Boy Scout lane is a haunted road in portage county, Wisconsin. The area is a hub of paranormal activity and attracts a lot of paranormal fanatics. The road is known as Boy Scout lane because the area adjoining the road was once owned by the Boy Scouts of America who wanted to build a scout camp there. The land surrounding boy scout lane is now privately owned and is out of limits for the general public.
According to several urban legends, during the 1960s a group of boy Scouts while camping there died mysteriously. Some stories claim that they were murdered by their scoutmaster while others suggest that they were murdered by their bus driver.

According to one version of the legend, all the scouts died when their bus crashed and caught fire, but one of the most famous legend is that all the scouts dissapeared in thin air without any trace except two boy scouts who escaped and got lost in the forest eventually dying of starvation.

It is believed that the ghosts of the boy scouts haunt the road and the forest surrounding it. People can hear them hiking through the woods or their lights can be seen at night as they seek help for their fellow scouts. Stories started circulating about visitors reportedly hearing the sound of footsteps, a strong feeling of bring watched, breaking branches from multiple directions, sightings of red or white lights bearing resemblance to swinging lanterns, ghostly buses or figures and childlike handprints on cars passing from there. A family was passing from there and saw what looked like a face on the window of their car, they sped up the car and moved out of there quickly. The road is considered to be one of the most haunted roads attracting paranormal investigators.

According to some people there are no records of any such deaths in the area and everything is just a hoax. But the truth is that the stories still persist and people keep on visiting the place in the hopes of catching some kind of paranormal activity.
