The Good Servant Orphanage
By Paul Dale Roberts, HPI Ghostwriter
Recently I received an email in which I am asked to investigate The Good Servant Orphanage in Vallejo off Hiddenbrooke Highway. I called the person who emailed me and the person, who I will call Mr. 2 told me that while he was driving past Hiddenbrooke he saw 3 children apparitions. The children apparitions appeared to be deformed. Legend has it that The Good Servant Orphanage was a place of child abuse by the employees of this orphanage. Some of these abused children died of neglect and abuse. Kathy and Tom, two of my investigators went down Hiddenbrooke Highway and found no paranormal activity alongside this roadway. David Mace did some research on this area and discovered that after the orphanage was torn down, a golf course was placed in that area. Later the golf course was gone and now it's a new development for homes. Therefore, we have no true place to investigate, since there are new homes in this area.
This is what Wikipedia has to say about the Orphanage:
"Never listed in any directories and located at the end of a desolate abandoned road, it remains one of the worst cases of child abuse ever recorded in American history. At the turn of the century, children of the Good Servant Orphanage and Continuation School hailed from all over the world, including the Appalachian Experiment Children. Twelve year old Luther, a third degree burn victim and the reluctant head of the children, leads small groups of his peers as they sneak out at night to find food, completely oblivious to how unforgiving the community can be of those who are "different." So hideous looking are the small night foragers that the locals soon change the name of the institution from its given moniker, "Good Servant Orphanage" (referring to Christ) to "Good Serpent Orphanage" (referring to the Devil). A deliberately set fire puts a violent end, once and for all, to the sufferings and horrors that were perpetuated upon the young innocents whom society abandoned to the custody of a wicked headmaster, one who posed as a benevolent Christian minister but, in truth, was the very opposite of that --- a malevolent Satanist; an evil man who, unfortunately, had the backing of the U.S. government in a twisted quid pro quo.
This historically accurate novel serves to explain much of the paranormal occurrences in the Vallejo area. To this day, the violent young souls of the Good Serpent Orphanage are often seen in the area of the old Borges Ranch, terrorizing anyone unfortunate enough to cross their paths after dark, making it one of the most haunted locales in northern California.
The exact location of this place is unknown but is in the Vallejo, Ca area."
Since there is no true place for us to investigate, this case is closed. Unless occupants of homes built in this area were to invite us to their home to investigate.
