The Midnight Paper

Dear reader, have you heard of The Dead Children's Playground? It sits opposite Huntsville's oldest cemetery.

Legend dictates that the spirits of children who were buried in the cemetery like to play there when night falls.

Members of the living claim to have observed orbs of light floating around the parks various apparatuses, swings move seemingly alone, lights glide down slides and circle roundabouts, then there are the giggles some have heard on the breeze.

There were many murders that happened in the 1960's, predominantly of children, their bodies are rumored to have been found in the area that now belongs to the playground.

That's all for now dear reader.

Description:

The Dead Children's Playground is a Location-Type Oddity in the shape of a playground in a public park across from Huntsville's oldest cemetery. It possesses the anomalous quality of being "haunted" by the spirits of the deceased children who are buried in the cemetery, who play on it every night when darkness falls.

It's unknown at this time whether the playground itself posses the anomalous quality of attracting the spirits, or whether its proximity to the cemetery is what is causing the perpetual haunting. There is also the possibility, as the article states, that the playground attained its anomalous qualities due to the bodies of several murdered children having been found in the area that would later become the playground.

The spirits have been described by locals as being "orbs of light" that float "around the park's various apparatuses." It seems these spirits are simply enjoying the playground's facilities, the same way living children would.

Indeed, it seems this Oddity is benign, though it is unknown whether disturbing the spirits during their playtime would anger them. However, since they seem to behave much like regular children do, there is probably no real physical danger to anyone that interrupts them.
