  (#6) Ariana Grande Claims She Was Haunted After Visiting Stull Cemetery

  Not every ghost story about Stull Cemetery is from an unnamed source. In fact, one of the world's biggest pop stars has seen the region's demons firsthand. Ariana Grande wound up visiting Stull Cemetery during a scheduled performance in Kansas City and spoke to Complex about the bizarre things that happened.

   I felt this sick, overwhelming feeling of negativity over the whole car and we smelled sulfur, which is the sign of a demon, and there was a fly in the car randomly, which is another sign of a demon. I was like, 'This is scary, let’s leave.' I rolled down the window before we left and said, 'We apologize. We didn’t mean to disrupt your peace.' Then I took a picture and there are three super distinct faces in the picture - they’re faces of textbook demons.

  Ariana didn't have the picture of proof because she deleted it after she tried to send it to her manager and got an error message saying "This file can't be sent, it's 666 megabytes." She had kept the image in a folder, but claimed weird and terrifying things kept happening to her. The weird things she described are frankly, pretty terrifying.

  I was going to sleep about two weeks ago. I had just gotten off the phone and as soon as I closed my eyes I heard this really loud rumble right by my head. When I opened my eyes it stopped immediately, but when I closed my eyes it started again with whispers. Every time I closed my eyes I started seeing these really disturbing images with, like, red shapes. Then I opened my eyes and got back on the phone and was like, 'I’m really scared and I don’t want to go to bed tonight.' And then I scooched over to the left side of my bed, because that’s where the best service is in my room, and there was this massive black matter. I don’t know what it was... It was like a cloud of something black next to me.

  Grande says she cried and watched it move in front of her bed before falling asleep on the phone. The next night, her friend Tyler spent the night and witnessed the same thing.

  (#1) Stull Cemetery Is Thought To Be America's Most Evil Graveyard

  Stull Cemetery was created in the 1850s by German settlers and has been a hotbed for paranormal activity since. The property's over-the-top reputation includes everything from ghost and demon sightings to sacrificial ceremonies and occult rituals. The Devil himself even pencils in biannual visits.

  Apparently, paranormal occurrences date back to a mid-1800s slaying. A Kansas City Times article claims that a stable hand "[took out] the mayor to death in the cemetery’s old stone barn. Years later, the barn was converted into a church, which in turn was gutted by fire. A decaying wooden [cross] that still hangs from one wall is thought to sometimes turn upside-down when passersby step into the building at midnight..."

  That's apparently what happens when you build a church on top of Satan's front door, though it should be noted that Stull never had an official mayor. Still, these rumors don't come out of thin air. They're mostly tied to a large tree and the property's mysterious church, which some people say they've seen smoldering. Hell certainly isn't short on fire.

  According to the legend, the massive pine tree was used to exterminate condemned witches, including Satan's lover. This happened on the Spring Equinox (a culling of sorts). The tree remained a special spot for modern covens, which would visit the cemetery to pay respects to their fallen until the tree was torn out by caretakers in 1998.

  (#4) The Church Is In Topeka's 666 Zip Code, But That's Not The Only Thing That's Majorly Suspicious

  It could be that a number of coincidences made Stull Cemetery the perfect storm for dark and devilish rumors, or the coincidences aren't coincidences at all. Either way, the property has a number of highly suspicious features. The old, burned-down church is in Topeka's 666 zip code - because, honestly, where else would Satan live? The road leading up to the cemetery was allegedly named Devil's Way until 1905. If we're to believe that Satan returns twice a year to visit his baby mama witch, then the nearby gravestone that reads "Wittich" (almost "witch") is a huge alarm.

  (#9) Some Believe The Legend Was Invented By Kids At The University Of Kansas

  Stull's churchyard has long been thought to be a portal to Hell, but a University of Kansas student newspaper article was one of the first times the rumors were actually committed to print.

  In November 1974, an article claimed that the church grounds saw a number of strange, paranormal happenings and it was haunted by supernatural beings. The paper asserted that the Devil appeared two times a year in Stull Cemetery (apparently crawling out of the depths of Hell is just too long of a trip to pop in more than a couple times a year).

  Four years later, on March 20, 1978, over 150 people gathered at the cemetery waiting for the Devil to show up. They believed that people who passed would rise from the grave. Of course, none of this happened, either because the Devil was camera shy or the portal doesn't exist.

  In fact, most of the claims about Stull Cemetery haven't been investigated. There's a whole lack of proof, and according to a source, the pastor at the church across the street believes the entire legend was invented by students at the University of Kansas. Another source claims the legend was actually invented by a professor in the 1950s, which eventually led to the 1974 article.

  (#5) Rain Won't Fall Inside The Church - It Is Always Bone Dry

  Before it was bulldozed, the church at Stull Cemetery had been missing its roof since the 1920s. Because it had no roof, the entire inside of the church was subject to flooding when it rained - except strangely enough, it actually never flooded at all. It wasn't even wet.

  According to urban legend, hundreds of witnesses said rain would not fall inside of the church. It would fall around the church and cemetery, but never inside. It was bone dry, even if it poured.

  (#7) The Pope Once Rerouted A Flight To Avoid Flying Over The Cemetery

  It's hard to tell which legends are true and false, but once the Vatican is involved, you know something is suspicious. Reportedly, Pope John Paul II declared Stull Cemetery evil in 1993 or 1995 (reports have conflicting information).

  Allegedly, the Pope was meant to make a public appearance in Colorado when he redirected his private flight to avoid the airspace above Stull because he refused to fly over unholy ground.
