Brea Canyon Road

California · United States · Road

Two crosses stand together, then another further on, and then a headstone. At least four people have died on this road because it is so dark.

Brea Canyon Road in southern California is very dark, and at least four deaths are known of on it.

Driving through you pass two crosses standing next to each other. Further on there is a third. Further on again there is a headstone.

The three crosses mark people killed in car accidents on a road with no lighting.

Those markers are the entry. Roadside memorials are put up by families, in the place where it happened, and they are the most honest form of record in this whole archive: no legend, no embellishment, just a name at the exact spot.

What is reported at night follows from that, and it hardly needs a supernatural explanation to make the road worth treating carefully.

California has debated removing roadside memorials for safety reasons and has mostly left them alone.

The road is public.
