Ghost Elephants – Forest Park, IL

Back in 1918, a train carrying multiple circus cars crashed. Tragically, many people and animals were killed in the accident, including prized circus elephants. Locals believe that the spirits of the elephants remain near the cemetery and show up late at night. Apparently, a ghost elephant isn't very weird to the folks of Forest Park.
