The Haunting
Martha Chapel Cemetery and Bowden Road, better known as Demon's Road, form one of Huntsville's most repeated cemetery-road legends, with stories of red eyes, child figures, shadowy pursuers, occult rumors, and strange roadside sounds.
Local history writing ties Martha Chapel to an 1843 Methodist conference and says the Martha name likely comes from Martha Palmer, whose burial helped name the chapel/cemetery. The satanic-panic and demon-road layers appear to be later folklore attached to an older rural cemetery and road.
Reported activity: Reports range from red eyes and child figures to people hearing only ordinary woods sounds. A notable share of discussion is about access, local residents, and whether visitors are amplifying the legend by going there at night; keep the entry respectful and discourage trespass or disturbance.
