  • Summary

  • Episode 15: This episode takes us to Eagles Mere, a borough in Sullivan County, Pennsylvania. The lake is said to have been formed in a unique way according to a Native American Legend. It may also be haunted by a couple who drowned in the lake according to a diary found in Glassmaker George Lewis’s desk. We also discuss the nearby ghost town of Celestia. Celestia was a religious community founded in the 1850s by millennialists. In the 1860s Peter Armstrong, the community's founder, deeded the land to God, but God paid no taxes and the land was put up for sale by the county.
