The Aggregator Tail — Names Without Carriers

The submission indexes · printed at the size they stand

What this entry is: beyond the tellings above stands a tail of South Bend hauntings that exist only as user submissions to the haunted-places indexes — no book, no newspaper, no tour and no named witness behind them. They are printed together, at the size they stand, because the boundary of the documented lore is itself a fact of the record. The Shadowlands Haunted Places Index's South Bend submissions, beyond the entries treated above, are these. At the old trail and the bridge over Juday Creek, "you will see an old train engineer standing with his lantern. The ghost supposedly committed suicide." At Council Oak Cemetery, "sounds of a horse taking off through the cemetery when walked through at night." At Lincoln Elementary School, flickering lights and self-running sinks, on the submitted premise that the school "used to be a old hospital for kids" — a premise no source reached supports. On "Old Roller Coaster Rd (Sycamore Rd)," phantom cars chase travelers. At Potato Creek State Park, in the county's southwest, the submission reports the sounds of a crying child at the fishing pier and asserts that "many children have drowned here swimming at the beach" — an assertion this record does not carry, no drowning toll at the park being documented in any source reached. Each of these is a single anonymous paragraph, undated and unwitnessed; none is asserted here, and none is elaborated.

The directory's hotel: HauntedPlaces.org adds one more South Bend address of its own: the airport-corridor hotel it lists as the Holiday Inn–Magnuson Grand, where "pilots and flight attendants staying at this hotel have reported seeing a ghostly flight attendant in the mirror and sitting on the edge of their beds," on a rumor, the directory says, that "she was killed by a pilot at the hotel." No such death appears in any source reached, no newspaper or court record of it has been located, and the entry stands in the directory without a carrier — printed here at that size, as this section's clearest specimen of a haunting manufactured by the list itself: an anonymous workforce, a violent rumor, and a bed's edge, at an address that sells rooms by the airport.
