a look at the history of the 12 most haunted places in the Summit City.

12 JEHL’S PARK (SWINGERS GRAVE): Jehl’s Park is believed to be where a young girl who died while using the swings. Witnesses claim that if you visit the park at night and are on the swings when the clock strikes midnight you will fall off. The twisted part of this story is although you may assume you have fallen off, some claim the girl actually there pushing you off.

11 DEVIL’S HOLLOW: If the name Devils Hallow isn’t scary enough, the legend attached with it is not for the faint of heart. As the story goes a witch lived in a house on top of a hill. People who believed this woman to be a witch burned the house to the ground and all that remains is the chimney. The legend claims the witch perished in the fire and is still in the area. Over the years, the police have gone to the site many times as many people like to use the spot to perform rituals and sacrifices. Some say that at times the witch appears and chases people she considers trespassing.

10 MAIN STREET: Ghost hunters exploring the haunted places in Fort Wayne cannot help but visit Main Street. It is said to be haunted by the ghost of a woman in white. She has a flowing white gown and appears to walk down the street. That alone is enough to cause concern; but, the woman in continues walking until she reaches the St. Marys Bridge where she jumps. People have been so convinced the woman is real that they contact the police, but no body is ever found.

9 BRUICK ROAD: For the curious, Bruick Road is a road that seems to go nowhere. It is also home to some unusual lights. People who have traveled down Bruick Road state they can see white and colored lights that look like orbs that vanish as you move closer to them.

8 WHITLEY JAIL (AKA, COLUMBIA CITY JAIL): One of the creepiest haunted places near Fort Wayne is the Old Whitley Jail (Columbia City Jail). Established in 1875, the Whitley Jail is a haunted house during Halloween. Ghost hunters make their way to the old jail in hopes of encountering the ghost of Charles Butler. Butler was sentenced to death by hanging; but, due to complications during the hanging, he ended up strangling for 10 minutes. His ghost is believed to haunt the jail. Witnesses have heard laughter, voices and footsteps. But Butler isn’t alone, the ghost of an unknown woman and the ghost of a former sheriff are also believed to haunt the jail.

7 EMBASSY THEATRE: Dating back to 1928, the Embassy Theatre is considered a landmark in the city. With many closures, renovations and re-openings, entertainment is not the only thing the Embassy Theatre offers its patrons. People have seen a grey apparition roaming the halls on numerous occasions. Some people believe the ghost is of a long-deceased director. Along with that apparition some people see and hear what they can only assume is an older woman. Other strange things in the theatre include odd smells, random cold spots and lights spontaneously turning off and on.

6 BROOKSIDE MANSION (FORMERLY BASS MANSION): John H. Bass was a wealthy man; he had a mansion built that included an artificial lake. The home stood abandoned for a number of years, before a local university decided to renovate it and make it a library. There are stories that Bass continues to reside in his home. If you are in the library, Bass will help you find the book you desire. Sounds innocent enough except Bass will literally throw the book at you.

5 LINDENWOOD CEMETERY: The cemetery was originally founded in 1859. In the more than 175-acres the cemetery covers, it has over 70,000 gravesites. Lindenwood cemetery is a fascinating cemetery due to its size, which ranks among the biggest in the nation. Avid ghost hunters visit in hopes of seeing the ghost of a politician from the Victorian-era. The man wears a top hat and walks with a cane around the cemetery in the early morning.

4 LINCOLN BANK TOWER: Opening its doors in 1930, Lincoln Bank Tower was once the tallest skyscraper in Fort Wayne. The building remains in use today. Visitors have the opportunity to visit what is considered one of the city’s most haunted places. There are reports that every floor is haunted by at least one ghost. The top floor remains the home of the ghost of a man who reportedly jumped to his death, while a female ghost on the fourth floor is said to scream at people.

3 LUTHERAN HOSPITAL: Old hospitals always seem to have stories of hauntings; the Lutheran Hospital, opened in 1904, is definitely one of these hospitals. Witnesses and paranormal investigators encounter some interesting activity at the hospital. There is the ghost of a man who resides on its fourth floor. But the more unusual story is with the hospital’s basement. People claim if you walk down the stairs to the basement in the dark, you will never reach the bottom.

2 MASONIC TEMPLE: When the Masonic Temple was built in 1926 it was meant to be the meeting place for the fraternity members. The building which stands 10 stories high, served the members of the Masonic fraternity for decades. People claim to have seen and heard the ghost of a young man who causes a great deal of mischief, slamming doors and switching lights on and off.

1 WELLS STREET BRIDGE: This bridge was built in 1884; it is considered a historic landmark. According to countless stories, the Wells Street Bridge is not only a piece of history, but is also among the most haunted places in Indiana. Unlike the ghosts at other haunted destinations, the bridge’s ghost is a dog. Over the years, many people who have ridden their bikes across the bridge at night during the winter claim to see the dog and hear him barking. People advise when crossing the bridge, if you see a dog, don’t stop.

Carved to the Extreme

As part of FrightNight, master sculptor Chad Hartson and his team from Ice Creations will be on-hand demonstrating their extreme pumpkin carving techniques, as well as displaying an array of their creations.

Hartson started doing food art  –  carving and creating fruit and vegetable displays and making ice sculptures – while in culinary school. He found he not only enjoyed the creativity, but that he was also really good at it.

So, when he graduated, he started his ice sculpture business; but, when television shows like Halloween Wars became popular, people started requesting pumpkin carvings. For this year’s Halloween season, Hartson is booked to participate in more than 20 events and festivals.

Hartson said that when it comes to his pumpkin creations, what he does for FrightNight is on the small side – meaning the size of the pumpkins he carves. “We do an annual display in Dayton, Ohio where we carve 40 pumpkins that are each 500-pounds,” he said. To date, his biggest carving was using over 100 pumpkins to make a dragon for at the Denver Botanic Gardens.

Hartson’s technique creates 3D pumpkins where he carves the outside of the pumpkin to create faces and/or images rather than cutting through the pumpkin. We asked this master carver to give us some more details about his work and some tips for DIY carvers.

FWM: When selecting a pumpkin to carve what do you look for?
CH: We look for abnormalities. We want pumpkins that have knots, big cracks or deformities. We don’t want the pretty round pumpkins you find in the store. We go through the fields specifically looking for the pumpkins that aren’t pretty.

FWM: Where do you get ideas for your carvings?
CH: We let the pumpkins inspire us. We’ll see something in the pumpkin’s abnormality that will spark our creativity. It is very difficult to get ideas from a perfectly round pumpkin.

FWM: How do you keep your pumpkin carvings looking fresh?
CH: We spray them daily with a solution of water and vinegar to preserve them. For DIY carvers, Hartson suggested also spraying your creations with this solution – one part water to 10 parts vinegar.

FWM: What carvings tools do you use?
CH: We use clay tools instead of knives. We also use spoons and scrapers to scrape away the flesh on the pumpkin’s exterior. For the DIY carver, Hartson said that you should get some clay tools and try 3D type of carving by scraping away at the pumpkin’s flesh. He also said it is important to think about the exterior of the pumpkin as clay, where you take things away in order to make something. For the typical Jack-O-Lantern type of pumpkin, he suggested using a jigsaw blade as it works better than other tools on the market. He mounts the blade to a wooden handle and uses it as a cutter. He said for a Jack-O-Lantern it is important to scrape down the pumpkin’s insides so it is easier to cut.

FWM: Where do you get your pumpkins?
CH: We work with several Amish growers. We usually go into the fields after they have farmed all the perfect looking pumpkins to pick out the pumpkins we like. For our 500-pound pumpkins, we have a grower who specifically grows for us; we usually get 60 – 80 of this special variety of pumpkin called Prizewinner Pumpkins that each weigh between 150 to 500 pounds.

FWM: What do you like better, carving pumpkins or creating ice sculptures?
CH: I like pumpkins because we have such a limited season where we can do carvings. There is no artificial way to create pumpkins beyond when they are naturally available.
