History & local legend

On March 24, 2007, three members of Delaware Ghost Hunters investigated the Pennypacker Mills mansion in Montgomery County. Soon after a tour ended, a volunteer crouched on the floor and began crying. The investigators approached her and later interpreted what followed as communication through the volunteer from a spirit named Mary.

Their report says Mary returned several times during the evening. It also describes two other supposed speakers: a boy afraid that he would be taken into the army, and a woman in the basement worried about missing fruit and provisions from cold storage.
