About the author

Thomas White is the author of Ghosts of Southwestern Pennsylvania and Witches of Pennsylvania: Occult History & Lore, both published by History Press. Ghosts of Southwestern Pennsylvania (2010) collects regional ghost tales, including the Summit Cut Bridge legend and stories tied to local landmarks, and is presented by the publisher as the work of a local author recounting the area's haunted history. Witches of Pennsylvania traces the state's history of witchcraft and folk magic from William Penn's 1684 witch trial through beliefs brought by English and German settlers, including cases where those beliefs led to real consequences. Both books treat their subjects as regional history and folklore rather than instruction in magical practice, aimed at readers interested in Pennsylvania's local ghost and witchcraft traditions.
