History & local legend
The former York County Prison on Chestnut Street has accounts involving both its entrance and its cell blocks. On May 26, 2016, a photographer named Dale posted an image taken that day and said a small boy could be seen behind a parked truck near the entrance, with his hands folded against his chest.
An older tradition described two or three figures following visitors upstairs toward the first cell block. Looking down afterward, a person might see a red point glowing below, resembling the tip of a cigarette.
