https://twitter.com/hisruin/status/1274141611170070534 #BlackTownsMatter - The movie #Poltergeist may have been inspired by the #BlackHopeCemetery. A slave cemetery outside of #HoustonTX that a subdivision was built on after the all black community burned down. http://heathershade.blogspot.com/2009/11/curse-of-black-hope.html There was a #MadeForTVMovie about the #Haunting involving the subdivision called #BlackHopeHorror: https://youtube.com/watch?v=3oxqpe0SzRA It was based off of a book by the same name. The story was even featured on #UnsolvedMysteries: https://youtube.com/watch?v=wcRO__guSM8 The community of #BlackHope has been forgotten in all of this. White washed by Hollywood. The land was once part of the McKinney plantation. http://terrireid.com/archives/1715 Once freed, the former Texas slaves built a thriving community. It continued for decades before being destroyed by fire. I have found no report to how the fire happened. #Juneteenth #Poltergeist #CrosbyTX #BlackHopeCemetery #BlackHopeHorror #BlackHopeCurse #BlackHope (at Crosby, Texas) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBoz5eyFwlb/?igshid=8ds1b4fvhv5v
