Richmond Haunts long-form
Haunted Houses, Volume 1: Ackley House, Sallie House and Rowan Oak
Episode notes
About this episode
| A haunting feels especially personal when the setting is a home. Volume 1 visits seven American houses and residential institutions where family history, architectural change and later reports of unexplained activity have become closely intertwined.
The route begins with Ackley House in Nyack, New York, whose haunting became part of a famous real-estate case. It continues to Sallie House in Atchison, Kansas, Whispers Estate in Mitchell, Indiana, and Hampton Lillibridge House in Savannah, Georgia. The final locations are George Stickney House in McHenry County, Ashmore Estates in Illinois and Rowan Oak, William Faulkner’s home in Oxford, Mississippi. The episode keeps verified ownership and building history separate from resident testimony, investigation claims and folklore. |
