2 reported haunted locations found near Canton, OH.

Name	Description
Hercules Engine Factory	A physical presence has been felt by many who enter the buildings that date to the 1800's. A hand on the shoulder or someone pulling at you from behind. Strange smoky apparitions have been seen in the same buildings. Voices are often heard when nobody is around. "Cold spots" also move around in the old factory.
Stark County	Hercules Engine Plant - In the old buildings of the Hercules Engine Plant visitors and workers have been grabbed or pushed in the stairwell that leads to what used to be an army training facility in World War I and II. Part of the plant was built in 1845 and the basement of these buildings has energy orbs and a strange haze that travels through the rooms.
