TEXTI am originally from Whiteland Indiana and out through the country towards Bargersville IN the is a place we call Podunk and it was a town that was deserted due to the Black Plague in the 1800`s the story goes that it was a small town and there was one big house with a cemetary at the bottom of the hill, the father of the family that lived in the house went mad from the plague and killed all of his family with an axe and then burned them in the fireplace, his wife four children and then hung himself I am not sure if the house or any of the town is still there because the old dirt road that took you to it has since grown over with grass and weeds and you would have to walk a little bit to get back there but I do no the old cemetary is still there and it has the members of the family that was killed in the house buried there. I will try to find the familys name out and get back with you guys. ;D

TEXTYou take US 31 to Whiteland Rd turn right go to the second four way stop turn left on Sawmill rd. follow the road around a bunch of curves then go for a mile and take a left on the gravel rd follow the gravel road and go down the hill and back up the hill you will see an old farm house with an old red barn you follow their driveway and it is also the path to Podunk be careful cause I don`t know if anyone lives in the farm house or what they would do if they see ya you should be able to follow the path the cemetary is at the bottom of a hill the house used to be on top.If you go let me know back on here if you find it.

yeah...i would definitely not recommend checking out podunk. the gravel road leads to private property, which is very clearly and very scarily marked with big signs that say, "STOP! DO NOT GO FURTHER!" so unless you want to be shot, do not visit. i'd like to go during the day to see if there is an alternate route to the cemetery that is supposedly there though...
