History & local legend

Bristol Cemetery in Croydon, Bucks County, was established in 1882. Paranormal investigators have connected the burial ground on Bristol Pike with an account of a child's voice and unexplained lights.

The account preserved by PIRA describes investigators recording what they interpreted as a young girl's voice. They also reported seeing white lights and having camcorder batteries lose power unusually quickly. A Philadelphia Ghost Hunters Alliance case index lists three visits to the cemetery.
