Very interesting
I lived there roughly 30+years ago and YES at night you can feel and see something
Personally been chased out of that place with friends back in high school
Yes me to by the cops😂
@@dangerlovee4061 😂😂 we got chased out by two trucks
I used to party around the foreest back in high school. I have two stories 1986 on.
It's real. I went there when I was 15 with my sister and some friends. We snuck out and took my mother's car and drove what felt like a long time but it only took us about 20 minutes. Some weird things happened that night but all I can remember is the asylum. It was so dark and the gate was huge and covered with vines. We heard noises but nothing spectacular happened. It was super creepy though.
I'm from the north county. This is just one place that's scary. The farther inland you go twords the mountains there are more areas that are infested with ghost and monsters lurking around. some places are kinda hard to get to.
I had a coffee shop in Escondido ca. CALLED THE LIBRARY CAFE. Diffently a very strange place.
"Questhaven, Questhaven let me in!" I remember years ago going up to the gate and saying that on Halloween. Scared the crap out of me. Of course I was just a teenager at the time and its was completely different then in the 1990's then it is out there today. I believe though that there are energies out there that are unexplained. I grew up in PQ. We had stories all over that area of weird happenings. The White Lady, Questhaven, The Dark Entity in PQ. Hanging Tree in Poway. Etc. all around those areas.
When everyone learns about this channel it's gonna blow up. Nothing but Quality stories on here.
That area of North county is weird I will say that for sure
Wow, what a trip. I also grew up in North County. I graduated from Vista in the 90s. Questhaven is the "retreat" or was. There was A LOT of weird things that went on out there.
Wow I grew up in Ramona and parents would drive "down the mountain" to go shopping in Escondido. In the 90s when i was a teenager we would hitch down to Mission Beach.
I grew up in Fallbrook! Graduated 99. We used to go here and party. 🤣 Stories. I live in Escondido now. I want to go back :)
I also went to vista high 😝
The only scary thing about Elfin forest now Are the track home developments and all the people that live there now. It is totally unrecognizable from 20 years ago.
I visited Harmony Grove when it was a Spiritual group. It was wonderful, peaceful and quiet. I loved it.
Never heard about the White Lady. I did subscribe.

Thank you so much, Paula! We appreciate you listening! 🖤
You guys ever been to Midget Village? It’s located in harmony grove too.
WHAT THE SHIT??! I used to live there w my parents in high school on Los Vientos Serenos 😅 Yes there (was? Elfin Forest is mostly developed now) waaas a creepy looking road, Questhaven Rd. where the trees were so dense they grew basically a tree-tunnel, and the rumors were well-known about it being haunted. I can confirm it definitely was an ominous stretch of two lanes for coastal North County San Diego, and we did smoke a lot of weed, drink & hook up with local girls in a spot on Questhaven called "the pit"- an actual pit with old couches, nearby beds 🤭 & a fire pit but I never saw or heard supernatural activity in the vicinity. Not to say some people didn't, it's just entertaining to hear about my little old neighborhood. Great Channel btw! 👍
Awesome channel 👍🏽👍🏽👀
I actually had an encounter out there in elfin forest. I was driving one night to go “talk” To the guardian of elfin forest out there. The guardian basically is a great big tree that looks like has a human sized fairy inside of it. On our way back out of elfin forest though we saw a car driving right towards us. I swerved but then the car swerved also. After that it seemed like the headlights and the car went right through us.
There’s a legend talking about the DevilDriver that use to drive cars off of the road back in there 40s. I don’t know you’re going to find any stories about that but I firmly believe in that one because it happened to me and my friends
Thanks for sharing your Elfin Forest story, Robert! We didn’t come across the Devil Driver in our research, but that’s what’s so interesting about local legends, the best ones are the dark secrets we all keep that you may never hear of. 🖤
Any relation to Tommy ruppert?
Happened to me as well
@@Francis_in_your_face no.
Where is this tree? I live in esco myself but can’t seem to find the place you’re talking about
Excellent narration!!! 👍😊
Awesome 👍🏽👍🏽🙂
So glad like so many times before, I just stumbled across a channel, clicked it by accident and was hooked the minute I heard the voice!!. Glad I keep clicking on accident or I would miss out on awesome channels like this one! Really enjoying the channel, looking forward to your content.
Glad you stumbled across us. We appreciate you watching.
@@BlackLettersPodcast my pleasure, look forward to watching the channel grow, it's going to do very well😊
Story telling is a talent I never had. Reading aloud in class for me was like singing everyone's favorite song off key, occasionally striking a few notes lol story telling is talent that deserves more credit than given.
Love your channel. I subscribed.
Thanks Christi! 🖤
I went there it was pitch black even more scary when our car stopped n it wouldn’t turn on I got out cuz I had to pee it’s was super dark pitch black couldn’t see anything but I heard like people were running in the forest ran back in the car a car was coming and they shouted gooo the cops are coming our car finally turn on we left!!!
I’m glad you sort of have a “bare-bones” way of narrating. I’m so sick of needless sound effects. Great work!
Right on! I listen to several different narrators on here and I’m happy this guy hasn’t enhanced his voice or over-done his narration!!! Really great job! I love it! Keep it up!!!
I am an Escondido local and drive through Harmony Grove/Elfin Forest on my way to work. It’s a beautiful scenic drive during the day. Super spooky at night!
I used too go out there drunk alone I lived right off Quince st and Escondido Blvd I don't know what led me their but It did and Right before you get to the gates My car turned off lol I was like screw it I grabbed a bottle from my trunk ..I had already called my ex husband Too come get me He was like wtf are you doing there so A lady comes out of no where older lady and says you in trouble ? I said kinda but my husband's on his way. She said ohh She seen my bottle and told me She could make the pain go away I just had too say yes and willingly agree too follow her into the woods ..My mind was intrigued But my Heart was beating like crazy .. I told her It's ok thank you., Are you a spiritual women? she smiled and said She was running late for her meeting ?? In the woods?? And then ok and then she said I'll see you around David shouldn't be far Now ?? 😭😭 I never told her my ex husbands name ...😵 I went back a few times and the only thing I seen was a guy in a robe like the hospitals give you and he was waving at cars lol Shit is weird There I have a Spiritual intuition like I'll hear stuff or see a person in st and then Find out they died .. Or smells

Here and subscribed because of your ad!
I live on the border of Escondido and San Marcos and there are many urban legends about that place. I have had a few creepy experiences including one possible paranormal encounter but the rest were just us being reckless teenagers and getting ourselves into trouble. If you're interested, please let me know and I will send them to you!
Please do, we’d love to hear your story! You can send it to us, or we can set up an interview and help you adapt your story to our format. Reach out to us at BlackLettersPodcast@gmail.com when you have the time! 🖤
I live in Escondido! I used to go here in High School in the 90s. Crazy stories!
Fly over the area in a plane or drone
Nice. The places mentioned are right at my back door. Fantastic.
Excellent voice and delivery of a story! Found this by accident .. subscribed. Thank you!
*Also, I was baptized Catholic (possibly the last time I attended church other than getting circ'd tmi 👍 and some weddings/ funerals...) -inside that old building when I was a baby. Harmony Grove is actually a pretty nice community between Encinitas, Rancho Santa Fe & Escondido. I grew up in Leucadia, Encinitas (old-Encinitas: a flaky beach town) & later my family moved to Elfin Forest when I was about 16. The local public high schools are La Costa High, San Dieguito Academy and closer to Del Mar, Torrey Pines High. I got expelled from Torrey Pines for truancy 😃 and somehow graduated from San Dieguito ("Sandy Ghetto") That entire area was a lot of fun in late 90's/ early 2000's
I litliterally just found your channel and am loving it. Kudos to you
I was out in elfin forest when visiting my cousin. My girl, my cousin, his friend and I were driving when my friend told me to stop the car because he had said he'd seen the white lady. I started laughing and telling him he was full of shit but the look on his face, I'll never forget. I did what he said and left the way we came in. He told me the story on the way out. I didn't see it so I'm still a skeptic. So idk
I'm always looking for youtubers that tell true scary stories. And voice means everything. Subbed.
I live in Escondido, I never dreamedI’d here it named in a creepy pasty lol or fallbrook
I lived in that area for a decade. My ex wife was from a nearby town and basically she and her friends inconspicuously avoided the area. I never really noticed it until I saw this video but looking back, yeah they totally avoided it. Kinda suspicious.
Subbed, that was so cool :)
These stories and how they’re told give me “Tales from the Crypt” and Hitchcock vibes, which are a personal favorite. Love love love
Sooooo interesting, sooooooo scary lol. I wonder what judge Judy is up to…
Cool story. I really like this. An actual ethnographic folk story. Or a folktale about a folklore story…I’m not surprised. Intelligently written! Sorry…that IS a compliment. The competition is not very fierce on YT. Just subscribed. Keep winning!
I remember being there and walking to the front gates that say questhaven but on the way there it was just an eerie feeling and the thing that scared us the most was that there was so many crows and they were right above us and anyone who knows that area knows the trees are very large almost like they are hanging over you but anyway we felt that the crows were following us on the way to the front of the gate that’s the furthest I was gonna go and no it wasn’t night time lol screwww that

I live on avenida del Diablo, just outside of harmony Grove, and have for 20 years. All the stories are nothing but folklore. There's hundreds of different versions. As a teenager, I investigated the forest & surrounding areas. I've even met with the operators of and visited the spiritual retreat. However, I'll be the 1st to say... "the place is scary as hell."
Thanks for sharing your perspective as a nearby resident and for adding to the conversation, D D! 🖤
Subbed 🏆
Very cool! I love White Lady, Insane Asylum stories. They love to pop up in "small towns". I am very curious about Elfin Forest and it's inhabitants now...
It's been redeveloped with homes and shopping unfortunately
yeah its not the same at all..the asylum was called Quest haven..it use to be scary as a teenager, i broke down frying acid..it was mind over matter..now its mostly new homes
Harmony Grove and elfin forest has been turned into a track home development. I grew up there, now, it is totally unrecognizable, all the old oak trees are gone.
New to your channel
Some of that story is bullshit, that place never had an open gate ...NEVER!! and I was in high school as well in the late 90's and I visited questhaven many times
Thanks for listening Thomas! The open gates in the story were at the Harmony Grove Spiritualist Association, not Questhaven. We’d love to hear about your journeys in Elfin Forest if you’d like to share.
Do you know if there is an abandoned Asylum out there? I'm a Paranormal Investigator/Researcher/Love anything abandoned. I've been out there alot as a teen, and boy could I tell you some stories👻☠️. I'm really glad I found you😊
The abandoned insane asylum appears to be more folklore than fact, Abram. We’re so thankful that you found us. 🖤 Let’s hear your Elfin Forest story!
I would love to hear your stories!!
I've been there plenty of times. Used to be a Looney Bin out there. I've seen the white lady with my friend.
