ST. LOUIS COUNTY – It’s a sad, yet somewhat true story that lurks down a secluded North County road near the Missouri river.
“The Bubblehead Family” called a house at the end of Carrico Road in Florissant their home. The family, according to urban legend, were alleged victims of government chemical testing and had enlarged heads.
Despite this, other sources believe the family had a son who had hydrocephalus, which is the buildup of fluid in the brain leading to an enlarged or deformed head.
The family allegedly kept their son at home at all times and eventually moved out of the home.
Still, this urban legend lingers, as visitors to the road have seen several no-trespassing signs, and some have been allegedly chased by strange figures lurking in the surrounding wooded areas.
