Junction fire department, Lewistown Junction, PA
Across the Juniata River from Lewistown proper is a place called Lewistown Junction. Located in this little settlement is the “15 house” or Lewistown Junction Fire Department. These men seem to be very dedicated. So dedicated in fact that they may not want to ever go off duty.
There is a report of a firefighter hung himself in the Engine room. You are reportedly able top see him dangling there. You can also hear him gasping for breath as he slowly runs out of air. Prior to this passing, he apparently disappears.
One of the people who ran the house for years had frequent feelings of being followed, and items getting knocked down. His 5yo daughter
used await his return from responding to calls in a small room, off of the engine room. She recounts having an eerie feeling and being uncomfortable until he came back, but was always too fascinated by the paranormal to leave.
The are other reports of items in the meeting room moving about when no one is present. There are also reports of kids running around in the quiet hours of the night.
We hope to get more information on this location and update this posting shortly.

United Fire Co. #11, Lewistown , PA
In Lewistown itself dedication to duty appears to be just as strong. At the United Fire co #11 on third street, there appears to be another who will not go off duty.
Old man Henderson appears to still oversee the house and has been reported to have talked to a young girl. When the girl was asked whom she was talking to, she pointed at the portrait of the long dead Henderson. This event was witnessed by several people.
