Haycock / Top Rock Trail Road - Nockamixion,Pennsylvania
Pa Rt.313 north(south from Quakertown, north from Doyelstown) turn right onto Rt.563 follow for a few miles then turn left onto Top Rock Trail. This turn is easy to miss! The road winds up this twisting hill through the countryside. Up on about the second bend, a pull off is on the side of the road that leads to a trail into the woods (some people was logging up in here). Following the trail up to the top of the hill reveals an amazing rock formation that has been used by Indians and supposedly a few cults that centered around animal torture. The Indian presence is documented and a historical fact, the cults are just here say. A feeling of disorientation is felt. At night "glowing" eyes/orbs of light can be seen in the woods. Also, you can hear the whelping of animals within the woods. There is definitely something here, and it will make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. There is a gigantic "table top" rock that is to the left of the main formation,underneath of this is a few small crawl through that give an overwhelming feeling of despair.
Kelly Road - Ohioville,Pennsylvania
Kelly Road, better known to the locals as Mystery Mile
, has been fraught with strange occurrences for decades. Docile animals would become violent and chase people away. Tempers flare. The forest seems to come alive at night, with a variety of noises and spirits reported. Rumors abound as to the grigin of these events, but no one knows for sure. All that is known is that after you pass the one mile mark of Kelly Road, the strange phenomena stop, with no explanation. A popular theory is that the land is cursed by Native Americans
who lost their homes when the 'white man' invaded.

St.Ignatius Loyola School - Reading,Pennsylvania
About few years ago around exam week, a young man stayed after school to study. When he was done studying he waited outside for his ride, but his mom never came. The phones were out and he was all-alone. The next day the police found his body in the library. It was mangled and gross. They never
said how exactly he died. They say if your there the phone will ring,
and no one will be there, things being written on walls, and people
even have heard and seen him running away. If you feel a cold spot,
remember this school doesn't have air conditioning! Some people say if
you say his name in the dark you will see glowing eyes. His name was
Jerry.

The furnaces - Sandy Lake,Pennsylvania
The furnaces used to be an old steel mill that burnt over 50 yrs. ago. Many of accidents happened taking many lives, so it is said to be haunted by the workers who died there. If you visit the furnaces during the winter you can see foot prints, shadows, and things leaping from tree to tree, over 100 yard distance. As you go down the hill it gets much colder, until you get directly into the furnaces, and then you feel it get warmer. Many of nights the restless spirits will chase you out and give you a real fright.

Green Man's Legend & Green Man's Tunnel - South Park,Pennsylvania
There is a legend of a man who was walking one of the deserted roads in South Park and he was struck by lightening. He died and is said to still walk the deserted country roads. This tunnel can be seen from the road and
is no longer in use. Years ago, an electrician was working on the
tunnel lights when he became electrocuted and died. He now haunts the
tunnel and surrounding area. It is said to have a green glow.
The disfigured face guy was Ray Robinson, who is the true "Green Man", not
some ghost. He lived near Koppel, Pennsylvania and died in 1985. Ray
had his face melted off by a ungrounded railroad bridge in 1917 (his
skin turned light green in places after the accident). The ghost in
South Park might glow green, but it should NOT be associated with the
true "Green Man".

Harmonyville Farm Bed & Breakfast - St. Peter's,Pennsylvania
"Person" seen standing outside of shower in "Summer Kitchen" cottage. Painting of woman in cottage was glaring and frowning at beginning of visit, and when visitors (friends of mine) left a day early, she appeared to then be smirking. At one point, one of the visitors couldn't get the door to the Summer Kitchen open to get out, and just as she was about to give up,it clicked and opened. They constantly felt as though the walls
were closing in, and did not realize that both of them were
experiencing the same things until they talked in the car on their way
out of there. General overall "creepy, claustrophobic" feeling about
the place.

Pennsylvania State University / Keller Dorm - State College,Pennsylvania
This dorm was the site of a student's suicide years ago. He hanged himself in a stairwell. Perhaps related to that,and perhaps not, there are a couple of rooms (rumors are that they're near his old room, but then again others say that's not so) that have had some freaky things happen. In the early 1990s, this acted up the most. A student was repeatedly locked out of this room, and one night ran out screaming because the bed was occupied by someone who wasn't there. When he came back with the Residential Assistant, the door was locked and they both heard the whole room being trashed by poltergeist activity.

Sun Rayz Tanning Salon - Wilson,Pennsylvania
This used to be a house where a family lived upstairs and one downstairs. Upon investigation into the history of the house it was discovered that the
family upstairs had a daughter whom was very ill and died a very
painful death at home in the attic. The attic still has remnants of a
mattress and curtains on the windows. Employees of the tanning salon
have reported strange occurrences. One employee placed a vacuum in a
closet that opened inwards, and when she went to get the vacuum it was
blocking the door. It was as if the ghost of the little girl were
playing a prank on her. Also, the door that leads to the poor, to which
no one has the key was found open. Late at night employees have
reported hearing the girl laugh and also eerie feelings of being
watched. Finally, during construction of the house to make it a tanning
salon, several tools went missing, and one morning the crew came in to
find the toilet in the new bathroom smashed. There was no evidence of a
forced entry and only one person had the key. This is a great place to
go to at night if you have the right connections!
