These photos are of the same tree, taken only seconds apart. Do you think the wisps are the spirits that haunt the Whaley House? #thewhaleyhouse #whaleyhouse #ghost #ghosts #spirits #haunting #ghosthunting

I frequent Old Town as often as I can and almost always stop in for a self-guided day tour of The Whaley House Museum. Here are a couple of photos I snapped before my phone died during one of these visits.

These photos are of the living quarters, which for the last 13 years has been restored to what it may have looked like in that era. A busy time period in which the home was occupied by residents, a general store, a courthouse, and the Tanner Troupe Theatre group in the upstairs front bedroom. 

The courtroom was initially built by Thomas Whaley as a granary in 1856. The rest of the home was added on beginning in late 1856 and was finished the following year. Stories passed down and whispered around town for over 150 years tell a tale of death plaguing the land that the Whaley house was built on. Just before Thomas Whaley purchased the land, a 6'4" man named Yankee Jim Robinson, a tried and convicted thief, was hung by the gallows to his slow death. Years after the home was built and scenery changed, one thing remained constant: death in the home. Among the Whaleys that have passed in the home or on the Whaley grounds were: 18-month old Thomas Whaley who contracted and died from Scarlet fever (1858), Violet Eloise who committed suicide after a divorce and deep depression (1885), Anna Whaley (1913), Francis Hinton Whaley - the eldest son who began restoration of the home in 1909 - (1914), and Lillian Corinne - the youngest Whaley and last to reside in the home - (1953).

The Whaley House was the very first two-story brick home in San Diego at the time, and eventually began to deteriorate around the time Lillian resided in the home alone. Restoration efforts continue, thanks to the Save Our Heritage Organization (SOHO), and each visit to the museum contributes to the continuous restoration of this haunted gem in Old Town San Diego.
