About this listen
Late at night, the highways across Iowa stretch for miles through open farmland. Small towns appear suddenly in the darkness. A few streetlights. A quiet main street. A gas station still open.
From the outside, Iowa looks peaceful.
But every place has stories.
In this episode of The Midnight Drive, we cross into Iowa after dark and explore several of the state’s strangest legends and mysteries.
Along the way we visit:
• The Black Angel of Oakland Cemetery in Iowa City • The ghost known as Millie at Simpson College • The strange winged cryptid called the Van Meter Visitor • The eerie legends surrounding the Villisca house
Some of these stories are local folklore passed down through generations. Others are historical events that left behind strange experiences and unanswered questions.
Topics covered in this episode:
Black Angel Iowa City
Simpson College ghost Millie
Van Meter Visitor cryptid
Villisca house haunting
As the Midnight Drive continues across America, every state has its own stories waiting along the roadside.
Tonight… we start with Iowa.
