WYALUSING, Pa., July 7 (UPI) -- A 91-year-old Pennsylvania woman living with the corpses of her husband and twin sister will build a crypt to keep them around, an official says.

Jean Stevens' husband died 10 years ago and she dug up his body that was buried out back of her Wyalusing-area home and set him on a couch in the garage. Her sister's body is kept in a spare room where she is dressed in a housecoat and gets fresh makeup daily, Philadelphia's WTXF-TV reported.

Police say the embalmed bodies were discovered in mid-June.

Bradford County's district attorney says Stevens plans to build a crypt on her property because she wanted to be able to see them and talk to them, WTXF-TV said.

One unnamed area resident said Stevens is well known, having lived in the area "for awhile."

"And, the other thing is, as far as being friendly, I mean she's tops," the resident said.
