A recent article at ARL Now reports: “After a number of delays, the long awaited construction on the Overlee Community Association pool and clubhouse has begun.”

Delays in obtaining permits for the North Arlington, New Jersey [map] project were a problem. But that article doesn’t bring up another, more frightening issue that delayed the building project. A run-in with a ghost had brought work to a complete stand-still earlier this year, and frightened one worker so badly that he walked off the job.

Two months ago, an old Victorian house sat on the site, but as crews began demolishing the property to build a new club house, one of the workers spotted a young girl inside of the building, reports WJLA.

The girl is thought to be Margaret Febrey, who was laid to rest in Oakwood Cemetery almost 100 years ago.

“He said he saw this little girl in the window … and he went in and couldn’t find her, and on his way out he saw her on the steps and turned around and didn’t see her,” said Jeff Schreiner, construction supervisor.

The encounter was too much for the construction worker. He immediately packed his stuff and walked off the job permanently.
