Suicide Road
This strange road off Route 3 in the Merritt Island Wildlife Refuge has somehow acquired the reputation of a suicide road. The road, which has no official name or number, was evidently built many decades ago and is only about a mile long with two or three turns before it reaches a dead end. Actually there seems to be no logical reason for this road to exist. According to the ghastly tale someone committed suicide here fifty-some years ago and you can still see the blood. I could find nothing concerning a suicide or death of any kind on this road. However, there are some red spots of glossy paint (or is it paint?) on the pavement which, at first glance looks just like blood and is definitely startling if you are looking for evidence of the suicide story.
