History & local legend
Woodcrest Mansion stands on the former Cabrini College estate in Radnor. Campus ghost stories involve several different buildings there, so the mansion should be distinguished from Woodcrest Hall, a separate residence hall nearby.
A 2009 collection by Ghosts of Delaware County describes footprints in snow that approach the mansion and stop abruptly. The same account places a woman in a blue dress near Woodcrest Hall. These are different reported phenomena at different parts of the estate, not a single encounter following one figure between buildings.
Students were telling supernatural stories about the campus well before that blog appeared. A 1987 issue of the campus newspaper, Loquitur, described floating objects in the mansion and a mysterious woman at the counseling center. Halloween storytelling also brought students to Grace Hall's bell tower.
