Witches Gate, Wichita Falls
Witches Gate is associated with two locations: a burnt-out mansion that was once home to the Keith brothers and a guardrail where a robbery and murder occurred, leading to tales of ghosts and a bloody hook. The mansion, abandoned after a robbery and subsequent arson in 1975, is described as a decaying estate with stories of ghosts and murder, while the guardrail location involves a story of a man who killed a couple and a hook left at the scene. The Mansion Location (Keith Brothers' Estate): The home was built by George Keith and later owned by his sons, Jim and Kenneth. The mansion was abandoned in 1975 after a violent robbery and subsequent arson. Stories surround the burned-out remains, including tales of murder, ghosts, and the arson that destroyed the house. The Guardrail Location (Hatton and Hammond Roads): This is a different location featuring a guardrail that gives the appearance of driving straight through it. The story involves a man dressed in black who would approach cars, knock on the windows, and kill the young occupants when they opened their doors. A bloody hook was reportedly found on the railing the next day, and some people claim to see the young couple standing behind the railing when driving by at night.
