Speaker 1 (00:01):
Bad. Hey, friends, welcome, it's paranormal Punchers. I'm Mark, I'm Militia,

(00:28):
I'm Dave Man. Hey, Happy Halloween. That's right, it's Halloween.
That's Halloween time. So we thought we would talk about
a ghost story from out of the coal region of Pennsylvania,
our home state. And on the second half, I have
a little trivia that these three will compete against each other.

(00:49):
But it should be pretty easy this time around. I
thought it was in the Yngling region.

Speaker 2 (00:54):
Well, it's not kind of weird.

Speaker 1 (00:59):
Because you sectioned the state off by beers.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Yes, okay, being not from Pennsylvania and from around here,
I think cold region, I think okay, I thought there
was coal everywhere.

Speaker 1 (01:11):
But okay, I don't know what you want. Well, that
area is Yingling. What what are we down here?

Speaker 2 (01:17):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Oh you have no Yeah, you just make you just
make things up. Okay, enough that witty banter. Let's get
to the ghost story. Lisi is always why don't you
help all of us and kick it off?

Speaker 2 (01:38):
Sure?

Speaker 4 (01:39):
So on April twenty fifth, nineteen twenty five, but I
also saw April fifth. Yeah, there was a date discrepancy
because they were talking about Palm Sunday which is the
Sunday before Easter, right, And I was like, that's really
late Easter if it's April twenty fifth.

Speaker 1 (01:58):
But I thought it was.

Speaker 3 (01:59):
The fifth that they that they think it happened on. Okay,
maybe the fifth that there was one day it was why.

Speaker 5 (02:06):
Don't you hold that thought and say what it is
that they then?

Speaker 4 (02:12):
Anyway, there were two hikers that were traveling on a
road between Gordon and hesh.

Speaker 2 (02:20):
Hex Sharsville.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
I don't know, Okay, it works.

Speaker 4 (02:27):
This road is known as Mountain Road, old Mountain Road
or the Old Gordon Mountain.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Road and also Broad Mountain.

Speaker 2 (02:35):
Yes, there's there was a bunch of names for it.

Speaker 1 (02:39):
No consistency out there, and I was.

Speaker 4 (02:45):
Being clever when I wrote this. But there was a
murder of crows.

Speaker 1 (02:50):
Which that work out for you?

Speaker 2 (02:54):
I don't know, we'll find out.

Speaker 4 (02:57):
Anyway, there was a bunch of crows that they noticed
that were fussing over something that was in the brush,
and because they were curious, they walked over to see
what was happening, and that's when they found her. The
mutilated and badly burned body of a young woman was

(03:17):
lying on scorched grass. Her skull was smashed in and
there were gashes on her arms and scalp. Now, police
believed that the girl was still alive when she was
brought to that spot. She was struck on the forehead,
just over her left eye by a blunt object.

Speaker 1 (03:36):
And did they find a rock right next to your
body that they were theorizing that that probably is the object.

Speaker 4 (03:43):
It didn't have any blood on it, so they weren't
for they weren't completely sure that that's what it was,
but they were theorizing that that is what killed her.
But a large of blood was discovered under the leaves
surrounding the body, which indicated to police that she had

(04:06):
been murdered there.

Speaker 1 (04:10):
They also poured what kerosene on the body somehow were flammable. Yeah,
they're thinking that they did that while she was alive. Yeah,
they said maybe the blunt Yeah, hit to the forehead,
the head. She was unconscious when they lit her on fire, right.

Speaker 3 (04:25):
And it was like they felt and they found the body,
it was like the torso was all burned up and whatnot.

Speaker 1 (04:30):
And this is from the Mount Carmel News headline fiendish
murder on Broad Mountain. Charred remains of a girl found
in clump of brush on Sunday headline. Next to that,
eighty passengers shaken up when street car leaves the rails. Oh,
what's going on?

Speaker 4 (04:49):
So the corner determined that she had been dead between
four and ten days before that before she was discovered.
Now they also believe that she might have been between
the ages of sixteen and twenty. And I also saw
somewhere else sixteen to twenty eight, which is right.

Speaker 5 (05:10):
Much bigger those Well, so I saw that the the
what's the word I'm looking for twenty to twenty four, Okay,
and then they extrapolated it out with like a lesser
probability of subtracting four more years, adding four more years
to make it sixteen to twenty eight, got it, the
plus mnus?

Speaker 1 (05:29):
Yeah, yeah, gotcha, thanks day. Yeah.

Speaker 4 (05:35):
But she also she hasn't been identified to this day,
like they don't know who she is.

Speaker 2 (05:40):
They tried, they try for sure.

Speaker 1 (05:42):
Yeah. They cut her head off the body. Yeah, it
made a mode of it. Oh no, no, that was later.
That was that was that was later?

Speaker 4 (05:49):
Oh yeah, no, they decided to cremate the body, but
they cut her head off, yeah, and placed it in
a jar with chemicals in hope that someday she would
be identified. And then yes, they made a cast of
her head and eventually that's what became part of a
collection that was in the schoogle.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
It's still there, it is to this day. Yeah. Casting. Yeah, Now,
there was other clues that they were trying to figure out.
Did she had like a couple of rings on and
one of the rings led them like she worked at
this house of ill repute As they say, well, it
wasn't a house of ill repute.

Speaker 5 (06:28):
It just turned out to be oh yeah, it was
a it was a normal hotel. And when they went
to question they found that there was a whole black
market prostitution ring going and they shut all that down.
But that also could have been why they couldn't identify,
like if she was part of this, no one was

(06:49):
talking like because they raided the whole thing. They kind
of killed the whole investigation.

Speaker 4 (06:54):
Okay, I was gonna say it was an intense police investigation,
but they really didn't discover a whole lot of that.

Speaker 1 (07:03):
I was gonna say.

Speaker 3 (07:03):
You know, and as I was reading this, I thought
to myself, you know, the police in that area at
that time, we're not good because I'm just saying because
they didn't, like, like to your point, Dave, they thought
they initially thought it was a house of prostitution or

(07:25):
whatever they did. They thought it was just a yeah,
and they found out that it was they went through
I think what I read. I want to say, it
was either three or four different women that they thought
this body was.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
Yes, they were like, oh, it's got to be this person.

Speaker 3 (07:42):
Yeah, and then they'd find it were alive, you know,
married in another state, and they'd be like, oh, well, okay,
well maybe it wasn't her, Maybe it was this lady.
And then they would find her, and they went through
like three or four other ones, and each time they
found out that, oh no, she's alive, and well yeah yeah,
and then.

Speaker 5 (08:02):
I you know, I have my own theory, you know,
well from the police side, Yeah, this is a police
force from the great state of Pennsylvania. Yeah, that's okay,
definitely the Keystone Cups.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
Yeah yeah, yeah.

Speaker 5 (08:14):
And this is maybe dating that phrase for some listeners.

Speaker 3 (08:17):
But nineteen twenty six, so there wasn't Internet, there wasn't
a whole lot of stuff to figure things out, so
they had to work with what they had. Then there
was the whole guy who kept the head, right, doctor
Robert Spencer, who held He's the guy who put the
head in the jar, and he kept it in his

(08:39):
office for sixteen years in this jar. Then I don't
remember what it was that made him give up the
give up the jar with the head in it, But
when he did is when he made the mold and
then kept it in the jar and kept that in
his office for a couple more years when he had
to give away the head and then finally the fake head.

(09:03):
The mold is when got delivered to the museum. This
the scoogle whatever it was it went to.

Speaker 6 (09:11):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (09:11):
Yeah, so he had the original head in his office
for like sixteen years.

Speaker 1 (09:20):
So I hadn't heard that. Yes, but that gives me
vibes of a whole lot of vibese.

Speaker 3 (09:26):
Yeah, my note says doctor Robert Spencer is super sick
on held ahead and sixteen and then made a mold.

Speaker 5 (09:32):
Lots of expecation. You said he had to give it
up for some reason and everything. I'm like, maybe getting
arrested for being a serial killer.

Speaker 3 (09:40):
I think the police made him give it up, right,
And I mean and when they came to him and said, hey,
we need this for evidence. Like sixteen years later he
was like, oh, here, it is not a problem he
complied already made.

Speaker 1 (09:52):
But yeah, I don't know. You know what, I don't know.

Speaker 3 (09:55):
There's a whole lot of questions about this doctor and
what he was doing with his head for sixteen years
in a jar.

Speaker 1 (10:03):
You know. It made me think of.

Speaker 3 (10:04):
There was a movie about vampires and which is a
coven of witches or something that discovery of witches and
there was a witch with that was stuck in a box,
her head was stuck in a box that they would
talk about.

Speaker 2 (10:18):
I barely remember that one.

Speaker 3 (10:20):
Yeah, it made me think of that, and like I'm
thinking to myself, well, this guy, I don't know if
he was married or not, this doctor, where.

Speaker 1 (10:26):
Are you going with this into Atlanta? I don't want
to go to right? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, I'm just saying. Yes.
I was reading that and thought to myself, whoa this
guy was he talking to asking advice? Who knows? What
was he doing? Wishcrafts? I don't know? Is that the
mountains in Pennsylvania? Who knows? Who knows? All I knows?

(10:48):
This dude had his head for a long time. Who knows?

Speaker 4 (10:54):
Anyway, Well, I So by the end of the first
week of investigating the murder, they rounded up about seven
different people, five men and two women who they thought.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
Were involved in her death.

Speaker 4 (11:13):
But nothing really came out of that either, like they
eventually released them. So I feel like, yeah, they didn't
know who she was and they didn't know who the
culprit was or anything. So it's kind of how the
investigation ended.

Speaker 3 (11:32):
And there was a so there was before the body
was officially discovered. There was a man that kind of
came out of the woodwork slightly after it went to
the police saying that I guess he might have lived
in the area. I don't know how this other guy
showed up, but he said he discovered the body before
the official discovery of the body. Yeah, but he only

(11:55):
came out with saying this, and so maybe he was
a mountain man just hiking around. I have no idea.
But he discovered the body like two three days before
the actual official discovery and the police were contacted to
come in.

Speaker 1 (12:09):
So that was later. That sounds suspicious.

Speaker 5 (12:11):
That the whole thing is suspicious, yes, yeah, And I
forget where it came from. But there was reports of
people in the area seeing a car frequently in the
area and it was unloading engine oil. So the alternative
theory then kerosene was that it was actually they were
dumping their oil and.

Speaker 1 (12:33):
Used that to later akay hmm. But that was after
the fact.

Speaker 5 (12:37):
That was basically they hit her on the head, she
was dead, they kept coming back till they had enough
oil accumulated to later on fire geez.

Speaker 1 (12:47):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (12:47):
So the question that I that one of the questions
I had was, I mean, the police were kind of
in the dark with a lot of what happened here, right,
But one of the things that they did, what they
were firm on was that she was alive when they
doused her with gasoline and whatnot or oil or whatever
the inflammable thing.

Speaker 1 (13:06):
How would they know that?

Speaker 2 (13:08):
Yeah, I don't know. That's a good question.

Speaker 1 (13:11):
That's and if she was saying they're forensics obviously, I'm
just saying there was a lot of not up to
not up to the stake.

Speaker 4 (13:18):
I mean, I can see like if they excellently killed
her and then they wanted to burn her.

Speaker 1 (13:24):
Yeah, because there was some something that that's I don't know.

Speaker 5 (13:28):
Nineteen twenty techniques, modern techniques would be checking for inflammation
on the lungs of she inhaled the fumes, oh right,
or the accelerant you know, that would mean she was
still breathing at the time, right in.

Speaker 2 (13:42):
Nineteen twenty five. I don't I don't know what they did.

Speaker 1 (13:45):
Is there a small chance for the newspaper, that's what
they said, to put people's at ease, like she was
unconscious when they when she was let on fire, just
to let people know like maybe she wasn't burned alone.

Speaker 3 (13:58):
Well, no, she was burned alive. But what I found
said that she was burned alive, and that's how.

Speaker 1 (14:02):
They I thought they were saying she was definitely unconscious. Okay, yeah,
that's what I mean, that's what one of the which
Now what I said, I realized it's stupid because, you know,
to put people's minds at ease, I think, if you're
unconscious and all of a sudden you're on fire, you're waking
the hell up. Yeah yeah, yeah, that's a stimulant, I guess. Yeah,

(14:22):
being burned alive, that's no good. That's no good.

Speaker 3 (14:25):
But even so so today there's all kinds of stuff
that happened when people drive by.

Speaker 1 (14:30):
Ah yes, yeah, getting to now the ghost report, Yeah,
the actual paranormal, actual paranormal getting that terrible. So the
shame was is still to this day and unsolved. They
don't know who she is, they'll never we'll never know.

Speaker 5 (14:45):
Well, and obviously we need to get to the paranormal
side of it. But I'm actually more interested in the uh,
the burner.

Speaker 1 (14:51):
Side of it.

Speaker 5 (14:52):
Oh wow, wow, right, yes, I'm I'm actually over one
hundred years old.

Speaker 1 (15:00):
She was so nice when she was. Yeah, I just
want to make sure I'm not caught.

Speaker 5 (15:05):
But now, the like with the head, if it's still around,
with the chemicals, could they do DNA on it, could
they do any kind of to find out who she
may have been related to?

Speaker 1 (15:15):
All of that?

Speaker 5 (15:16):
And you know, well, I'm sure we'll come back to
theories on the murder, but.

Speaker 3 (15:21):
They could even do it from the inside of the
mold potentially, because if he took a mold of her face,
or if he just kind of freehanded it out. I
don't know, maybe after sixteen years he kind of get
used to starring it.

Speaker 1 (15:34):
Jar.

Speaker 5 (15:35):
I don't know, but in any case, I'm like, yeah,
unsolved murders are always interesting.

Speaker 1 (15:43):
Yeah, thanks Bundy.

Speaker 4 (15:49):
So they say her translucent ghostly figure roams the forest
near where she was found. Others have reported hearing her
cries for help. Now, also, if you're driving on that road,
your headlights made dim. And then also they have claim

(16:10):
some people have claimed that their car engines have stalled
and the radios have shut off, either like.

Speaker 1 (16:16):
The electrical or whatever flickering.

Speaker 4 (16:18):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (16:18):
Yeah, people say that sounds it's the sound of a
woman in agony, like these things are here and now
how people say, oh, that's like owls things like that.
But people swear like, no, that's a woman howling in pain, right, okay.

Speaker 4 (16:34):
And then after their car is stalled, a lady in
white appears. She approaches the car, looks inside, and then
disappears while the car the car begins to run again.

Speaker 1 (16:47):
Yeah to that. One of the story is at least people.
One person described it on a full moon traveling along
that mountain road. You come up when you're getting near
that spot. You know, people have seen a woman sitting
on this rock brushing her hair, and then she'll get
up and come to the car, like looking in the

(17:10):
look in the windows. People say that she's looking for
her murder. And then when the murder is not in
the car, she vanishes. But I but the story, I mean,
it's the woman in White, which is like reports of
that kind of phantom h a lot of different locations
in America. In fact, Sam and Dean uh had to

(17:32):
fight one in season one of Supernatural. Yeah there was.

Speaker 3 (17:37):
I also came across one where there where the the
apparition would come up to the car and tap on
the window.

Speaker 1 (17:44):
Similar to what the story I would tell, but now
it's there's a different variants.

Speaker 3 (17:48):
Yeah, people would like it would tap on the window,
and I guess the occupants of the car would get
out and take off, get out of the car and
run down the mountain or run to the nearest town
and have to come back the next day to come
get their car during the day and they said, there's
a there. This happens often. I guess that. Yeah, people

(18:12):
would just bail on their car, you know. So I
don't know if they're like a pull off that like
she frequents like an overlook thing. But to just bailing
your car on, you know, in the on the road
or on the side of the road and book it
down this mountain, yeah, what would you do? I would drop.

Speaker 2 (18:30):
If the car doesn't work well.

Speaker 3 (18:32):
It's funny because there's there's something.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
That said that I read that if you put your
car in neutral, oh yeah, that'll start start drifting up
the mountain.

Speaker 3 (18:45):
It drifts up the mountain, So maybe you'd just be like,
roll down the window, you know, roll up the wind
and you're like.

Speaker 1 (18:50):
I can't hear you. I mean, I think we're neutral
mountain and the car stalls and a ghost at the window.
I'm like, just we tell Nash push and we'll just
steer the car. Just get out down.

Speaker 3 (19:02):
You know, because I think the idea of of well,
you're in your car and if it's cars gonna glide
up the mountain and she's knocking on the window, maybe
you just throwing neutral and just pretend like you can't hear.

Speaker 5 (19:15):
I did want to key something you guys said there.
One of the things I did look up. I was
thinking was this one of the gravity spots. It's not
so you said, put it in neutral and it drifts
up the mountain. It's not a gravity spot. It would
drift down the mountain. It would follow gravity.

Speaker 3 (19:30):
Well, yeah, that's that's what I was thinking, that you
would just put it in a neutral and it would
drift down or just you know, but.

Speaker 1 (19:35):
I heard somebody say drift up.

Speaker 5 (19:37):
It's not a gravity well or whatever they call it,
that those are the nearest. One is about an hour
and a half away from this mountain.

Speaker 6 (19:44):
That unseen force is pushing it up right.

Speaker 1 (19:48):
Now. They were saying that, like the ghost do start.
Happened almost immediately. Yeah, but people were like going up
there and crushing jinglings and just like hanging out in
the woods waiting to see they could see you stuff.
So there's like reports of like balls orbs like cruising
around and people were like, well, it's probably a headlight,
but they were saying no, because the orb would go up,

(20:11):
it would float up and then you know, wind around
trees and stuff. But it was fascinating that people were
going out there with the beers and just hanging and
just hoping to see a ghost.

Speaker 5 (20:21):
Just remember this was during prohibition, so beer wasn't super
frequent type of thing. Like they're how much would they
actually have had? Probably had some really good moonshine, right,
I tell you. I came across and said they were
drinking some younglings.

Speaker 3 (20:36):
Yeah, of course I saw the same thing that because
y England is so close to it, I guess that
there they because.

Speaker 5 (20:41):
I'm producing during that time. That's why they they walked.

Speaker 2 (20:44):
Off under Uh it was like later.

Speaker 1 (20:48):
Maybe just maybe some of them that would make that
would make sense, because you're right, it was during prohibition.
M couldn't drink away.

Speaker 5 (20:58):
I think I would either way, Dave, we're going up there.

Speaker 3 (21:05):
Couldn't get it at the House of ill repute, so
you had to go up on the mountain.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
One other police shot down in the House of Well,
there was nothing to do but right sit out in
the woods and look for ghosts, drink mood. Well, yeah,
you get rid of our alcohol, you get rid of
our hotels.

Speaker 1 (21:19):
What we're supposed to do.

Speaker 2 (21:24):
Now, I know. There's also been reports of.

Speaker 4 (21:29):
Like there was a car dealer guy and his two buddies.
They would put like bed sheets on mannequins around the trees,
just trying to like freak people out and make them
think that there's ghosts here.

Speaker 1 (21:45):
But well, but in nineteen twenty five July they had
some mediums e spiritualists come out to try to do
a seance. This goes back to everybody partying like they
were having trouble trying to even get folks because there's
so many people hanging out trying, you know, watching the
action that the mediums are like, well, it's too much commotion,

(22:07):
but we definitely think there's a spear here wants to talk,
but these people won't shut the heck up. Yeah. Yeah,
they said that.

Speaker 3 (22:13):
The guys that were out there with the mannequins, sheets
on the mannequins, they were they were doing a couple
of different things to try to sell the area, and
it was like that was one. They were in sheets
running around and then they would take people like on tours.
They were like a ghost tour thing, and that's that's
why they would set up these things. And they're you know,

(22:35):
because it's cold and you're in the mountains, that there's
a couple like creeks or small lakes and that have
miss coming off the lakes. And they would say that
the mists coming off. Oh, there she is, she's the mist.
She's the mist coming off.

Speaker 1 (22:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (22:48):
And so that the finally led to the cops having
to shut down the road that goes to that spot
because I guess for two reasons. There was traffic congestion,
of course, but b people were getting drunk with their
year engling and they would go up and they would

(23:08):
go up to in there in the mountains, so they
would go up with protection, all armed, and then they
would start shooting at things in the woods drunk, and.

Speaker 1 (23:18):
So they were like, yeah, so they would have a
but it goes like you bring a gun to a
ghost hunt, Like, what's the gun going to do to
a ghost.

Speaker 3 (23:26):
I think it's just because it's in the mountains, and
you know at night in the mountains.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Say, you might run into something else.

Speaker 1 (23:33):
Yes, exactly, maybe the people that did the crime in
the first place. Yeah, So I guess that's been a
real issue with the spot, was people getting drunk and
bringing their guns. I think I think probably a problem.

Speaker 3 (23:51):
Finally the cops did something right, shut the whole thing down.

Speaker 4 (23:56):
Yeah, I think I read also like every year around
how Halloween, that road is popular, so like there's a
lot of traffic.

Speaker 6 (24:03):
But I'll check it out.

Speaker 2 (24:05):
Yeah, I would totally check it out.

Speaker 1 (24:07):
Well, if and it's no longer prohibition today, we can
drink our ynglings, right if at least.

Speaker 3 (24:12):
Drives right, Yeah, So okay, So I so there's a
in a sense of urgency with this. Okay, So if
we're going to go check out this road around Halloween. Okay,
we gotta get beard up, gotta get the cooler. We
all go up, we bring our guns, we get tanked
and then because what on November something, the three eye
at List is going to come in the end of

(24:33):
the world comes from the aliens.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Right, so we gotta do it now, we gotta do
ver like you know, well you got to do the
road trip.

Speaker 5 (24:41):
Yeah, yeah, unless that's the message that three Iyatlist is bringing,
is who her killer actually was and bringing her peace.

Speaker 3 (24:47):
Like where your head's at day? If I like where
your head's at? Okay, get my yangling and my guns.

Speaker 1 (24:53):

ancestor or ancestor descendant of the actual killer is in
the car and she matches the DNA or something like

killed and help us put it to rest, and she
leaves him alone. Right, Okay, there you go. Don't write

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
