The haunted lake. This lake is fine also, however some people have drowned in it, its know for sucking people under due to the ground slinging underneath. Legend says there used to be a big rollercoaster in the middle of the lake back in the day that never got removed and collapsed into the lake and sank to the bottom of it, and there it still lies untill this day.
