Location Description:         
 

On one tragic night, a group of slaves, cramped into a dark dirt-floored cellar, sit waiting for the right time to leave their hiding spot in the Hannah House, and head for the freedom of Canada. One of them unknowingly tips over an oil lamp, instantly igniting a fire that traps them there; many to be killed by smoke inhalation and burns within only a few minutes. The dead are buried in the very cellar that claimed their lives, in an attempt to cover up any trace of this incident as quickly as possible.

It is said that there are cold chills doors open and close with no help and in one of the upstairs rooms smells of death. strange noises, smells and apparitions are observed here. July 2005 Update/Additional Information: It is where the wife of Legislator Hannah gave birth to a stillborn baby. People for years have reported a stench of rotting flesh, blood on the ceiling and feelings of dizziness.

This has been KNOWN for Decades.
Hannah House once had "2" levels Below the Basement, since filled in.
One night, there were an approximated 300 runaway slaves in these two levels, one of the Kerosene Lamps got knocked over, and in the resulting shift to get away from the fire, two more lamps got knocked over. More than 100 of the runaway slaves were killed that night, and many died within a few days from Burns of the fire.

For several years, there was a Murder Mystery Dinner in the house. Many reports of figures in Period outfits were seen by attendees of the dinners. "I" saw what looked like a Black Man with a Top Hat at the top of the staircase while at one of the Murder Mystery dinners. I looked away for a second, looked back and he was gone.

The house was used as a "Haunted House" for Charity several Halloweens. This was stopped for two reasons. One, the new owner of the House did not want it, but before he stopped it, the group putting on the Haunted House events had experienced so many "UnExplained" events, that they were so spooked, that they were already considering stopping the events.

I've been there once. We pulled in to the drive to take a tour, but the four of us kids complained of smelling burning flesh (it doesn't smell good) so we never did tour the house. No one was supposed to have been inside the house at the time, but on the way there, we could see a window on the uppermost floor, and the curtain in that window was open, but pulling away, it closed itself. We actually watched the flipping curtain close itself with no one to manipulate it!

This house has a great history but there weren't 300 slaves at any time in this house. It has a bunch of really cheap looking "antiques" inside it. I went on a "ghost hunt" there once and it was ok. They don't show you how to do any of the investigation stuff and I would rate any of the findings suspect- there are just too many people at one time. Also, the time I was there they had someone who was "communicating" with a spirit- through the person. Not very believable.

I have a friend who works at the Hannah house and he saw a little boy there one day  and asked the owner about the kid and the owner said there were no kids there and asked him to describe the kid so my buddy described it and she pulled out a photo of the kid he described who passed away a long time ago. Kinda creepy.
