We returned to the haunted Dead Manâs Hollow in Pittsburgh, PA. McKeesport, PA.
1874 â Origin of the Name
A group of boys were wandering through a remote area
near the Youghiogheny River
when they discovered a man hanging from a noose in a tree.
The body was badly decomposed at the time,
making it impossible to identify the victim.
Many believe this tale is the reason for the name of the area.
1880 â Gunned Down
Robert âGeorgeâ McClure owned a dry goods shop
in McKeesport, PA, that had been robbed.
McClure went on a hunt to find those responsible for the crime
and discovered them in Dead Manâs Hollow.
McClure fired shots at the criminals who fired back.
McClure was killed in the encounter.
Seven years later, gang leader Ward McConkey
was convicted of McClureâs murder and hanged
for the crime in the courtyard of the Allegheny County Jail.
His alleged last words were, âGoodbye, all you murderersâ.
Some believe itâs his spirit that haunts Dead Manâs Hollow.
1883 â The Explosion
In March of 1883,
four workmen at George Flemmingâs stone quarry
in Dead Manâs Hollow were killed when attempting to thaw frozen explosives by an open flame.
The explosives ignited and the blast killed
at least two of the men instantly.
The Bank Heist
Two men robbed a bank in Clairton, PA,
and met in the hollow to split the money.
One of the men shot the other to keep all the money
and stashed it in a secret hiding place.
Legend says he was discovered at the opening of the woods
by lawmen and gunned down.
Some people believe the money is still in the hollow.
1905
Mike Sacco
was working at the Union Sewer Pipe Company
when he was killed in an elevator accident.
Some believe his spirit is still haunting the area.

I just realized, around the 3:50-4:00 mark, we talk about how it may seem as if the spirits donât want us to film anymore, Before the camera cut, we werenât getting any more answers after the flashlight DID respond immediately on point. Sorry about that lol EDIT: I also just realized that even though it seems like we got A LOT of responses, most of the night it was actually dead. This is more the highlights of the night, just semi-fast forwarded, and semi-real time. We definitely got more than what we THOUGHT we did, (which has actually been a problem with us not realizing until AFTER the fact), so Iâm actually satisfied with this video This is also the birth of what we call, âThe 5:30 Theoryâ. (Reference towards the end of the video)
