I only mention it because they caught him only a few miles from my house. Found in an old hangar on an abandoned resort. I just drove through there on Monday. Crazy.

His sister said he did something 'messed up' but he is 'not a psycho.' So that clears that up nicely.

Eric Frein. Fun fact: I went to high school with this guy.

A few times. Honestly, I'm surprised he is still alive.

Haha. That'll save the jury some time.

Ahh. I didn't recognise him. I have heard/read about him on the news, but haven't read anything about in the news here in Norway since early october so I thought he'd been caught weeks ago.

Whoa whoa whoa. Abandoned airport? Drag on the runway? I call first race.

I had no idea where that runway was. I always knew there was one back there somewhere but not it's exact location.

wait. abandoned resort? what is the name of that place, I have a strange fascination with that stuff.

That's crazy. My roommate grew up over in Allentown.

Birchwood resort and air park.

not far at all.
![]() 10/30/2014 at 22:46 |
|
Nope. Though he didn't know the cities up there because he doesn't normally go north-by-northeast out of Allentown.

Glad to hear! I have a few friends who are PA State troopers (Troop K). I had heard some were volunteering during their time off to go up north to help look for him and was a bit worried for them

I think what you're talking about seems to be called the Penn Hills Resort. Was a tacky Honeymoon type of place that got left behind for bigger and better tourist destinations as travel got cheaper. You should totally check it out when there aren't killers hiding in it ;)

That's a shame. There are some great roads that way.

They are indeed two separate resorts. Penn Hills was arguably the larger of the two, with Birchwood being more of a small hideaway resort. Now I really want to go and take pictures, but it might be smart to wait awhile.
I've provided an expertly annotated map.

damn, there's a lot of abandoned resorts in your town. We have an abandoned drag strip up here, but considering that it sits next to an active Air base, I don't think it's too smart to snoop.

Who is that guy?
