Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
I wouldn't be surprised if that place ended up on one of those ghost hunting shows.
Also, abandoned mines and steel mills seem to be a thing in Pennsylvania.
oh hey, the hospital has a page on some site called Healthgrades that grades a hospital's reaction to assorted emergencies on a scale of one to five, we have nothing higher than a three. One one, and two "no data availables"
I could go on about how zinc poisoning has been reported to cause local water supplies to sometimes glow in the flippin' dark. But I think I've given you all enough nightmares for one day.

When I was young my family lived in a "dry" town. It was a suburb of Columbus, though--i.e., a freakin' huge city--so the prohibition was basically pointless because you could just drive 10 minutes out of your way, pick up some beer outside city limits, and take it home with you.
Eventually said suburb annexed a lot of areas where alcohol was already (legally) being sold, so they pretty much decided to let up on the whole "dry" thing.

There's a town somewhere in Southwest US where you can ignite the water.
That's what happens when natural gas miners don't bother with being careful.
And the worst thing was that they couldn't prove that the water wasn't flammable before the miners came, so they weren't able to sue.
Makes me glad that nothing's under the ground here 'cept for the aquifer.
Doctor Who reference in Pokemon B2W2? Headcanon accepted.
Well, Lubbock here was the last major dry city (by city I mean actual metropolis) in the United States, they went wet just a few years ago. According whoever Wikipedia gets their figures from, it's the second most conservative city in the United States. It's also the birthplace of Rock and Roll music. As for angry dead spirits, we're kind of lacking in that department

Why do they always become mental hospitals? "Hey, look at that spooky fucking old place. Yeah, that one that looks like it's made of nightmares. The ones where the town kids dare each other to spend the night at. Let's turn it into a mental hospital."

I'm disappointed that I can't think of any "creepy" things about my town.
The only things that come to mind are (a) the Walhalla Road urban legend, which is one of those things that's pretty clearly not true but gets repeated anyway because people like the story, and (b) the fact that much of our Community College campus was built on the former site of a Catholic cemetery.

Aw, part of it's all demolished-like! That's not cool! >:(

I'm going to have to go with red arrows, too. Having to guess when it's okay to take a left turn would drive me crazy, especially since my first instinct is to wait for everyone else to go before taking any openings.
ON the TVT talk, I got there sometime in the of fall of 2010. The first thread I read was the "Is Vic Mignogna a homophobic Bible-thumping asshole?" thread. That really takes me back.
Also, because I'm a dumbass, I forgot to mention Imipolex was another reason I came here. Though I am glad I came here, since I got a chance to get to know some people better that I never really interacted with on TVT, like CA and AU, Fouria, squid, Kraken, Gator, Haven and some other cool people.
Also, It's really hard to watch a foreign film when they don't subtitle half the damn movie. >_<

o, and here's the local elementary school. Disclaimer, I am not fucking joking. That's what this is.

Assassin poems, Poems that shoot
guns. Poems that wrestle cops into alleys
and take their weapons leaving them dead
Me too, Spacey.
Me too.
Luckily we may be moving to Bethlehem soon. Which is both significantly more civilized and significantly less oh god why.
But there is the former Morganza Reform School not too far away...scariest place I've ever had the misfortune of seeing from a distance
Why is Pennsylvania so full of strangeness? Man, I would have loved to go to school there, you know. I love old school buildings.
IS THERE FREAKING IVY GROWING ON THE OTHER SIDE OR SOMETHING
ARE THERE CREEPY GHOST TWIN GIRLS THERE

...pretty effective threat, I'd say. Then it became a mental hospital
You needed to know this.
here's a color one
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

If you want to cuddle against me in fear of them though, that's fine ^_^

...how is that something you do or don't believe in?
That's like "oh, I don't believe in The Sun"
I'm totally not bungling into this convo
And JZ, I think you need another cheesy 60s song
HERESY
I read what CF said as not believing in left turns.
So...both?
