The Story

The courthouse clock is the center of a revenge legend collected by HauntedPlaces.org. An innocent man supposedly condemned there vowed that his accusers would know no peace. The tale says the clock repeatedly loses the correct time despite adjustments, while footsteps return near the tower on the anniversary of his death.
