Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

Lizzy’s House

Exeter, Pennsylvania

Lizzy and her husband were a happy, and well-to-do couple many years ago, as the story goes. This all changed once Lizzy discovered that her husband was having an affair with their housekeeper. After being confronted about his infidelity, the husband decided that he did not wish to stay with Lizzy. He pushed her down the stairs, and she plummeted to her death. Hauntings include sounds of thumping on the stairs, lights flickering on and off, and loud screeches in the night. One night, a teenage boy was walking in front of the house, and a group of boys drove up to where he was. They jumped out and proceeded to beat him up, rob him, and eventually kill him. One of the boys looked up at the house and noticed a white, floating figure coming towards him. He called to his friends, and they left. The person that reported the murder to the police only identified herself as Lizzy.

I know I’m a tinsy bit behind the curve on this story… but my friends and i went on a ghosthunting extravaganza this past summer… and we hung out on lincoln road many nights… this place really has history in Berks County simply because many generations of families have thier own stories…

My family in particular has had a lot of history there… like a lot of families around here… i mean my parents broke in as kids and have thier own stories and experiences there… Generations have broken in there so the cops CONSTANTLY watch it (not even joking… if you go… park in the parking lot like two blocks down the street and walk, cops look for cars and the authorities at the factory across the way are not too keen on people parking there.)
ANYWAYS… i was waiting with my friend one night, and while my other friends bypassed the fences he went into the field to “relieve” himself. I sat down on a fire hydrant across from the house… but after a few moments he sprinted back to be grabbed my arm… when he didn’t stop i turned to see what was going on. He was completely pale… and all of a sudden i got really cold… (need i remind you this was summer… and there was no wind nor any thing else which would catch you attention like this.) My friends meanwhile were up at the house flashing pictures. Suddenly they stopped and a slender white figure emerged from the knee high grass behind us and shot across the street. (Personally, i tried to dismiss it at first as headlights turning onto the road, but no cars came) My other friends were up at the house suddenly stopped. My friend who was with me yelled once for our friends, saying “I think it is about time to leave guys.” and about three minutes later they emerged. When they crossed the street they said they had been fine until i had yelled for them. Then the camera had turned off and it got frighteningly cold. We told them what we had seen and they said they thought they had seen something white push between them on thier way to the gate. They also said they had heard me yelling something along the lines of “You’d Better Leave” but we informed them i had not yelled nor said anything. They had not even heard my male friend yelling for them, just the female voice, assumed to be me. We left and went to Exeter diner. A lot of the shots they had taken toward the end were very blurry, and some even had strange white lines.

If you do go to Lizzie please be respectful, honestly, if there is something in that house, it probably should not be disturbed. I actually read all of Charles Adam’s, Ghost Stories Of Berks County, and i believe the Lizzie Story in there to be the most realistic regarding our area.

Please be nice… and watch out for cops… it is private property…

Bella, It seems to me that you have as Little time as I, and that you are some what the Hypocrit. Had you not been a part of the class of which you so prudently defended, You would not have had the time to put so much effort into doing the same to me as you so convincingly(to yourself, I’m sure) accused me of. What is more pathetic than even what you claim as pathetic, is your ability to criticise me for my opinions when you blatently expressed more of your own opinion than I did. And You question my social life, Well I unlike many people have an intellectual response to that: I am most likely more active than anyone you know, (not sure, but usually correct), I am a musician of 31 years, have recorded for Epic records and was in Cream Magazine Oct 1993. I race snowmobiles. I fish in FLW semi Pro and Pro Am Tournaments in my Bass Boat when I am not riding My Vulcan 800(not an awesome bike, but a nice ride) And I dedicate as much time as possible out of my 85 hour work week to playing with my children and spending time with my wife. Now… what inspired me to break off into my fun little comment previously was the simple fact that I, having only a high school education, work in excess of 15 hours a day(my choice, not bitching)and I come onto a site like this because I also have a personal and familiar interest in the paranormal and I have to read a bunch of illiterate nonsense that only a retard believes he/she can understand. Thus giving me the impression that the person who wrote it is probably less educated than I am (their Choice)and probably sits at home on public assistance (that I pay for, Not my choice)and types on a computer(that I’m sure I contributed to them owning) like a retard at 4:56 pm when her fat *** could be supporting herself. Then has the audacity to criticise me with a whole paragraph calling me pathetic as she researches the times of which I posted two seperate comments. Then wonders why I (no acquaintance of hers) am on My Computer(that I worked 20 hours that day to pay for) at 12:29 on a Sunday morning or Saturday night depending I guess on what you were doing at the time. And then accuses me of being angry because my life is empty. How smart are you? hmmmmmmm Lets see, it is now around 12:29 am Thursday and I am on my computer again!!! It seems we have a pattern here. Aside from all that well spoken grammar(I’m not just the Grammar police, I’m the Captain), I thought I had fun the first time, but thank you for a totally hysterical and hypocritical mass of fun that was truly unexpected. I take back everything I said about those other retards, You are by far the Queen. I commend you for your small minded but eager challenge…. Bravo, Bravo!!

My Dearest Bella, I forgot one little thing, I served My country at Desert Storm in the US Navy to maintain your freedom and your right to criticise me. So please continue to excercise your rights. Otherwise I fought for nothing !!!!! What have you done? lol

Oh by the way, my comments were 6 months after the other persons, and mine were at almost 1 am , their’s were shortly before 10 am, so you in fact, are the twit my dear Bella! Although I do agree with that person about the grammar and spelling and after a tiny bit more research I also agree with you, that YouPeopleAreIdiots and morons is the same person. But YouPeopleAreIdiots was on the money, You in fact are a hypocritical, nosey, pontificating reject whose opinion was fun to critique but I am now bored with you. But once again thank you for the mindless challenge. AYDIOS BIAAAAAATCCCHHHH

I used to live on Shockley Drive. I think the house down the road from me was Lizzy’s house, but i was just a young girl when I moved so I dont remember. If it is the same house, which i think it is, its an old beat up house on a hill, with a crappy white picket fence thats falling down. The windows have boards that say KEEP OUT on them and there is supposedly a crazy old man with a shot gun that lives in the back yard in a trailer. If you try to go near it he will shoot you. I dont know if its true, I never tried. But I do know that there are creepy vibes that come from the house and ever since I was little, it freaked me out. Now i am in my 20’s and I took my husband past there and he said it was creepy and weird. I dont know…

I live near this house as well. It is called the Lizzy Lincoln house and while is looks run down and a bit creepy from the outside, the “haunted” house that they put on at Halloween is just for fun.

However, some of the people that work there have claimed to have had experiences that could not be explained. I cannot think of a good example right now, but I am sure when October rolls around the stories will crop up again!

Happy hunting :)

i dont think that the husband would kill lizzy if he was the one cheating if i was her i would have pushed his *** down the stars and fired the housekeeper! but its a very creepy story.
