THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The historic Alhambra building is connected to an old poisoning story and later reports of strange lights and a pale or white apparition moving through the property.
The Alhambra is a historic apartment building near Detroit’s Masonic Temple. Local lore connects the property with the Rose Barron arsenic-poisoning story and claims that victims of the incident continued to haunt the building. Later stories describe strange lights and a white or pale apparition. The historical poisoning tale and its supernatural aftermath should be treated cautiously, but the location and recurring ghost lore are identifiable. The building has been closed and boarded, so this is not a place for unauthorized entry.
