This week, Alex and Cassie talk to Mary Ellen Bennett, owner of the Phillips-McLure House on Wheeling Island. She has owned the home for more than two decades and believes that the spirit of the home's namesake - John McLure Jr. - still is present.
Mary Ellen has helped restore the home and put it back into use by running a successful business. Along the way, she's had a few experiences that led us all to believe that the home's former owner might be sticking around to keep an eye on things. Listen and decide for yourself.
We also hear from Taylor Abbott, a local historian who provides insight into what Wheeling was like while John McLure was alive and his ties to Wheeling's boating industry and beyond!
