This day, Halloween, is when the ‘veil’ is lifted from our world.. where the here and there separation is the thinnest of all.. So no better time that All Hallow’s Eve to showcase some interesting horror and macabre events from coal region past..
Namely at the No. 4 Jeddo Mine near Hazleton, PA..
Leaves browning as they crumble and drop to the ground.. autumnal breezes blowing through tree limbs.. That ever-mentioned thinning of the veil between the here and there is upon us.. It must be the season of the witch.. The top things to do in Schuylkill County PA

The best and times and the worst of times.. #Yuengling at 190.
