Old Greenhouse Road is very close to Katy, Texas. It is in a very residential area, with a few wooded areas and fields. According to very dangerous local legend, the ghost of an old woman is supposed to appear on the bridge if you turn off your car lights as the road turns and then approach the bridge very slowly.
We advise you in the strongest possible terms: Do NOT do that. It’s not only illegal, but puts you in significant danger. As the road turns sharply, you cannot see oncoming traffic as you approach the bridge. If a car has stopped or is driving especially slowly, it could get hit… easily.
We investigated this location at dusk. Frankly, it doesn’t feel haunted there. I detected nothing anomalous with the compass.
However, we do have a few odd digital photos from the area next to the bridge:
Standing at the same spot, I took another photo to the right of the previous shot:
The area around the bridge may be haunted. The “old woman” story is such a classic urban legend, I don’t take it seriously. And, the bridge doesn’t feel haunted.
My film photos were generally unremarkable, except for two pictures showing possible ectoplasm. (See our other Houston articles.)
These pictures aren’t normal, so there may be hauntings around this bridge. Because of the dangerous traffic there, we did no further investigations at the site. It’s a busy location, so there’s no way to drive slowly at the bridge. Even on foot, this is not a site that interests us further.
If you research there, be very mindful of the traffic and poor visibility at that turn in the road.
