Notoriously Haunted Indiana Mansion Hosting Paranormal Festival
Now this is the perfect location for a haunted festival.
The Historic Hannah House
Located in Indianapolis sits a historic house that has a reputation for being notoriously haunted. The legends change depending on where you look, but one thing remains constant, many folks have heard, seen, and felt strange things when they've entered the Hannah House.
According to Indy Encyclopedia, in the 1970s the family that owned the Hannah House worked to get the Hannah House on the National Register of Historic Places. They would begin holding events at the Hannah House to help offset the costs of maintaining the historic home. People loved enjoying murder mystery dinners, art shows, and more events held at the Hannah House, and even amongst the parties and events, rumors of hauntings still flourished.
Indy Encyclopedia explains:
With more people visiting the house, the number of otherworldly experiences increased. People claimed that the smell of burning candles wafted down from the attic, where servants who had lived in the house supposedly had kept an altar. Several people have mentioned experiencing the foul smell of rotting flesh in the first bedroom at the top of the stairs. Multiple ghosts have been spotted, including a man in a black suit who walks the upstairs hall, a woman near a window on the second floor, and a stillborn baby–presumed to be Elizabeth’s.
With this many legends surrounding the Hannah House, you can imagine this would be the perfect venue for a paranormal festival.
