What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Pennsylvania anthracite coal region is known for its ghost legends and a tumultuous history, including the “Reign of Terror” in the coal fields of Carbon, Schuylkill, and Luzerne counties. This period of violence and intimidation lasted from 1862 to about 1875. The area also features historical sites, such as the Old Jail Museum in Jim Thorpe, which houses the Carbon County Jail.
