i live a little farther away, in souderton, pa (near horsham). i have been there before. i know where you are talking about. i was told it was called "hells bloody gates." the story i was told is that a nutty rich gentleman used to live there. well supposedly he was curious about watching people die in agony. so he had a party one night and decided to kill one of his guests. the one who was last to leave.well anyways after watching them die an agonizing painfull death (was not told how they died) he thought he would severe the head and hang it on his wrought iron fence/ gate at the end of his driveway. well to add to the peculiarness of the story he decided before disposing of the body he would paint the fence red... with human blood. well as the story goes no matter how many times the fence is painted the red color of the blood "bleeds" through the new paint. hence the name "hells bloody gate." but as to how you get there i couldn't tell you. although my friend can tell me how. its just a matter of trying to get ahold of him.
