Once the home to Nathanael Greene, a Continental Army general during the American Revolution, the homestead dates back to 1770. He built the home, in fact, several years before the war broke out.

Greene would be just one of several occupants over the years. After he and his wife, Catherine, left the home, Jacob Greene, his brother moved in. The home would then house two more generations of Greene family members, including Elizabeth Margaret.

Today, visitors can tour the home on the select days from April through October, getting a glimpse into the family and the home. If you’re lucky, you might also experience something otherworldly.

Tales of the paranormal have drifted out of the homestead, originally known as Spell Hall (quite fitting, isn’t it?), for years. Are they true? You really have to decide for yourself.

Don’t be too surprised if you hear voices when no one is around and catch sight of apparitions darting throughout the house. You might even hear footsteps in areas that are empty.

Others tell of hearing horses galloping toward the home, leading a carriage, and of smelling freshly-baked bread in the home.
