Pennsylvania – The Seven Gates of Hell, York County
There are two versions of the gates of hell: In the first one, there were seven gates around an insane asylum, and when the asylum caught fire, patients were trapped inside a very literally burning hell. If you go to the site now, only one of the gates is visible before dark.
The second version is that an eccentric local man built seven gates leading deeper and deeper into the forest. The whole town rejects these rumors, claiming there was never an asylum, much less gates to Hell itself in the town of …Hellam.

You missed the boat on New Jersey! THE JERSEY DEVIL is most definitely the official haunting creature of the Garden State. Long before NJ was even a state, the legend of the Jersey Devil began. It was the 13th child of Mrs Leeds, who had no desire for another baby. According to legend, she cursed the baby even before it was born. At its birth, the creature assumed otherworldly dimension and flew up the chimney of the home. Since then, the Devil regularly haunts the Pine Barrens of New Jersey, frightening all it encounters. On the eve of a National tragedy, the Devil is said to appear at many varied places in the state to warn of evils to come (most notably in December 1941, just before Pearl Harbor.)
