The Lemoyne Crematory in Washington County Pa. first of its kind in the US and said to be haunted

Located in Washington County just on the outskirts of the city of Washington sits a lonely brick structure with a fascinating history.
The Le  Moyne Crematory the first crematory in the US.



Developed in the late 1800's by the enterprising physician Julius Le Moyne   he believed cremation was a better alternative to  traditional burial in the ground which he believed lead to disease and illness  which was brought about when the ground and  water table was  polluted by decaying body's.









 How ever for some it seems the good Dr. is still busy going about cremations even thou the last one was done in 1900  as seen in the report below 


As people riding by claim to see lights on in the building and even smoke from the chimney.
  going back to the early 1900's  
The place does have a eerie creepy type sense to it  but then again it was a cold and dark dreary  day when I visited it  . Is it truly haunted well you will have to find out for yourself.
