Clinton Road Reviews
West Milford, NJ 07480
I went with my friends down this road, we couldn’t get to the end fast enough before I was out of the car throwing up and shaking like a leaf… just to get back in the car to get back to where we needed to go, I was begging for us to take another route but to no avail, my friends thought I was joking. We barely made it back before I leapt from the car once more and started throwing up again, crying and begging for whatever was making me feel like I was going to die to stop… and saying I will never come back here again. As soon as we drove away I started to feel better. Something out there set off every alarm bell in my body. Not for the faint of heart or those who have sensitivity to the strange and unusual. Take a cruise down Clinton road if you dare!!

Absolutely no cell service on the road. It seems that it goes on forever. We also saw a guy hitchhiking at the side of the road with a flashlight.

A truck, that looked like it had the headlights of an Excursion, came out of no where. Was looking behind us the whole time to watch if this were to happen. He sped up and stayed on us the whole 10 miles. He literally tried to run us off the road. He didn't succeed of course because we weren't gunna let a truck be that much of an asshole to us so we slowed down and waited for him to pass but he didn't. By the end of the road the truck disappeared right before our very eyes. This haunt is no joke.

The so-called Druid Temple on Clinton Road is the Clinton Iron Furnace. It was built in 1826 to smelt iron from locally mined ore. It is listed on the State and National Registers of Historic Places. As a nearly 200 year old historic site it is endangered by neglect and vandalism. It has no supernatural associations.

my neighbor, the cyclist, found the dead body! My other neighbor, a few years before found a dead body under some leaves in the watershed along Davenport Rd. Guess whose name he used as a reference!
You might also die waiting for the two lights to change in order to cross Rte 23 S to access Clinton Rd., the longest light (5 min) in NJ.

I drive on this road at least 5-10 times a week, and most of the time I don't see anything unusual other than animals and a green jeep who decided to try the head light trick and almost ran me over. But it wasn't a ghost just an immature boy. One time I do think I saw a girl with dark wet hair in a white night gown looking outfit with her face covers by her hair, but I haven't seen it since. Also one night I saw vertical fog and I'm convinced it was a spirit because fog is usually horizontal. I also got my finger sliced open by skipping a rock by the dam but that's it.

She died in a head on collision around 10pm 4 years ago. That street changed the lives of many people in motor vehicle accidents in the area due to lack of signs and lights.

In HS (circa early 1990s we used to tribe up there in a huge group and "camp". We made fires, drank beers and just hung out until the sun came up. I remember literally walking further into the woods alone sometimes to pee! I'm afraid of my own shadow today. Don't know how I ever did that back then!

what makes clinton road scary is not the fabricated stories that people like to make up and try to create but rather the sharp turns, and frequent fog which allow people's imaginations to produce whatever they think is there. So if you go you will probably find exactly what you were expecting to find and a few ghost cars to boot because we all love driving down the road without our headlights.

My grandpa built his house on lake lookover. A lot of my family grew up there I really miss it. Where you're talking about is old Clinton rd. we used to party there when we were teenagers there was also a bird sanctuary there. We always said there was a yeti there I really miss being there. My one friend's house was said to be built on an Indian burial ground her mom did witness some odd things

I live on that road, and I'm one of the assholes to turns my lights off as a prank when I'm behind someone on a dark night; there are no ghost cars, we just love scaring people who believe in the myths.
Also, that "Druid Temple" is one of two enormous furnaces used in the revolutionary war to smelt iron. You can ask literally anyone in town and they will tell you this.
The KKK and Witch stories are true though. There are some weird people in this town.

grew up in WM , so friends and I thoughout my life have played on Clinton Rd. I have experienced it all. the dissappearing headlights that chase you down the road. I've seen the ghostly female apparitions in the abandoned house. I've been down to the ruins. Played quarters the boy on dead mans. I even have had the misfortune of one night when I accidentally turned onto Clinton Rd , driving alone one night, to run into a KKK bonFire in the road coming around the corner of dead man's curve, I almost ran off the road trying not to hit them.

I was there about 10 years ago. I was local to Annie's road but that was a bust. So as any young adventurous thrill seeking teenagers, my 5 friends and I headed there in two vehicles. It was a complete cell dead zone. We had no way to let the others in the car in front of us that we wanted to turn around. Both of our cars passed the bridge. Shortly after that we decided to turn around. On our way back over the bridge (I kid you not) a cement road block was moved into our lane. We almost crashed into it. After being freaked out by that, once we got back to the beginning of the road, approaching the highway, there was a 1960's style ambulance where blaring head lights sitting off the side of the road. It was impossible to see in, and we weren't stopping to check it out! I've never been back nor do I ever plan to.
