Today we are discussing Dead Woman's Crossing in Weatherford, OK.

Dead Woman's Crossing near Weatherford has a verifiable backstory.  This place exerts a paranormal allure over those in search of scares. Local lore says a baby sometimes can be heard crying from the banks of the creek below the overpass, and others have claimed to see orbs of light in the vicinity. Some even say they've heard wagon wheels and a woman calling out in the night. Whether these reports are the tall tales of bored teenagers or something more is debatable, but the gruesome and devastating murder that took place here is no matter of legend.

Cruise Route 66, and get your kicks in Weatherford. Blast off into Smithsonian-quality exhibits at the Stafford Air & Space Museum, which chronicles the career of its namesake Weatherford native and U.S. astronaut. At Southwestern Oklahoma State University's annual February Jazz Festival, feel the rhythm before stopping by the Weatherford Wind Energy Park, featuring landmark wind turbines that dot the I-40 landscape.

Also discussed Stafford Air and Space Museum, Route 66, Heartland Museum, Hamburger King, El Chico & Travelok.
