About Jenny Gaffron Woytek

Come for the photos. Stay for the ghost stories.

I blog here about the places, people, history, and lore that shaped me.

In Greek mythology, the muses of music and poetry lived on Mount Parnassus.

I live along the Allegheny River in Parnassus (New Kensington), Pennsylvania.

I grew up in small towns in Western and Central Pennsylvania.
