Two ghosts are said to reside here. One is called the White Witch. According to legend, she was executed for being a witch when the children she was caring for all died of illness. The second ghost is Sarah Norton, a woman who was said to have been run over by a carriage. Both women appear in white, so it is thought that they are often confused by those who see them.

The white witch and Sarah Norton are two in the same.
Weird green orb
Crazy freaky
That green “orb” was not something supernatural. It was the sun hitting the lense of the camera. that made it.
This location is haunted i have witnessed with my 2 children an husband while on a hike in the morning a white soirit running up an down a edge of the hill next to the path an run straighg off i to the trees which i thought was maybe a picnic area it was a straight 200+ down about 300 feet away from where we seen the spirit there was a extremly old tree house in a oak tree these days its burned down
We were in the cemetery. I was windy everywhere in the Hills but in the cemetery.
Been living in Pittsburg since 93’. No sign whatsoever of the white witch or any spirit in that matter. Been to rose hill cemetary many times, only thing that’s strange is there’s barely any wind and it’s quiet up there in the cemetery.
I went there like 4 years ago and got a EVP recorded where I can here “Get out of here”.
That’s scary as hell! I heard about stories so I never go late but I will hike and so far have seen nothing. But I stay along the hiking paths. I’ve been to the cemetery but I don’t walk passed it.
I seen her in knightsen ca white smokey figure almost gliding down delta road like a roll of fog At a high speed but a face looking at me it lasted about 8 seconds and she disappeared at the sellers and delta 4 way stop
I live so close to there
