Hauntings + Histories

"Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing." --Abraham Lincoln


4 years, 2 months, 13 days, 8 hours, 33 minutes, 43 seconds until the Mayan end of Age.

"When you get old, the only things you remember are the things you dared to do and the things you didn't dare to do. All the daily stuff, the things you had to do, the things someone paid you to do, blur into the nothingness of 'unimportant to your soul', and when you look back on your life you only see the dreams you made happen and the dreams you were afraid to pursue." --P.J. Gaenir's grandfather

Dutch Cemetery

SUMMARY: Taken from A walking Tour of Berkeley Springs Lots 1 and 2 of the original town plat were set aside by the trustees in 1777 for a German church and two other houses. There is no indication that any structures were built. It was variously known as the Dutch, German or Lutheran Cemetery. The body of Doctor Samuel Crawford, victim of a postwar lynching in 1876, was buried there. In 1888, two men reported seeing the ghost of Crawford standing over his grave in the old Dutch graveyard. There was a move in 1917 to move the few bodies interred here to Greenway Cemetery so the land could be available for development. No action was taken. Gravestones have been restored in recent years.

Courthouse

BRIEF: Justice sometimes leaves the ghosts of injustice.

SUMMARY: The courthouse was built in 1838. The circuit court judges used the building to conduct trials for murderers, thieves and other criminals. In the basement was a sheter for the poor. Sometimes during trials the smell of cooking coming from the basement would fill the court rooms. The place is known to be haunted. The smell of food still sometimes fills the building even though there is no place to cook. The sounds of footsteps walking through the halls has been heard. The doors have been known to open and close by themselves.

BRIEF: The spirits of some of those imprisoned here still remain

SUMMARY: Eastern State was born in 1829 with the opening of it's doors to prisoners bound for the newly legislated solitary confinement.

Famous residents include Al Capone & Willie Sutton who, with a dozen men died attempting to tunnel out of the prison. As one might guess, some of the spirits of those imprisoned here have remained.
