Haunted Tales and the Hex House

Episode 24 – Originally Published 2017

Not far from the Pennsylvania/Maryland border, south of York, is a house with a dark history – the Hex House. It was once owned by Nelson Rehmeyer, a Pennsylvania Dutch medicine man who was savagely beaten and murdered by local townsmen in 1928. In an attempt to hide their crimes, these men attempted to set the house on fire, but it wouldn’t burn.

Nelson Rehmeyer was considered a witch by some, and the fact his house wouldn’t burn was considered proof of that status. Take a trip out to central Pennsylvania to Rehmeyer’s Hollow, filled with ghost stories and legends from the past 100 years.
