Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Pennsylvania

My 19 year old daughter went to a party and did not return home that night. The following day I told her that she needed to return home and she said that she was moving out of the house. I said ok. The next night she text me and asked if I would let her into the house and I said yes when I got home but that if she intended to stay at the house that there were house rules and she needed to follow them. She said no that she was moving out. She said that she wanted her stuff and I finally got it together and put it outside. She came and picked it up and I told her that I may have forgotten a few things that I would get it to her at a much later date.. She got all pissy with me and she got a constable. Finally last night she received the last of her things but she still insists that there are more. I told her that was all there was and she still insists that she has items in the house.

While the constable was in the house there was a number of items that she said that she didn't want.

Now she is telling me that she has legal rights to the house can come and go as she pleases. Is going to sew me for the value of the property that she does not have in her possession and I have no ideas what to do..? She has not been at the residence since October 31 2014. I have given her a couple of opportunities to try and work things out and move back in but she has said no. I have all of this in writing.. by text messages and by email. She never paid rent. I have asked the post office not to deliver her mail to the house because she does not live there anymore and anyone who calls the house I tell them she no longer lives there. She states that she can still use the house as her legal residence What should I do?
