Boston Township in Summit County, Ohio is known by another name, Helltown, thanks to legends and folklore about so-called hauntings and satanic activity in the area. The township was founded in 1806, and since that time the National Park Service has taken some abandoned areas through eminent domain. Find more folklore and history here and here.
