I remember hearing something about Corvette Hollow, but I don't know if that's the same as the Green Man.

Never mind, Google helped me...

hauntsandhistory - Three Rivers Haunts & History page 3Â* Â* Â*The legends, lore, and ghost tales of Allegheny, Armstrong,

"CORVETTE TUNNEL (South Park, Allegheny County) Located just before the infamous Green Man's Tunnel, this spot is haunted by the spirit of a girl that shuffled off this mortal coil when she slammed her 'Vette into another car while drag racing. If you drive through at the stroke of midnight, you can hear her screams, screeching tires, racing motors, and see the lights of the Corvette. There's also a small creek running alongside the [SIZE=2]tunnel[/SIZE][SIZE=2]. It's said that a man killed his wife and disposed of her body by chopping it up and tossing it in that creek. If you're walking through the tunnel, her invisible spirit clutches at your legs, begging for help."[/SIZE]

Don't know how true that is.

True. My sister-in-law's nephew by marriage was one on the "actors" in it.

Can you link to anything about it? I can't find anything.
