Altoona - Sinking valley - Fort Roberdeau - Legend says a guard was guarding the fort when an Indian attacked and killed him they also found the body of a young boy and the boys dog. the fort is farther down the road and off to the right. This is a reconstructed fort of the original. Road to fort there are 2 fields on each side of the raod on the right side of the road there are telephone poles sit at the 3rd pole at dark and look straight ahead there a guard of the fort was killed and he still patrols to this day. The guard is a black shadow. Also you can hear a young child’s laughter and dog barking. The dog is a white ball of fog that appears out of no where.

Altoona - Wapsononock Mountain - Beulah Road - This legend is a cross between the spectral hitchhiker stories you have heard before and the sort of "Resurrection Mary" type tales familiar to the Chicago area. the ghost of the white lady still walks at night. For historical background there used to be a hotel at the top of the Wopsononock Mountain that was a fairly common getaway for people in Altoona. The Wopsononock hotel and famous lookout burned in the early part of the 20th century and was never rebuilt. In fact, at one time it was serviced by a narrow gauge railroad know as the "Alley Popper" although that has nothing to do with this tale. The road heading up to the Wopsy Lookout (as it is known hereabouts) is now Juniata Gap road in Altoona. This road is a treacherous one bearing a curve known as the "Devil's Elbow" which has been the scene of many accidents. Apparently in the early part of the century a couple was married and was heading to the hotel at the lookout for their honeymoon. I know nothing of the father chasing them which is related to the Ebensburg tale you have given. The legend goes that they were both from Altoona and were heading up the road leading to the hotel when the carriage went over the edge rounding the Devil's Elbow. Both were apparently killed but the body of the husband was never recovered. Since then travelers on this road have encountered the specter of a woman in white, sometimes seen to be carrying a candle, who apparently is looking for something. Variations on the tale have her waylaying young men and looking them over to see if they are her husband, or hitching rides with young men headed for the top of the mountain and then disappearing near the Devil's Elbow. Apparently this spirit has also been seen on the road leading up the mountain where the lookout can be accessed from the other direction, Buckhorn Mountain, and she is also known as the "White Lady of the Buckhorn" as well as the "White Lady of Wopsononock". The site of the old hotel now is littered with television and radio towers and is still a sort of "lover's lane" spot for a lot of folks. Apparently some of the technicians at the towers have reported seeing her, but the most recent account (late 1990's) involved a man who offered her a ride. She apparently got into the car and he could not see her in the rear view mirror but could see her when he turned around. She said nothing to him and disappeared at the Devil's Elbow. Much like Resurrection Mary, it is a difficult tale to dispute since it has occurred so often to so many people over such a long stretch of time. Although the historical details are sketchy! No one knows who she was or when the accident actually took place. If you ever get a chance to get to this area take a trip on either road and you may get a chance to run into her.

The living residents of a house heard a party going on downstairs. Wishing to investigate, they head down stairs. This house had a sealed up staircase (It had its own room).

Beaver - Brighton Township - Mudlick Hollow - It is said that in the 1800s tragedy struck when a young newlywed couple was riding their horse drawn buggy through the hollow on their way home after the wedding.

The bride died from a broken neck and the groom was pinned under a horse (who had become lame) and slowly died next to his new bride.

The Molly Maguires were a group of disgruntled miners in the 1870's who used violence as a means to bring about change in the corrupt mining industry. Several men were accused, arrested, and eventually hanged at the prison for being Molly Maguires. On the eve of his execution, a man who proclaimed his innocence ran his hand along the dirty floor of his cell and made an impression of his hand on the wall, claiming the impression would always remain as proof of his innocence. The next day, he was hung and the hand print was washed away. Three days later, the print reappeared. As legend has it, the wall has been repeatedly washed and painted, but the hand print always returns. The wall was supposedly even ripped down and re-plastered, but the hand print returned yet again. The prison is now opened to tourist, but the cell with the hand print is off limits. Visitors can still view the print through the cell door, though.

The halls are on the same floor as the chapel. Students have claimed to see furniture move in those rooms. There is 1 old rocking horse in particular that will ALWAYS MOVE ON ITS OWN when the room is occupied for too long. Because of the hostile vibe felt in that room, people believe that is the spirit of the murdering orphan, who also died there due to a "freak" accident. There are also reports of students seeing two children late at night, running, fighting, and screaming through those halls. The 2nd story is the tale of a nun who taught at the orphanage. She hung herself in the bell tower and haunts it to this day. Many times the bell will ring unexpectedly and late at night a light will go on and off. Unlike the modern light that is suppose to be up there (which seems to always mysteriously short out), it looks like a candle. Students who have tried to get up there have been spooked severely.

While the rest of the colored panes of glass in the windows have retained their color the faces of the saints have turned black. Inside the church the walls have peeled and cracked, the pews are filthy with bird droppings and dead birds, yet the area around the altar and the altar itself, which is draped a 100 year old altar cloth from Ireland, is in pristine condition.

Lebanon County - Indiantown Gap - Hotel Road - In the current state game lands just North West of Indiantown Gap, by Hawk Watch Mnt. Used to be the site of a summer hotel for the rich in the early 1800's.  Through its years it didn't make much money, the owners closed down the hotel for it to later be bought and remade into a boyscout camp.  The hotel suffered a horrifying fire and the majority of the residents inside of it burned to death.  Just up the hill from the hotel is an old abandoned railroad bed.  Along this railroad bed, from the 1600's to late 1800's early 1900's, sat a multitude of mine towns.  One such mine town, about 3 miles from the hotel, was named Raush Gap.  It had a population of about 1,000 people.  This mine town house a family who's only job was to switch the tracks for the trains.  The man in the house fell ill and died, and during a time of morning his wife forgot to switch the tracks.  This lead to a horrific train accident killing upwards of 250 people.  When the wreck was all cleaned up and the bodies buried in a, yet undiscovered because its hidden in the woods behind the current standing cemetery, mass grave.  The towns people turned on the woman for not doing her job and were on their way to lynch the woman.  To their dismay they did not find her, at least not alive, the woman had thrown herself in front of a moving train killing her instantly.  To this day the part of the tracks where the wreck happened you get a heavy feeling of pain on your chest, it is hard to breath, it is always about 20 - 30 degrees cooler than anywhere else.  You can hear the train whistle, and it is stated that you will see a figure of a woman holding a lantern, the lady with the lantern, roaming the tracks, seemingly looking for the train she once lost.  And if she sees you she will rush towards you and if she passes through you, you will die in a car accident that will look like you were hit by a train.

Also in and around the same area(Indiantown Gap),it's said that The "Headless Horseman" rides through the valley looking for a new head. - March 2005 Correction: Earlier submitted that you see blue eyes in the trees at the end of the cemetery, supposedly the "Blue-Eyed Six" were hung there for murdering a man. The cemetery at this church is said to be haunted by the Blue-Eyed Six, a gang that murdered a local man and whose members were all subsequently hung in the cemetery as punishment(a play has been written about this event and was possibly copyrighted). This information is NOT TRUE. The Blue Eyed Six were never related in any way to the church or it's cemetery. Although all these things occured within this area more or less. They never were hung in the cemetery or buried there, nor is it believed they would have any reason to haunt this place as they have no worldy connections. The Blue eyed six were all caught and tried in the Lebanon County Court House, hung in thecourtyard of the Lebanon County prison except Josiah Hummel who died in Prison, and all were buried seperatly on their individual homesteads. Many in the area where brought up to believe the Moonshine Church and the entire wooded area of Indiantown Gap was haunted by what is known as THE RED DEVIL! The submitter of the correction is also submitting a personal experience and will be posted when we get a link.

On the anniversary of her death there was indeed a great flood, burying the entire town and people in it alive. if you park your car near the gates at night, a train going across the only way out, blocking you in for an hours worth of demon faces in your windows, howling screeching sounds, corpses trying to get at you, and the like. (Remember, in actuality the corpses are still underwater in the town, never recovered). You can actually walk thru this place (beware, there are wild dog packs throughout) and good luck not getting lost. If the waters low enough, you can see the tops of chimneys and houses during the day. Pay close attention to what you hear; sounds even in the daytime are unexplainable and for added fun, try the cemetery off to the left for gravesites of those who died before the flood. Not recommended for ANY child, the place is dangerous. And don't drive thru there, you will get fined at least $500.For more information check out the Westmoreland Historical Association, and look up Livermore. It's all there in black and white. And yes, the "Livermore Cemetery" sign is the original that was used in the black and white version of Night of the Living Dead.

One of the groundskeepers apparently had nowhere to go when Fletcher's was shutdown, so he thought he'd make a statement to the world by hanging himself in the barn facing the window on the second floor. Working there I noticed the scariest things imaginable would happen. For one thing (and they had this on tape one night while we were making a commercial for the terror barn) the radio (which was located at the other side of the barn in the "Michael Meyer's Room") was changing stations rapid ply and shutting off and turning on while we are all meeting in the wizard room (on the other side of the barn, nowhere near Michael Meyers).The second thing, if you lay on the torture rack and look up you can see a man who walks the rafters above. The other thing has to do withhe sound of cowboy boots following you as you walk around. The last thing is above all the scariest, a piercing scream while we were closing one night. The second haunting of the Norwin Elks is located in the bar/dining area. Apparently in the attic there is a specter who you cannot make out, but she/he is there and watches you. Some say that it is a little girl and others say it's a little boy. The third haunting is in the basement of the Norwin Elks. If you walk down there you can hear a dog barking for hours on end, but the Norwin Elks don't have any dogs. And sometimes you see a maintenance man down there who tells you that the pipes of the furnace need a cleaning, and when you ask them what's wrong he vanishes. There are other reports of a man in the bar who never leaves and when you finally force him outside he vanishes after he leaves the door. But no one can say for certain what happened to any of these ghosts. The only ghost that we know for sure is the Fletcher's Groundskeeper in the terror barn who hung himself.

Middletown / Lima - Fair Acres Geriatric Center - This county home was established in Media, Pennsylvania in 1807, where it remained until 1857. It then moved to its present location in Lima on the 210-acre Abraham Pennell Farm on Middletown Road. The farm was called "Fair Acres", and as a county facility it retained this name. During the early years in Lima, the County facility often cared for entire families as well as individuals in a self-contained environment. A part of this facility was the operation of a farm used for the production of food items for people within the facility. The farming operation was discontinued in 1967 when the facility underwent a transition from a partially residential community to a health care facility and directed its emphasis to elderly residents of Delaware County who required medical and nursing care. With this change, "farm" was dropped from the name, and in 1978 the institution became the Fair Acres Geriatric Center. The Center now consists of eighteen buildings located on a 210-acre tract in Lima, Pennsylvania. Five of these are resident buildings, containing both skilled and intermediate care nursing units with total accommodations for over 900 residents.  One building in particular, Building 4, now has many separate offices and a main hallway shared by each office.  This building was originally a big, single room that held hundreds of hospital beds in rows in the late 1800's.

The barn behind the building which did stand for a time after the house was torn down has also suffered the same fate. The only structure left standing on the field is an old outhouse looking building. This is on toad road in York County. Get permission before exploring this area.

York - York College - Strange occurrences have been reported in Campbell Hall. the suites and rooms are, as well as an aggressive presence in the kitchen. March 2008 Update – A former student in the late 1990s, reports a math professor shot himself in his office in the annex between Campbell Hall and the Business/Comp. Science building. The student states he did not know the professor, but knew students that attended his classes, everyone interviewed who had him said he was kind of a "Beautiful Mind" type. He smoked heavily and although he left no suicide note of which they are aware, it's assumed that he found out he had incurable lung cancer. His office was vacant for about two semesters, then they gave the office to a new professor. As to any hauntings tied directly to this are unknown.

York - Abandoned York Prison/George St. - A very tall old brick building. People have said that as you reach the second floor where the first cellblock is located 2 or 3 ghosts follow you as you progress up the stairs. You can also look down at the cells and see a red glow as though from a cigarette. Many people are said to have committed suicide and have been murdered in this prison. - June 2008 Update: you are no longer able to enter the building. The door in the back, which was the way to enter the building, has been sealed with cinderblocks.

York Haven - Kunkle's Mansion - The story behind it is there was a rich doctor and his family living there long ago, and a jealous murder murdered him and his wife in the bathtub, and both their kids on the swing set out back. Rumor has it that when you walk up to the mansion, you are supposed to feel the murderer follow you until you set foot on the mansion, then you're safe. To physically get to the mansion, you must park along a creek and walk about 25 minutes through the woods and 2 open fields. The house sits in the middle of the woods, is 3 stories high and totally ransacked. - December Update: Kunkel's Mansion is off limits now, not that it ever wasn't. But there are now signs posted at the fields stating that they are patrolled. We have recieved conflicting reports on this haunted place. Around the area, adifferent submitter reports it is a gaming area. regardless, it may be best to stay away. entering a building with out permission is tresspassing, even when it seems it does not belong to anyone.
