Nightly walks of Scranton's oldest and most haunted area. The office television show had a whole evening devoted to the Scranton Ghost Walk. The title of the show was Spooky. It is a 90 minute tour that includes the most haunted places in the area. Including where Jason Miller, star of the movie The Exorcist died of a heart attack on May 13, 2001/ 13 was not a lucky number for him. They even take you into a landmark building for a short time that has been certified to be haunted by several paranormal groups. (Submitted by Crystal Wilke)
