Axe Murder Hallow

: "The Legend says that A man chopped up his entire family with an axe because of his suspicions of his wife and a farm hand. A few years later a car with a young couple in it got stuck in the mud. The boy went for help and told his girlfriend to stay in the car. A while later the girl heard someone outside the car saying, "Get out." She stepped out in the pouring rain and saw her boyfriend hanging by his ankles with his throat slit. She tried to run for help, but a figure with an axe in his hand grabbed her."

Erie Cemetery

: "The Erie cemetery is said to be haunted. There are a few locations that are definitely eerie. The first one is a mausoleum. It''s blackened, like it was burned. There''s no name on it, but you can tell that there used to be one. It also has a lot of vampire like designs on it. The other area is called the Witches Circle. It is a group of tombstones that are in the shape of a circle. Some of them are burnt black. Legend has it that Satan came to get his loyal followers. The burns are supposed to be from the fires of Hell. It has been tried repeatedly to get the scorch marks off of the tombstones, but it doesn''t ever come off. I''ve inspected these stones myself and tried to read what they said on them. One had some pretty weird stuff on it. You get chills and hear walking behind you while at this cemetery. When you turn around, though, no one is there. Witnesses have seen a big black dog there and when they looked again, it wasn''t there."

Gannon University

: "Frat House - Years ago at this frat house there was a Halloween costume party the fraternity was hosting. Everybody was dressed up in a costume. During the party, what appeared to be a person, was looming around quietly dressed in a dark cowboy-like outfit with a big brim black hat. One of the people at the party noticed the figure and followed it to a room upstairs. Then the figure turned around and looked at the person and disappeared. Later on during the party, noises such as walking, banging, and windows opening and closing began to be heard from the upstairs of the house. Some of the people at the party went upstairs to see what was happening. When they got up there, the figure was seen again and this time it spoke. It yelled at them to GET OUT! Then it vanished and everybody left the house. To this day, it is not known if the figure still haunts the house."

Old Main Tower at Mercyhurst College

: "This structure used to be a convent in the earlier part of the twentieth century. A woman that had been told that her lover was killed in WW2 joined the convent back in its day. A few years later, the lost lover returned, but the nun had already given her heart to God. She went crazy and was locked in the tower where she committed suicide. The ring that her lover gave her was placed at the base of a Virgin Mary statue. For the last fifty years, anyone who had touched the ring died within five years. The ring was eventually locked away, but appears every so often. People have also claimed to see the nun''s spirit roam the halls."

: "Lights turn on and off on the east side of the building. Doors slam by themselves. Presence felt throughout the building."

The mansion is now a museum."
