Some of the ghosts believed to be responsible for objects flying through the air and people being scratched and shoved include a little girl who was murdered there.
Most of these haunted houses have failed at becoming the home of new owners. Now, many of them sit empty and abandoned or turned into a travel destination for paranormal enthusiasts. So, your new home can’t be that haunted that you’re willing to pack up shop, rent a moving truck, and abandon it altogether… Or is it?
