Haunted Houma Tunnel—Motorists See Ghosts
A tunnel in Louisiana? In Houma? Who knew? Not only is there a tunnel in Houma, LA—It's a haunted tunnel!
The Houma Tunnel is located on HWY 3040 and has been in operation for over 50 years. It crosses under the Intracoastal waterway in Houma. Its official name is Houma Intracoastal Waterway Tunnel and tons of people who live and drive in Houma believe it's haunted. Many won't even go through it as the Houma Tunnel has a reputation for being one of the most haunted places in Louisiana.
Louisiana has only three tunnels, but only one has a very dark past. So dark, that the state has considered replacing the Houma Tunnel with an overpass instead.
According to onlyinyourstate.com, the Houma tunnel has been the scene for a few "memorable accidents". Drivers claim they see the ghost of a motorist who died in one of those accidents.
The Houma Tunnel was built in 1961 and is 960 ft. in length. The next time you find yourself in it, try not to hit the ghosts.
