Springlawn Farm (Albino Farm)

If you grew up in or around Springfield, Missouri, there's a good chance that you've heard of the "Albino Farm." Stories run rampant about the place. Some people say that an albino caretaker haunts the premises, scaring off would-be trespassers. Others say that it was an underground hospital where experiments were conducted on albinos. I even once heard that it was the home of an albino family that used to spraypaint the lawn bright orange. No, I'm not kidding. In reality, it was a farm called Springlawn with a much different story to tell.
