The Haunting

Jenny Jump State Park is a reportedly haunted outdoor haunting site in Hope, New Jersey. Reports tied to the site usually focus on apparitions and shadowy sightings and a tragedy or violent past linked to the location.

Reported account from HauntTracker: There are many different tales, but here is one of many. Jenny was a nine year old girl who lived generations ago. The small white house where she lived stood far below a high cliff.

One day the child was picking berries or playing on the rocks when an Indian surprised her. In great fear she called to her father for help. He cried, "Jump, Jenny Jump!" The obedient child jumped from the high rocky cliff to her death. Her small figure can still be seen wandering around the location it is reported.
