Rehmeyer's Hollow
Rehmeyer's Hollow, also known as Hex Hollow, is located in Central Pennsylvania (York County) near the Maryland border. The area was brought to national attention by a murder that occurred there in 1928. The name of the hollow was later changed to Spring Valley County Park.
==Murder of Nelson Rehmeyer ==
In 1928, under the malicious advice of a local witch named Nellie Noll (known as the River Witch of Marietta), John Blymire believed that he had been cursed by Nelson Rehmeyer. Blymire and his accomplices broke into Rehmeyer's home to find his copy of the braucherei 'spell book', the Long Lost Friend. Blymire and his fellow conspirators John Curry and Wilbert Hess (who likewise felt victimized by Rehmeyer) were unable to find the book, but did find Rehmeyer himself, whom they killed and mutilated in hopes that this would lift the curse. The resulting trial drew substantial media attention.〔(PARDON BOARD HEARS PROTEST IN 'HEX' CASES ), at the Gettysburg Times; published October 27, 1943; retrieved from Google News Archive June 30, 2014〕〔(Witchcraft Practiced in York County ), at the Gettysburg Times; published February 1, 1969; retrieved from Google News Archive June 30, 2014〕〔(Powwowing Among the Pennsylvania Dutch: A Traditional Medical Practice in the Modern World ), by David W.

Rehmeyer's house where he was murdered still stands on Rehmeyer's Hollow Road. Many locals believe it to be haunted. Teenagers can usually be found down in the hollow legend tripping.
