History & local legend

Sharon G. described an investigation at Beechwood Cemetery in Bensalem, Bucks County, on July 30, 1998. She and Rachel were at the back of the group when Sharon felt a touch on her lower back. Rachel was beside her, while everyone else was ahead. A short distance farther on, Sharon felt it again.

The two women moved toward the trees and heard a high moan. They paused, heard it a second time and approached the sound, but the woods became quiet. Sharon returned on November 23 with a camera and recorder, spending two hours hoping to experience something like the earlier visit.
