Mankato Bike Path Ghosts - Mankato, MN
"Legend has it that people walking along the Mankato Bike Path in west Mankato have met a man with long hair and a beard, a woman in a peasant dress, and a black Labrador Retriever. They are very friendly and talk with the people in heavy German accents. They usually ask for directions to the Dam Store in Rapidan, MN. When they do get directions they have been heard to say, "It seems as if we have been walking forever!" Many have said that as the two approach, the air gets markedly colder. Brian and Lorna Dunne and their Labrador Retriever Otto were killed by robbers on this path in 1918 during the great flu epidemic as they tried to escape from the Mankato Pest home. They were believed to be on their way to take refuge at Lorna's parents home near the Rapidan Dam Store!"
