White Lady of Essington

Years ago a couple was traveling on the Tinicum Island Road in Essington on their wedding night.  Near the airport there was a terrible accident and both the bride and groom were killed.  People through the years have said that they have seen a lady wearing a white dress standing or walking along that same road at night.

This female spirit seems to have a special attraction to single men traveling along this stretch of road.  So watch out guys, beware of "the white lady".
