Alum Rock Park ghost lore

Alum Rock Park, one of California's oldest municipal parks, is the subject of local ghost lore and is frequently listed in regional guides to haunted places. Hikers and visitors have reported hearing unexplained voices, footsteps, and sightings of fleeting figures near old trails and creeks; these accounts appear in local media and folklore collections. The stories are presented as anecdotal and have been part of the park's popular history rather than scientifically confirmed phenomena.
