Camp Farnsworth operates as a seasonal camp facility in central Vermont. The primary gathering and performance space is known as the Keushk, a multi-purpose theater and gathering hall. The camp facilities include residential areas consisting of tree house units and traditional dormitory buildings, creating a unique rustic infrastructure.
The primary paranormal phenomenon involves a female apparition designated 'The Lady of the Lamp.' This entity appears as a woman carrying a kerosene lamp, walking deliberately toward individuals who find themselves alone between the camp's residential tree house units and dormitory buildings. The apparition moves slowly, maintaining apparent eye contact with witnesses. The phenomenon is sufficiently consistent that campers recognize the encounter pattern.
Environmental anomalies manifest in the Keushk (the main gathering hall). Sounds originating from outside the building become distinctly muted when heard from within, suggesting either acoustic properties or paranormal sound suppression. Additionally, doors in the structure exhibit unusual behavior: they do not remain open as expected when pushed or propped. The phenomenon recurs regularly, suggesting either mechanical peculiarity or persistent paranormal interference.
Cold spots are reported throughout the camp, particularly in isolated areas. Visitors describe sudden temperature drops and sensations of unease when alone. The phenomenon pattern suggests either an intelligent entity responsive to human presence or residual haunting energy concentrated in specific locations.
The identity of the apparition remains speculative. Local folklore attributes the haunting to camp founder Madam Farnsworth or a camper/counselor who died during camp history, though documentation remains absent.
