STREET OF NO RETURN

THERE IS A STREET NEAR 26 MILE ROAD THAT HAS BEEN NAMED THE STREET
OF NO RETURN. IT IS OUT IN THE COUNTRY AND ALL AROUND IT THE
SCENERY IS BEAUTIFUL AND GREEN BUT WHEN YOU TURN DOWN THIS STREET
EVERYTHING IS DEAD, THERE IS NO WILDLIFE AROUND AND NO TREES ETC.
IF YOU GO DOWN THIS STREET FAR ENOUGH YOU WILL NEVER RETURN.

Submitter comment: JEAN HEARD OF THIS STREET WHILE IN HIGH SCHOOL; NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW
WHAT HAPPENS TO THE PEOPLE, BUT SHE DOES RECALL AN INSTANCE THAT
SOMEONE SHE KNEW IN SCHOOL WENT DOWN WITH A COUPLE OF GUYS AND NO
ONE EVER FOUND THEM AFTER THAT.
