Show notes

Santa Clarita, a city I lived in for three years, back in 2011 through 2014, is a city with many great tales.

Along with this responsibility, Evan also works in other locations around Santa Clarita, and has had experiences at different places such as Hertigae Junction and the William S. Hart Mansion. So naturally, Evan has had stories at these other locations which I saved for this episode.

S8E4: Scary Stories With My Cousin Prachelle May 31, 2023

Show notes

For this episode, I had the pleasure of interviewing my cousin, Prachelle, who I grew up very close to, only about two weeks apart from each other. And having posted all of these stories about Santa Clarita, such as Sand Canyon Road or Six Flags, my cousin Prachelle told me she had a really weird experience one time driving down a long, desolate road in San Francisquito Canyon towards Palmdale. Prachelle was about 17 years old when she and her friends decided to make the trip.

It was a two-lane road, a long empty road in the middle of the night. Nice houses filling the void on the sides of the road. It was just any ordinary night for Prachelle and her friends, to go on a late-night drive, and it was quite a long drive before Prachelle would notice headlights ahead. Mind you, it was midnight when this whole thing occurred, and not many cars just driving through the darkened roads leading to Palmdale at this time.

How could the only car spotted by Prachelle disappear out of nowhere? A two-lane road, surely she would have passed the car. Prachelle states the car didnt pull into a driveway, she would have surely noticed the car pull off into a side road. Is it possible this car did not exist?

After this story, I had to ask my cousin if she had more stories...

We will cover San Francisquito Canyon, Six Flags, Stockton, and Baker!

S8E2 - Mentryville (Feat. Evan Decker) May 18, 2023

Show notes

Mentryville is a ghost town in Santa Clarita, California, known for its historical significance and alleged paranormal activity. The town was established in 1876 as the state's first commercially viable oil well and remained prosperous until the 1920s when production began to slow down. By the early 1930s, its residents had started leaving the area. The town is rumored to be "haunted" by the spirits of its past residents, with the most prominent being Charles Alexander Mentry, the man who created the town in the first place. Mentry's spirit is said to be seen wandering the ruins of his estate, known as the "Mentryville House," and the vicinity. Strange noises, cold areas, and even the sightings of a ghostly apparition clothed in period attire have all been recorded by visitors. In the vicinity of the former schoolhouse, visitors have described seeing a ghostly presence of a young girl wearing a white dress. Some visitors have also reported feeling watched or followed while touring the site.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Evan Decker, who spoke out about his experiences while working on repairing, preserving, and restoring many of the aged buildings on the Mentryville site. Evan is the President of Mentryville California Inc and also runs the SCH History Moments instagram page.
