Well, it seems that there are still some that haven't figured out that the Purgatory House is patrolled. I drove past on route 70 today and saw a white car and two state cruisers with lights flashing. Somebody's parents are going to be mad.
I just saw on facebook a picture of smoke and this is what was said ..... Bye bye purgatory house I wish I could have explored you before you burnt down
I have heard NUMEROUS stories about this place. A bunch of friends would come here to check out in HS. I have heard over the years that the floorboards were falling out and deemed unsafe to venture inside. Crazy story behind it though. Sad to see an urban legend literally go up in smoke!
I thought it was purchased by locals to keep the legend intact...How did it burn down? Wiring etc has been pulled from the house years ago. It wasn't electrical. I wonder if a bum was hiding up in there. Just seems rather fishy.
The website I believe they are referring to is Weird NJ. I have seen it posted there and numerous videos over the years. The thing was a disaster and unsafe. Holes in the floor in some areas. Better it go up in smoke than some idiot die.
Simmer. Simmer. Simmer, okay? I'm kissing the Bumpkin with my last statement and you just HAVE to rub it in, don't ya?? Like OMG! Hahahahahahaha hahahahaha
