BRIEF: The body of General Anthony Wayne was boiled here in order to remove the skin from the bone so part of him could be buried in Philadelphia. SUMMARY: The body of General Anthony Wayne was boiled here in order to remove the skin from the bone so part of him could be buried in Philadelphia. The cauldron in which he was boiled is stored in the kitchen of the house and is known to bang and rattle at night. BRIEF: A strange apparition on film and photo SUMMARY: The Missionary is known to be haunted by a strange apparition that has been filmed and photographed. People do not know what or who the strange entities may have been, but the apparition apparently "likes to have people around." SUMMARY: This home was built in 1718 and has been known for its lovely box gardens. The house, however, is known for more than the lovely gardens. Visitors often hear strange voices and works in the garden when no one is there. No one can determine where the voices are coming from, and people do not venture into the garden after dark. Another stretch of land at Fairview that slopes down the lawn and meets the shore at Miles river had a headless man ghost that haunts the area. The ghost is believed to be a British sympathizer that still stands watch on the beach to guide the British ships into the harbor. On another road not far from the beach is another ghost that rides his horse madly along the winding road. This ghost has startled quite a few visitors. BRIEF: Indian spirits. SUMMARY: Possibly posthumously protesting the superbly unnatural large road through their territory, these are activists of another era. BRIEF: The locals avoid this deadly intersection SUMMARY: The reasons are unclear, but the realities are harsh: Every month on average, according to locals who call it "fear street", this infamous corner is home to amazingly horrid traffic accidents: "Every accident is horrid and leaves a disgusting scene." BRIEF: An old Indian un burial ground SUMMARY: This area has one-hundred fully or partially exposed Indian graves. BRIEF: It is said that in the basement, auditorium and in the area linked to the neighboring Middle School, there are semi-humanoid "restless creatures". SUMMARY: It is said that in the basement, auditorium and in the area linked to the neighboring Middle School, there are semi-humanoid "restless creatures". These are apparently hostile toward students and young teachers. BRIEF: A daughter and mother experience the supernatural. SUMMARY: One woman stayed at the Inn with her mother. Her mother was awakened by the sound of humming. She looked up and saw the ghostly silhouette of a woman with her hair in a bun walking at the foot of the bed. And then she disappeared. The next night she was awakened by the sound of a group of people marching outside, and they were talking and yelling back and forth. The Inn is located near Gettysburg College. BRIEF: Old theatre with several hauntings. SUMMARY: The Weinberg Center opened just before Christmas, 1926. The theater had 1,500 seats. The Tivoli Theatre was the largest of the three downtown Frederick movie houses. It cost over $300,000 to build, a fantastic sum in its time.
The Tivoli featured lavish decoration with marble, mosaics, velvet chairs, and crystal chandeliers. The theater had a Wurlitzer organ. It is the only one in that is still completely intact and in it original shape. The architect for the Tivoli was John J. Zink. He was a native of Baltimore.
The theater business of course steadily declined, and the Tivoli finally closed. A disastrous flood in 1976 from a nearby river caused substantial damage. The town decided to restore the grand old theater to its original glory. It took a year and a half to restore the building, but the rebuilt Tivoli reopened in 1978, now known as the Weinberg Center for the Arts, having been named for the family that donated the building to the city of Frederick.
The old theater is thought to be haunted by spirits who worked in the old theater in its past. BRIEF: Soldiers still on an important mission SUMMARY: The Patapsco Guard was a group of Maryland volunteers who organized in 1861 to guard the B&O Railroad during the Civil War. Maryland, being a "flip-flop" state, had supporters on both sides, and hence the B&O transported goods for both sides of the conflict. The PG was a Federal Unit assigned to the Provost Martial, charged with safeguarding the railroads from attack or sabotage. The Patapsco Guard was of course quite active during the Civil War. |
