History
The Clifton Haunted Trail began in 2000, and continued uninterrupted until 06, when a powerful storm significantly damaged the main bridge. The trail recommenced in 09 after the bridge was restored in 07. COVID-19 brought the Trail to a halt for 3 years, but the community brought it back to life in 2022. Clifton, VA is a small civil-war era town in Fairfax County, originally known as Devereux Station in the 1800's.
