Madira Bickel Mound - Real Terra Ceia Haunt

Madira Bickel Mound is a state park that was the first Native American location to be designated a “State Archaeological Site” in all of Florida. Occupation here goes back to around the 1st century AD. The mound is about 20 feet high and as wide as 170 feet and is made of shells, sand and general refuse. The park received its name from Madira Bickel. Her and Karl Bickel owned the land around the area and donated it in 1948 to the state of Florida. There have been no known ghost sightings at the location but many have reported feeling an "otherwordly presence" when they visit. Feelings of being followed and watched have been reported as well.
