Awesome video, I love the Greenwood legends! I'm a Decatur resident and something has always intrigued, or maybe bugged me, about the legend of the Greenwood bride. The monument you focused on, in fact the same monument that is always shown in relation to this legend, clearly gives the dates 1842 - 1930. 87 years is quite old to be considered a "young bride!" The person she is buried next to, presumably her husband, lived 1841 -1875! If she did in fact throw herself into the Sangamon to join her husband in death, she waited 55 years to do it! I know you are far from the first person to connect this monument to the legend of the bride, and I still love the story! I just wish we could find a stone that would make the story a bit more believable. I was also hoping, given the time you devoted to the stories of the Civil War soldiers, you would have explored the devoted section of the cemetery, with the rows of stones dedicated to "Unknown U.S. Soldiers." The same section, in the southwest corner of the cemetery, is also the location of the mass grave where the Confederate prisoners were buried. Please do not take my comments as criticisms, I just hope someday you will make a part 2 to this video! Thanks

Thank you. I noticed the dates actually after I filmed it. I missed quite a bit here and would love to get back to explore it more in depth. I’m sure there will be a part 2 that shows more and maybe can connect more legends to monuments. 😀

We have a legend where I live in the UK of a young Lady of the Manor who was murdered as she rushed home galloping pell mell on her horse to her husband after visiting her lover...... lovely story except the lady in question was actually 87 when she died!! I say you go girl....

When the settlers arrived and started building they just built over graves rather than move them. There are streets built over mass graves Decatur is very haunted.

Jesus said that "as a man thinketh so is he", meaning you are as you think. Therefore, one who pacts with the devil will ultimately fall because of the thinking that embeds itself into the mind and soul. The devil's mission is to drag one down to hell. No mystery there.

Some of these stories you've talked in this video are inaccurate. The alleged "Indian burial mound" was at the center of the downtown area of Decatur. Also the "Devil's chair" is located at a very old cemetery east of Decatur and out in a rural area. "Hell's Hollow" is also in a different place closer to Lincoln Park where people can drive their cars through the area. Greenwood is a strange place to be sure.

I swear everything is over top a Indian burial ground or normal grave yard. It's like anywhere you walk there is a burial ground of some type.

The so called "Devil's Chair" is nonsense, One's Soul (the person) belongs Only to the Creator God Jehovah, Satan cannot obtain by bargaining with a human what belongs to God, Satan would like human's to believe that, but as Christ said Satan is the father of the lie and the first murderer on earth. and his end is coming soon.

Hollywood would like a word with you. Also by your logic all souls belong to god, does that mean Hitler is in heaven? And why does hell exist if all souls belong to god?
