Beneath the quiet town of Ogdensburg, New Jersey, lies the Sterling Hill Mine, a labyrinth of tunnels stretching deep into the earth—and, some say, into the afterlife. With more than 77 recorded deaths and countless stories of strange lights, disembodied voices, and shadowy figures, this mine has earned a chilling reputation as one of New Jersey’s most haunted places.

In this episode of Ghostly Podcast, Pat and Rebecca descend into the darkness to explore the legends and evidence behind the hauntings of Sterling Hill. From the ghostly miner known as Bicycle Pete to whispers caught on EVP deep in the tunnels, the spirits of Sterling Hill seem determined to make their presence known.

Will you believe the hauntings are real—or just echoes of the past trapped in stone?

Evidence Discussed

·        Whispered voices recorded in the tunnels saying “I’m scared.”

·        Apparition of “Bicycle Pete”, seen pedaling near the mine long after his death.

·        Shadow figure and ghostly push in the old dynamite storage room.

·        Dark shape by the elevator shaft, where miners once descended to their deaths.

·        Residual energy—flickering lights, cold spots, and phantom footsteps thought to be miners still working below.
