My friend and I discovered this tunnel behind a public library in our neighborhood (others had discovered it too, counting all the graffiti). It's located in the right angle of where 2 creeks converge behind said library. It closely resembles a subway tunnel, though it is used for rain water run-off. On this particular day, we went farther in than we ever had before. You see, each tunnel is about 100yds then turns into another tunnel, but they're all connected. We made it about 500yds in with just a dinky flashlight when the water flooding our shoes became unbearable. Oh yeah, this tunnel runs under the neighborhood and surrounding roads (kinda cool, really). We stopped under a drainage grate which was the only source of light for a few hundred yards, to take a break at the back of the fifth tunnel. While we were standing there, we started to hear voices. They were extremely faint though, like they were coming rom the deepest recesses of the tunnel. We decided to head back after that. When we were almost home free in the second tunnel, we heard it again, closer now. We picked up the pace and made it out. We decided to stand around and see i anyone, or anything came out. We continued hearing the voice, couldn't tell what it was saying, but I said that it sounded like a small child. He said it sounded like a cat. We believed the latter. The noise continued while we were standing at the mouth of the tunnel. By now, it had to be at the back of the first length. So I yelled some profane phrases into the darkness. While we were laughing about 20 seconds later, We hear, "Hello? Is anyone in here?" When i tell you, i've never climbed a wall faster in my life than to get out of there! But the thing of it was, there was more than enough daylight to see to where it sounded like the voice was coming from, no one was there. It really spooked us. If anyone has any opinions, i want to hear them.
