Clinton Road

Clinton Road is an old road in West Milford. In the early 1900s there was a castle on the land out this way. In 1917 when the owner died the land and house was sold to the City of Newark. After some time a fire destroyed what was left of the property and now Clinton Road is known as one of the more eerie and unsettling places in NJ.

There are many stories surrounding Clinton Road. One of the more popular tales is that of a ghost boy summoned by throwing coins into the water. The story goes that if you throw coins into the water under the bridge by dead man's curve, you will awaken the ghost boy and he will throw them back at you.


There are other legends as well and they can be found in the attached link below.
