From Poor Farm to Paranormal Hotspot: The Chilling Legacy of Ashmore Estates
What began as a 19th-century refuge for the poor, sick, and mentally ill has transformed into one of Illinois’ most famously haunted locations. Originally known as the Coles County Poor Farm, Ashmore Estates bears the weight of over 150 years of hardship, loss, and transition—from pauper house to psychiatric hospital to abandoned ruin, and finally, to a meticulously restored destination for history buffs and paranormal investigators alike.
With countless confirmed deaths on the property and decades of institutional care, it’s no wonder many believe spirits still linger. From the clearly seen apparition of Joe Bloxom to the playful ghost of young Elva tugging at guests’ clothes, the estate seems alive with echoes of its past. Add to that unexplained voices, shadow figures, and the aggressive energy said to push visitors in the boiler room, and Ashmore Estates becomes far more than just a historical site—it’s a place where the past refuses to rest.

A Historic Courthouse Turned Museum — Is the Pioneers Museum Haunted?
What began as a courthouse in 1903 has transformed into the Colorado Springs Pioneers Museum, preserving the region’s rich history within its grand halls. Once the site of trials, legal battles, and even a murder, this former courthouse boasts an iconic clocktower that has stood watch over the city for more than a century. While its exhibits offer a glimpse into the past, some believe the building’s former occupants never truly left.
The most famous ghost said to linger here is Eddie Beals, a custodian who was tragically shot by an employee in 1959. Soon after his death, reports of eerie encounters began, with security guards avoiding the areas Eddie frequented in life. The building’s birdcage elevator, known to move on its own and mysteriously open its doors, is said to be one of his favorite haunts. Staff often blame unexplained movements, shadowy figures, and flickering lights on Eddie’s mischievous spirit—but could there be more than one ghost lingering in these halls?
With cold spots, strange sensations, and decades of paranormal reports, the Pioneers Museum might hold more secrets than its exhibits reveal. Are these occurrences simply the quirks of an aging building, or is something—or someone—still making its presence known?

What spirits might remain in Washington's oldest operating lodging, the haunted Shelburne Hotel?
For over a century, the Shelburne Hotel has stood as a historic gem in Seaview, Washington. As the longest continuously operating hotel in the state, it has witnessed countless stories—from its beginnings in 1896 as a luxurious retreat for wealthy travelers to the dramatic moment it was physically moved across the street by horse-drawn power. Over the years, the Shelburne has changed hands, expanded, and been lovingly preserved, but some believe its past residents never truly left.
Ghostly encounters have become just as much a part of the hotel’s legacy as its rich history. Guests and staff report eerie happenings, from disembodied footsteps echoing through the hallways to the unsettling presence of The Man Upstairs—a spirit believed to be the original owner, Charles Beaver. Rooms 2, 5, 6, 8, and 16 each carry their own spectral legends, including Nina, a mischievous ghost known to wake guests, and Annie May, a benevolent spirit said to bless couples married beneath her favorite tree. Meanwhile, Georgina’s friendly apparition lingers on the stairs, while a grumpy former worker makes his presence known near the maintenance closet.
From phantom massages to locked doors that defy explanation, the Shelburne’s hauntings are as diverse as they are chilling. Is this historic hotel merely preserving its past, or do some souls refuse to check out?
