The Chain Lady of Pitts Forbes Hall
Student Residents of the 5th floor of University of Pittsburgh's Forbes Hall have for years heard the story of the Chain Lady and how she haunts the floor .
The story goes that Forbes Hall before it became a Student Dormitory was a former Insane Asylum and that on the 5th floor was kept the most violent inmates who where kept secured by chains.
One night the women in charge of the floor who was short staff that evening was caring for the inmates when one of them managed to escape there bonds while being cared for and took off down the stairwell.
The women in charge went sailing after her with the confinement chains to hold her once she got hold of her
slipped and fell and ended up with chains wrapped around here neck and suspended from them.
Students claim they can often hear what sounds like chains rattling around the 5th floor stairway.
Except there is a big problem to this whole story.
The site before it was Forbes Hall was a Nursing home for the elderly which went bankrupt.

There was never an Insane Asylum located there its a totally made up story. to scare the students and nothing more .
So if there are spirits about making noise its the Former Nursing Home residents not a chain lady

You have 3 levels to explore including the Anderson Library full of WWII books and literature
The museum works on donations and there is no set fee .
But why a museum all the way up north in Western Pa. in middle of no where ?
Its because of the National Munitions Plant once located there

How the Alarm Industry Pulled off off a master Deception all over the Tri State in late 70s early 80s
Yes Dictograph Corporation in the 1970's and 80's stopped and deterred many shop lifters and employee thieves By leasing to to merchants for $350.00 a month a CCTV Camera system
With its big 3 inch Lens and red blinking light it panned back and forth or was sometimes stationary carefully keeping an eye on shoppers and employees . Some times just 1 camera or as many as 3 to 6 cameras in a business
A warning sign warned that a sophisticated anti theft camera system was deployed
Once a month a technician would come in with his special suitcase go up a ladder open it up pull up an antenna and talk to a person at central control who gave directions how to adjust the camera.
Except the whole thing was a charade the cameras where Fake and the technician talking to master control that was a tape recording he was talking to in the brief case .
One of the most best kept secrets in the industry they pulled it off for several years till thieves figured out what was going on.
I thought all along they where fake but i was in the industry and knew we had fakes I even put up some that looked real at the time and still some times use them strategically along with real cameras to give the impression every area on a floor is being watched.
Plus the trick worked it stopped a lot of problems by being a deterrent .
Of course many business now have cameras and many times they are broken or not working or are of such poor quality the images can not be used in court but all in all dummy cameras have done their job.

It now serves as a Haunted Attraction but the property it is on has a much darker past. Sully Pool in South Park
As you wind around the back roads of South Park in Allegheny County you will come across Hundred Acres Manor a Haunted Attraction used during Halloween.
But this property served a much darker Past during the era of Jim Crow
It was a Swimming Pool known as Sullys Pool Officially Hundred Acres Pool but more commonly known as " The Ink Well" which is where Blacks where forced to swim and have a fun day at the pool instead of the big beautiful Corrigan Road Pool which was suppose to be open to blacks but they where often discouraged from using it do to Unofficial Jim Crow Laws in Pa. both by Patrons and County Park Police
I remember as a young kid in early 70s swimming in Corrigan when attending the Altar Boys Picnic for St. Basil's and there where a couple black kids but not in 60s when I was a child

Corrigan closed permanently in 1977 due to too many leaks and cost to maintain it. Became a skate park for a while and now sits abandoned and Sullys closed after the wave pool opened in 80s.
While there was also a North Park Pool in Allegheny County I have never heard of racial problems at this pool but it was much further to get to which is why Corrigan was more popular.
A shameful past of Allegheny County's history and now long forgotten as no one younger than 50 would even remember the pools .

There needs to be memorial markers telling what went on at both pools so this shameful chapter is never forgotten and repeated .
A Strange Half Finished office Building along Lincoln Highway in Jeanette
If you spend any amount of time going up and down the Lincoln Highway also known as US 30 there is a strange unfinished office building as you pass thru the outskirts of Jeanette Pa. across from what was Monsour Medical Center which is now an empty lot.
now demolished Monsour Medical hospital |
It has been sitting like that since at least late 1980s its just a block and steel shell with windows not even all doors installed. So whats the story ?
Well back in the 1958 4 brothers all Physicians William ,Roy ,Robert and Howard opened up
The modern Monsour Medical Center.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monsour_Medical_Center
But the hospital seemed to always be burdened with debt. Partially to do with the brothers disagreeing on how to run the hospital and who exactly was in change and constantly being dogged by regulators for not meeting regulations .
One day the brother filed for bankruptcy and up and closed hospital leaving everything behind causing a hazmat problem and improper disposal of patients records.
The office building across the street was to be an expansion of the hospital featuring Doctors Offices and such . but between not being able to pay bills and internal arguments it to was abandoned and at this point the property is still mired in muck of who owns what.
So it will just sit like it has since at least the 80s.
