Editing Holcomb Woods (section)

== Haunting / Legend Summary ==
The central legend describes a school bus—typically said to be from a Catholic school—traveling down Holcomb Road when the driver either became angry or lost control. According to the story, the bus left the roadway, entered the woods, struck multiple small trees, and came to rest against a larger one. The driver reportedly died on impact, and varying accounts claim that the bus caught fire, killing all or some of the children.

Reported paranormal claims include:

* A driver’s face visible in the grain of the tree involved in the purported accident.
* A floating single headlight moving toward parked vehicles before disappearing upon reaching the tree.
* Radio interference, scrambled signals, and cell-phone failures when vehicles are parked facing Route 199 with headlights turned off.
* Red eyes reported deep in the woods.
* A white object or figure passing through the wooded area at night.
* Sensations of a parked vehicle being pushed.
* Stick-figure “people,” scattered clothing, dead animals, stone markings, and other unusual items claimed to be visible during the day.
* Apparitions of children standing among the trees.

Accounts also mention a junked school bus that remained in the woods for years, contributing to the spread of the legend.
