The GHOST of SCHAMBACHER'S TAVERN | Berks County, PENNSYLVANIA

Hey guys! Happy Hump Day!

I had no idea the Schambacher Tavern in Albany Township, Berks County, PA even existed until I read this story, and several others during my research that followed, of course.

Schambacher's Tavern is located on Hawk Mountain Road and has officially been added to my 'Must Go' list of spooky places to explore in Pennsylvania given the history of not only the tavern but the old war-land it overlooks.

Today, the Hawk Mountain Sanctuary owns the tavern and uses it to house sanctuary personnel, but I still think it's worth the trip to see the old inn and the land around it that allegedly carries some very dark energy from centuries ago. Besides, Hawk Mountain in general is a beautiful place to go for a hike and immerse yourself in our amazing PA nature after you creep yourself out over the paranormal stuff beforehand!

If you have personal stories about past visits to Schambacher's Tavern, share them in the comments!

Stay tuned for more spooky, creepy, and enlightening PA stories that air on my channel every Wednesday!

I was a summer intern at Hawk Mountain in 2006 and had the opportunity to visit the tavern. There’s definitely a lot of lore surrounding the area, and it’s very creepy.

If you don't know already, Charlie Adams has done a great job of documenting local history ghost tales like this one. He published a number of books which relate the stories. I got to hear him tell the tales when I was 7 or 8. Now, as a grown man, I'm a little nervous about stopping to look around certain parts of Eckville

It’s now a private residence and I reached out to Hawk Mountain and the women was very rude and cut me off when I mentioned we are doing a documentary on the paranormal of Berks County, she then hung up. No one is getting inside that place. Just the areas around it
