New Independent Horror Film to be Based on New Jersey's Haunted Clinton Road

The 10-mile stretch of road in West Milford, New Jersey known as Clinton Road has been a well known spot for many years. The desolate roadway is mostly surrounded by woods and even has some haunting stories attached to it.

A new independent film is set to start filming this month, according to NBC New York, and is being directed by Steve Stanulis and will star Ice-T, Ace Young and Vincent Pastore.

One of the road's most popular stories involves a young boy who hands under the bridge at Dead Man's Curve. Known as "The Ghost Boy," he is said to return coins to you after you throw them into the water.

Another tale tells the story of an incident that took place in 1983 when a body was found off the side of the road by a passing cyclist. A coroner's exam revealed that it was the body of Daniel Deppener, and ice crystals had formed in blood vessels near his heart. Three years later, his killer was found, Richard Kuklinski, also known as "The Iceman."

With a ton of legends surrounding Clinton Road, it's no surprise that a horror film will be based off of it!
