The landmark of what is suspected to be one of the most haunted houses in Ohio is opening their doors to visitors to spend the night. Would you do it?
Ohio City’s historic Franklin Castle announced that guests can start booking overnight stays at the historic yet haunted old home. Franklin Castle is a historic landmark on Franklin Boulevard. It is also known as the Tiedemann house as the Tiedemann's were the home’s first owners. Why is this house so haunted? Well, the house was built in 1883 by Hannes Tiedemann after he tore down another home on the property where several of his kids died. Tiedemann’s first wife passed away inside Franklin Castle in the 1890s. A partial skeleton was even found inside the walls in the 1970s.
On Christmas Eve, the Franklin Castle Facebook page announced that they would open the doors to guests, stating "Friends of Franklin Castle, rejoice!; for on this Christmas night onward, the kastle is awaiting you to STAY THE NIGHT! Yes, from here on, and FOREVER."
Guests can book on most Fridays or Saturdays: Emma’s Rooms, Johanne’s Rooms, Louise’s Dwelling and The Kastle. They recommend not staying by yourself for the night, so be sure to bring a friend!
Prices range from $175 per person to $245 per person and for more information or to book, click here.
