The Haunting
Shoe Tree is a reportedly haunted school or campus site in Highland, Michigan. Reports tied to the site usually focus on disembodied voices, screams, or footsteps and roadside encounters and vanishing figures.
Reported account from HauntTracker: Possibly debunked as there is a peacock farm across the road, which would explain the answering screams. - On the side of the road there's a gnarled tree around 70 feet tall. A kid walked by the tree everyday on his way home from school, and a couple bullies would stop him take his shoes and hang them on the tree so he could get them.
He was found dead one day behind the tree in a swamp. Now the tree his covered with shoes, and at midnight if you get out of your car and scream, he'll scream back for help. - October 2007 Update - The tree has been cut down.
If visiting, treat it as an active public or historic place and follow posted rules.
