History & local legend
Martin Fuess and David Fleischman’s Sheffield Street house in Pittsburgh’s Manchester neighborhood featured on a 2003 Haunted Tales tour. They had heard reports of a woman in a long Victorian skirt passing the second-floor family-room doorway, and noticed smaller disturbances such as the front hall light turning on overnight or the cellar door standing ajar.
Their terrier, Jack, added another mystery. Fuess told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that the dog repeatedly stopped in the dining room and stared toward one corner of the ceiling, tilting his head. Fuess could call him away, but Jack returned to the same spot and sometimes watched it for several minutes.
