Buffalo Ridge is in Hamilton County in Cincinnati, Ohio. There are many stories associated with Buffalo Ridge that have been told for decades. One story is that a young boy was killed in a hit and run accident. It's said that the boy's mangled body left a blood stain in the road that has never disappeared. It's said that a woman was killed while trying on her wedding dress and her lost soul roams Buffalo Ridge searching for her head. Other stories include a car load of people during a gang initiation crashed on Buffalo Ridge and you can hear a car blaring music and a car running up and down the hills. It's said you can hear screams and the crash of a car. There is an old abandoned house on Buffalo Ridge that supposedly, lights have been seen inside the house even though nobody has live there for decades. Legend has it, that if you go up the driveway, you can see a witch standing in the window. Could this be the headless bride?

Near Buffalo Ridge is a place called Munchkinland. Now, the legend behind Munchkinland is that it's a tiny village with tiny houses and "little people." At the road-side in this small village is huge bells. It's been said that if you go there and ring the bell, the "little people will come out and throw stones at you. It's said that everything there is little. Little houses, little cars and yes, little people.

When I was a young child living in Cincinnati, I was often a tag-a-long to my older brother and sister. My brother is eleven years older, and my sister ten years older than me. I remember one occasion, I was with them and a car load of their friends. We took a cruise up to Munchkinland. I'll admit, I saw some strange looking tiny cars that almost looked circus-like. We never did see any "little people" though. We then headed up to Buffalo Ridge. This is what really stands out in my mind, quite vividly actually. The only thing I can recall is alot of chaos, the next thing I know we are speeding up and down the hills with everybody panicking.

I'm originally from there and believe you. My sister used to take me there and scare me by locking all the car doors and watching out for munchkins with pitchforks. Never did see any but I plan on taking my teenage daughter there on our next visit.
