I know for fact there tunnels I was there the day Ray Sr. had them dump dirt and stone inside because people were braking into the house and he was afraid someone would get hurt. There was an old man living there at the same time somewhere around 1980, we called him "old man Johnson", he lived there with his wild looking dog that people said was a wolf in the house. The renovations were being done by Ray Ruhlmann II he did a little work at a time on the house, roof, trim, window framing etc. I laugh at all the stories that come about on this house. I have been in it many times with my grandfather who worked for the Ruhlmann's and I worked for Ray II myself as a teenager and went there daily to pick things up. Sure it was dark and creepy, but nothing haunting. There were some old antique fixtures in the house people kept stealing, which was the reason for boarding it up tight.

I don't quite know why I am drawn to this place. It's been sold and hopefully the new owners will restore. The last time someone tried to do that, the workmen just left their scaffolding and left. I somehow remember that being talked about when it happened in the 90's. As far as the hauntings go, remember, the slaves who died there were considered insane so that could be why they stay.

On the other hand, coming from everything that I have experienced, I only hope when other reviews pack on that people today continue to be on issue and not embark on a tirade involving some other news of the day. Anyway, thank you for this exceptional piece and though I do not concur with the idea in totality, I respect your standpoint.<a href="http://www.sellurhousesmart.com/" rel="nofollow">sell my house fast austin</a><br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10543786563194338218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978704047270550518.post-47776116544816667932013-02-23T13:07:47.116-05:002013-02-23T13:07:47.116-05:00You're looking in the wrong place.

Hitchens, aside from being an engineer of the Erie Canal, was a noted abolitionist. No slaves ever lived in this house. Slavery did not exist in New York State in 1834. If anything, the house might possibly have been a stop on the Underground Railroad, meaning escaping slaves were given aid here. Why would former slaves haunt a place that helped them achieve their freedom?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2978704047270550518.post-91259586552449070682012-04-12T02:32:45.358-04:002012-04-12T02:32:45.358-04:00This house looks really incredible and scary yet f...This house looks really incredible and scary yet for me living their is interesting.

There were people in North America before Europeans discovered it. It seems like there should be more Native American ghosts around.<br /><br />Do you know if there's some sort of limit as to how long a ghost would stick around?Lydiahttp://www.on-the-other-hand.comnoreply@blogger.com
