Paw Paw Tunnel Is A Haunted Tunnel In Maryland That Has A Dark History

Bring a flashlight if you dare journey through Paw Paw Tunnel in Maryland, known for its haunted happenings.Spirits must like me. I have walked through it dozens of times. One time I went through it at 12:30 am because my teenage son never returned from the Paw Paw gas station. I found him at the Canoe camper site. He said he saw something laying on the path, thinking it was a deer he stomped his feet and a cougar stood up towards him so he made himself big and backed up to the camp site where there were campers. I am glad he and I were not attacked.
Why did you tell us this? Bring a flashlight 🔦 and other people!
Has anyone walked through and filmed it at all? Even just a moment or two? We are looking for something to add to a documentary being made about a wonderful singer whose trip through the tunnel was very memorable. Her name was Eva Cassidy.
I have been through the tunnel many times. Always an adventure.
I walked through 1 time.
