Louisiana has only three tunnels, but only one has a very dark past. So dark, that the state has considered replacing the Houma Tunnel with an overpass instead.

According to onlyinyourstate.com, the Houma tunnel has been the scene for a few "memorable accidents". Drivers claim they see the ghost of a motorist who died in one of those accidents.
