Gordon Mountain
Pennsylvania · United States · Haunted site
A woman was murdered on this Pennsylvania mountain. Drivers say their car stalls, she checks every window for the man who did it, then returns to her rock.
The account from the top of Gordon Mountain in Pennsylvania is one of the most specific in the archive, and it has a sequence that never varies in the telling.
A woman was murdered up there many years ago and left to die. The man who killed her had a distinguishing scar on his face.
Drive up at night and your car stalls. She comes to the vehicle and checks every window, one after another, looking for him. Then she goes back to her rock and carries on brushing her hair, which is what she is doing when you first arrive.
No name, no date and no record accompany the killing, and it should be read as folklore.
What makes it stay with people is the checking. Everything she is described doing is the behaviour of someone still afraid of a specific person, and the scar is the only description of him that survives.
