The Quaker State, the Keystone State, the Coal State – Pennsylvania is called them all. But we like to call it the weird state, because there’s enough strange stuff going on here to fill an encyclopedia, or better yet, a book appropriately called Weird Pennsylvania. A brand-new entry in the best-selling Weird series, Weird Pennsylvania is packed with all the info about the Quaker State that your history teacher never taught you. Below you will find links to some of the weirdest stories from Pennsylvania, but remember, the tales on this website are only the tip of the iceberg. To get the full weirdness we recommend you buy Weird Pennsylvania the book...
