Ca’ Scapini, Italia.
This abandoned and antique town is quite infamous: it’s believed to be infested by the ghost of children whi died here. No one knows for sure what happende: maybe the kids were killed during WWII or maybe they were the illest and weakest, and when the other people left the town they were left behind.
Or maybe it’s all a lie!
McPike Mansion
The McPike Mansion in Alton, Illinois is a mansion that was constructed in 1869. There have numerous reports of paranormal activity occurring in the mansion, including reports of hearing children laughing and sightings of apparitions moving around the halls. These hauntings are somewhat unusual in the sense that they are not linked to a murder or suicide.
The Mudhouse Mansion was a house located in Fairfield County, Ohio. The house was built between 1840- 1850 and was the source of many urban legends. There were rumours that a mass murder had happened in the house, or that a woman who had lived in the house killed all her children there and started to haunt the house after her death. The house was demolished in 2015.
The Beechworth Lunatic Asylum is an abandoned asylum located in Victoria, Australia. It was used as a mental hospital from 1867 to 1995, it is estimated that around 9000 patients died at the asylum. The asylum is said to be haunted and there’s ghost tours almost every night.
The Woelke-Stoffel House (1984), in Anaheim. Local legend holds that the ghost of a prior caretaker haunts this place, albeit in a somewhat benevolent way. The ghost is something of an aspiring matchmaker, and if a couple enters the house and the ghost approves, they will be shoved together as a sort of subtle hint to head to the altar.
Woodchester Mansion in Gloucestershire, England, is another building with a ghostly reputation. Building work has never been completed here, and in the last 200 years workers have repeatedly run from the place and seven builders are rumoured to have died in inexplicable accidents.
Crybaby Bridge
This bridge located off of Egypt Road next to Salem, Ohio. It is one of the many bridges in the United States that’s supposedly haunted. It is said that a crying baby can be heard night and day, locals say the cries belong to a baby who fell off the bridge and drowned. This sight was also marked by the discovery of a woman’s dead body in 2010.
The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Old Town San Diego
50 Berkeley Square:
This four-storey town house was constructed in the 18th century and later became known as “The Most Haunted House in London.”
Legend states that the attic room of the house is haunted by a spirit of a young woman who committed suicide there, apparently throwing herself from one of the top floor windows after being abused by her uncle. She is said to be capable of frightening people to death. The spirit supposedly takes the form of a brown mist, though sometimes it is reported as a white figure. A rarer version of events is that a young man was locked in the attic room, fed only through a hole in the door, until he eventually went mad and died.
In the Victorian era at least two deaths were said to have occurred after people spent the night in the attic room; one being a maid who was found mad and died in an asylum only a few days later, and the other being a sailor who tripped as he fled from the house in fright.

Congelier House
There was once a house in Pittsburgh’s Manchester neighborhood on the Northside. It was known as the “House the Devil Built” and believed to be the most haunted house in the nation.
According to legend, a man by the name of Charles Congelier made a fortune in the south after the Civil War and made his way to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He built a beautiful mansion in the 1860’s at 1129 Ridge Ave. He lived in the house with his wife Lyda and their maid Essie. Charles and the maid were having a secret affair until his wife overheard what was happening in 1871. She collected a knife and meat clever and killed the two lovers. A friend of the Congeliers found Lyda days later in the home rocking in a chair while she hummed lullabies to the severed head of the maid.
The house remained uninhabited for about twenty years due to the horrific tales about the Congeliers. A railroad company purchased the home in 1892 and converted it into apartments for the rail workers. The workers complained of strange sounds and activity and refused to stay in the building. The house went back on the market.

The Old South Pittsburg Hospital was built in 1959 and is located on the foothill of South Pittsburg Mountain, in South Pittsburg, TN. The Hospital was built on a solid Limestone rock, as its foundation and a natural spring running directly under the Hospital and into the most Northwest part of the Tennessee River. During the Civil war South Pittsburgs original name was “Pittsburg Landing” The Ferry landing is only an eighth of a mile from the Hospital that was used by both Confederate and Union Soldiers to land at South Pittsburg, and to travel down to Chickamauga Battlefield. In our City Cemetery there are Union and Confederate Soldiers buried side by side that passed in the line of duty. There is also a small section dedicated to the slaves that lived and died here as well with unmarked headstones.
Some of the Nurses that worked here reported Baby cries or woman screaming, when there was no one there. To this day teams often capture these sounds through EVPs and Video. There seems to be MANY souls that still remain within the aging concrete walls of the Old South Pittsburg Hospital that really want to make contact and be heard.

The Gardner-Pingree House
The Gardner-Pingree House is located at 128 Essex Street in Salem, Massachusetts. The Gardner-Pingree House is now owned by the Peabody Essex Museum. It was built in 1804-1805 by John Gardner, Jr., who was a local merchant. It was later owned by Captain Joseph White. He lived in the house with his family until they were brutally murdered in the house in April 1830. In 1834, David Pingree owned the house. He and his heirs lived there until 1933. Today many believe the house is haunted by the White family. People claim to see ghostly faces looking out of the second floor windows, and many hear ghostly footsteps while touring the house. Some even claim that the grisly murder is reenacted on the anniversary of their death.

It’s now the Erie Museum. It’s absolutely beautiful inside and out. It’s another one of those places that just feels haunted. It was built in 1891
The biggest story that comes from the mansion is the Mad Anthony Wayne story.
Of course, Anthony Wayne was a Revolutionary War hero, he died in 1796, just under 100 years before the mansion was built.
I will have to edit later when I find the exact location, but Wayne died of Gout in December of 1796 at the Block house at Fort Presque Isle. He was buried in the graveyard there in a bit of a rush to bury him, I’m guessing because they said the weather was pleasant when he arrived, which, for Lake Erie in December is possible, but can turn fast, I’m guessing the weather was turning. So they stuck him in a plain coffin in the graveyard, there he stayed for 12 years.
Now, here I’ve heard that he was too tall to fit in his coffin and they had to break his legs to get him in. Because his death was sudden and they buried him quick. I’ve also seen stories that don’t mention this.
Wayne’s son, Isaac, at the plees of Wayne’s daughter (?) Peggy drove up to Erie from Radnor PA (almost 400 mile drive… and by carriage!) to retrieve the General’s body and bring it back to the family plot at St David’s Church in Radnor. Isaac took a little two wheeled carriage and a box for the bones.
Now, after 12 years and probably no prep for burial, you’d think there would be nothing much but bones of old Mad Anthony. (And honestly, this bit is fact, not myth, at least to an extent)
When he was exhumed, much to everyone’s surprise, there was little decay (though there are claims there was some decay in one leg).
Isaac only had a box/chest for the remains and a tiny little carriage, not enough room to carry back an entire body, flesh and all. So the doctor who there, Dr Wallace, had to employ drastic measures.
A common practice by the Native Americans was to dismember the body and boil it to remove the flesh. So that what he did, got a big cauldron and boiled Wayne’s remains until the flesh slid off.
He wasn’t happy about the practice. He gave Isaac the bones then the clothes and remaining flesh went back into the coffin and back into the ground at the Blockhouse.
Isaac took the bones back to Radnor.
Part of the myth here is that on what is now Rt 322, at the time, a bumpy, jostley drive, Isaac, distraught at having to have done that to his father and would have rather left him in Erie (this isn’t leading to anything sinister) didn’t notice that the chest his father’s remains were in had come open and some (or all) of Wayne’s bones bounced out from the bumpy ride and got left behind on the road.
So it’s said that on New Years Day, Wayne’s birthday (at night) Wayne’s restless ghost can be seen going up and down Rt 322 between Erie and Radnor looking for his lost bones.
The Blockhouse was destroyed in 1853 and the grounds leveled, what remained of Wayne was lost, he was never dug up until later… 1878 when it was discovered (yeah, they forgot it was there, because for the most part everyone knew that Wayne had been interred in Radnor). The Historical Society… the Watson-Curtze Mansion, has the coffin lid with it’s brass tacks, remnants of clothing and the dissection instruments. They’re also said to have in the basement the cauldron they boiled Wayne in.
Versions of the story say that Wayne haunts the Watson-Curtze mansion… well more specifically the cauldron (if it is in the basement, I don’t think anyone has OFFICIALLY said they have it, or even if it had survived if it could specifically be traced back to being the one used for Wayne), in the least, if he’s haunting RT 322 because of his bones, he’s probably a little attached to his clothes and original coffin.
Now, that’s the biggest ghost story of the mansion, but, in general, the mansion doesn’t really feel haunted. Except the nursery.
I’ve never heard of anything bad happening in the nursery, but honestly, even the last time I was there (probably about 12 years ago) it still felt creepy, but in a good way.
And if ANYONE can track down a picture from the Erie Times from 1991 that was taken in the Watson-Curtze Mansion Nursery (picture was taken in the fall, I think it ran in the winter, January maybe, but I really don’t remember but it was a couple months after the picture was taken) when they had a doll exhibit going, I will be eternally grateful. (I should call mom and see if she still has a copy of the article).
Gannon University owned the mansion for awhile. In the 90’s. They ran an article about the exhibit of dolls from the family that they were showing. The nursery has this little balcony thing, a few steps up with a very loose railing. It’s roped off because it’s too fragile for people to go on, but I have been up there. The picture I was talking about I was in. They used me for scale, really, and a more humanization (wanna see 90’s clothes and hair? :p ). They had me sit on the stairs and hold a doll. It took some time and a few shots so I was up there for a bit. There was a presence there that I didn’t notice anywhere in the building (though the parlor is a bit creepy, I was told Wayne’s cauldron is located directly underneath in the basement). It’s not evil, it’s not mean, it’s just like some impression still remains with those dolls and space. Like fond memories and happy times.

Haunt Hunter’s Guide to Florida - Region One: Northwest - Lear-Rocheblave House in Pensacola
The property on which the Lear-Rocheblave House now stands, at 214 East Zaragoza Street, changed ownership many times before being purchased by Kate and John Lear, who began construction on the house in 1887. In 1897, it was sold to ship owner Benito Rocheblave and Katherine Elizabeth, his wife. The Rocheblave family lived there until 1912. Although others have owned the house, it is known as the Lear-Rocheblave House. It is considered to be an excellent example of folk Victorian or frame vernacular architecture, identifiable by the irregular floor plan and elaborate roof system. It is a two-story frame house with ornamented porches, noted for the chamfered and bracketed columns. On the second floor, the porches boast a scrollwork balustrade, except for the rear porches, where there are wood railings. The main entrance has a transom and sidelights. It is part of the Historic Pensacola Village tour.

I have always loved this building ever since I was little. About two months ago, this beloved haunted building burnt down & these are the few remains left. It was very heartbreaking when I heard of the news. I’m so glad I was able to get a few photos before it was tore down, completely.
