THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Blakeney House is rumored to be haunted by former residents whose spirits remain attached to the historic home. Visitors have reported hearing footsteps, seeing shadow figures, and experiencing unexplained cold spots inside the building. Some also describe doors moving on their own and an overall eerie atmosphere.
The 1903 Blakeney House has been a private home, several restaurants and now is used for bible and mission training for the company Youth With a Mission. Although the company maintains that the house is not haunted, it is in fact said to be haunted by three ghosts: William Blakeney himself, a lady in red, and a young girl. Witnesses have described cold gusts, footsteps, candles that light themselves, locked doors that suddenly open.
