The Secret (treasure hunt) by Byron Preiss

Anybody on here ever spend time trying to figure out any of these? Seems like New Orleans and Houston are both included for sure. Lots of in depth discussions point to Herman Park in Houston. The New Orleans one is up for debate.
For those of you that don't know, a publisher buried treasure chests (really not worth much more about the hunt) and wrote a book with poems/pictures to guide the way. Only cities that have been solved are Chicago, Cleveland, and recently Boston.

Do I need to bring a metal detector or a shovel or both?

Just a shovel. But they are buried in Public parks so good luck not getting arrested. Dude in Boston was convinced it was under home plate in a park, but was afraid of digging it up. Ultimately they redid the park and somebody hit it with the excavator, proving him right.

The guy who said that he videotaped it underground or whatever? Cause that seems really bizarre to do and not dig it up.

The band Styx prophesied this.

The answer is in the details

Its sitting on top or around this bridge in Armstrong Park. The bridge looks like that clock.

The clock is based on the grandfather clock in hotel monteleone

Yeah, there is a lot of great info on message boards. Seems like if you could have free reign to dig up a park, that people would have already found several of these.

The boy in the face is from the McDonough statue

The hand of the clock also very much resembles the path of Lafayette square

The boy in the clock is from Peter Pan. Pan spelled backwards is nap. The hand belongs to a corpse. A clock shows time. A cemetery is where people go when their time runs out. Start digging!

I keep accidentally finding them when I’m out searching for pokemon.

Expedition Unknown has had several episodes dedicated to The Secret. They recently found the one in Boston!
Here is their first episode on the topic.

Yeah. The Boston one was great

Seems like it might be hard to find some of these after so many years. Some of the parks have been remodeled and trees moved.
