Ghostly Encounters
Although St. Joseph’s is still an operational chapel in Philadelphia, some people claim to have seen some odd things happen on the grounds. Many believe that the apparent hauntings date back to the church’s orphanage days.
During that time, yellow fever orphaned numerous American children. The despair and pain that some of these kids felt before passing could still be echoing through the halls of the chapel. People claim to see shadowy figures roaming around the church halls at night. Other report hearing strange otherworldly sounds wailing from inside the church walls.
With all the hype surrounding this historical chapel, we had to make it one of the stops on our ghost tour. Not only is St. Joseph’s Church a landmark in Philadelphia, but it’s also a thrill-worth destination for those interested in ghostly spirits.
