Tri-County Truck Stop

the early 1900’s, it grew to being the world’s largest roadside restaurant in its heyday. The current building, built in 1950 after the previous building burnt to the ground in the late 1940’s, became the Tri-County Restaurant and Truck Stop in 1970 after “The Diamonds” relocated to be nearer to the newly opened Interstate Highway. Before closing its doors to the public in September of 2006, employees and customers alike were experiencing a plethora of paranormal activity. Such experiences and reports included full-bodied apparitions, eerie shadow figures, objects levitating from one table to another, kitchen appliances turned off and on, people touched by unseen forces, children reporting seeing a bloody monster on the stairway, disembodied voices and so much more. Paranormal Task Force (formerly Missouri Paranormal Research) investigations of 2006 yielded some of the most phenomenal visual and audible captures to date, validating both employee and customer experiences at this spine-chilling location.
