The Weirdest Thing In The World: Haunted Structures
Posted by Justin on August 7th, 2009
We’re going a little different this week for our Weirdest Thing in the World hunt and demanding that you send us the oddest haunted structures on the planet. Houses, saloons, trailer parks, they’re all fair game.
The rules are:
– You must have a picture or official illustration.
– Make sure you include a brief background on why it’s so odd.
Your baseline above is the Loveland Castle, as discussed in this week’s monster column by Matt Finley. This ornate structure was constructed by a wealthy Ohio magnate who imported countless artifacts from Europe to decorate his new home. Locals believed that many served as vessels for evil spirits who continue to haunt the countryside.
Email all submissions to JustinRobertYoung@Gmail. I’ll see you kids in the Weird Things TinyChat room at 5:30 p.m. EST where we will hash out the ultimate champion.

I seem to remember visiting a castle or castles in Ohio on vacation when I was a kid. I'd forgotten all about them. I don't specifically remember the one pictured here, although I might have visited it.
