According to the Historic Hannah Mansion's website, urban legends claim the owner of the Hannah House, Alexander Hannah took a strong stance against slavery, and the house was once a part of the Underground Railroad.  Unfortunately, tragedy struck this historic house one winter night.

Now one of the most told urban legend stories of The Historic Hannah Mansion is that one cold winter night, a group of slaves were passing through Indiana as they were making their way to downtown Indianapolis.  They stopped at Hannah Mansion for the night ... then Alexander could take them in for shelter and they would have a safe place for the night.  So, Alexander took them down to the basement and gave them food and water.  As they were laying on beds made of hay, a lantern tipped over and caused a fire in the basement where they were sleeping.  Urban Legend say's that they all passed away that night and since it was winter, Alexander  couldn't give them a proper Christian burial so he had to bury them in ground of the basement at The Historic Hannah Mansion.

There are many claims of paranormal activity in the house, and people who drive by claim to have seen an older man in the window waving as they pass. Could it be the spirit of the late Alexander Hannah?
