This road goes through two miles of woods, and comes to a dead end at what used to be a rock quarry. The reported ghosts said to roam here include are a man hit and killed by a train, a child who fell to his death from the nearby bluffs, Satan worshipers, a crazy old lady who yells at you from her house at the end of the road, and plenty of Native American spirits roaming the woods. Another eerie story about this location is how it got its nickname “Zombie Road.” The name came from a mysterious murderer known only as “The Zombie.” He would hide out in his shack as he waited for party goers and lovers to arrive there, and then would attack them. Many believe The Zombie still roams Lawler Ford Road, as reports of people vanishing mysteriously around the road aren’t uncommon.

it probably was haunted but they changed it into a fucking bike trail
I know this comment was made in 2017, but I just wanted to let y’all know that Zombie Trail is not the same thing as Zombie Road
99% sure the bike trail was named after Zombie Road due to them both being in relatively same area

Edit: Zombie Road is now a paved walking trail called Rock Hollow Greenway. Zombie Trail (the bike trail) intersects it a few times
I gotta tell ya there are a lot of strange things that happen around wood areas of Fenton and Maplewood usually near creeks and the rivers. Lots of ghost and nonhumans natives and settlers as well as modern ghost also strange disappearances. And creepy ass cults do wierd stuff.
I’ve driven down some roads and I can confirm. There are some weird ass stuff going on there
