Manage episode 429618483 series 3450446
What happens when a mix-up leads you to Fort Wayne instead of Detroit? Join us on a serendipitous adventure through a historic mansion brimming with paranormal activity and hidden stories. We were graciously welcomed by two wonderful guides who unraveled the fascinating history of a mansion built in 1893 by Robert Clarabelle, a notable natural gas investor. You'll get to hear about the exquisitely preserved ballroom, the intriguing third floor, and the eerie presence of spirits named Andy and Gail. Not to mention, the vivid tales of the mansion's original fireplaces, a male-only poker room, and mysterious light figures caught in photographs.
As our journey unfolds, we transition to a building that served as a funeral home from 1926 to 2018, layered with its own haunting narratives. Discover the Spanish-speaking servant spirit named Julia and the enigmatic grand mason spirit, whose apparition has been recurrent in photographs since last October. This hooded figure's peculiar attachment to one of the volunteers adds an extra layer of mystique. The episode also delves into eerie interactions with children spirits and the strange phenomena surrounding an old elevator. We wrap up on a light note, with a chuckle-worthy email misunderstanding, ensuring this episode offers a perfect blend of history, mystery, and a touch of humor. Come along for an unforgettable experience through the supernatural corners of Fort Wayne, Indiana.
