Hangman's Hill

The highest point of the The Old Yard , it was upon this hill that Arkham citizens hung the suspected witch, Goody Fowler, in 1704. Legend maintains that spending the night alone on the hill on May Eve or Hallowmass guarantees a visit by Goody’s ghost. Some claim to have attempted the vigil and to have seen nothing. Others swear they have seen Goody’s ghost. A few claim to have talked with her. Some have fled in terror and refused to speak of what happened. A few have disappeared without trace, other than odd hoof-shaped tracks found the next morning.
