A Few Pennsylvania Ghostly Tales from Visitors

After reading The Legend of the White Lady of Whopsy Mountain a lady wrote to me to tell me about another legend called The Lady in White. Here is a copy of her email:

Hi, I am native to PA. I lived most of my childhood in Vintondale. I wanted to let you know that they too have their own version of the Lady In White. She "haunts" the road from Vintondale to Twin Rocks. I really don't know state routes-sorry. She appears in cars with woman. You don't even choose to pick her up. She just appears. You do not feel frightened. She smiles with sympathy at you. Many local men are frightened of her. She has been known to, in many ways, scare that crap out of them. The men all seem to be not so nice individuals. Rage issues, drinking, as the old timers would say good for nothings. It seems the woman are being given a sort of omen by her presence. Most do seem to befall some bad happening through a man at a later date (but really not that uncommon...given the very nature of men and women. Vintondale is a very creepy place. Lots of haunted tales and sightings at the old Furnace. If you are interested I can share more. I just wanted to be sure that the Third Lady In White gets her nod too.

A lady by the name of Stephanie read about the Central Pennsylvania Haunted Houses I lived in over the years, she wrote to me to tell me about a haunted house she just moved into. Here's a copy of her email.

Hi I just moved here from New York. I live in Altoona and I think that the house next door to me is haunted. I'd hear sounds coming from the house even though no one lives there. The neighbors told me that the owner's mother passed away some years ago and he never sold the old house. He uses it for storage and for when he goes hunting in the winter. Also I think the house that I live in now might be haunted, the man who lived here before committed suicide here, that's what a neighbor told me. I do here sounds coming from the basement at night. Do you know of any particular houses that are haunted here in Altoona.? I have always been interested in ghosts, I think that some people who pass away and did not leave in a peaceful way still remain between this world and heaven.

Thanks, love your website !! Stefanie

Kim wrote to me excited to join a ghost hunters group after reading about the Ghost Hunt at the Altoona Railroaders Museum.

I'd like to join a local group of ghost hunters. Are there any in Altoona? I've had past experiences in my life and was told when I was younger that I can pick up energy that others can't. In some ways I'm honored to be able to "feel" what others don't but at times I'm scared of it, lol , Kim
