Investigators Notes
Becky Ray:This investigation was part of a paranormal investigation offered through the Atchison Chamber of Commerce.
For the most part, this was definitely the most quiet this house has been while I visited in a long time.
There were a few phantom smells which were new, such as roses and baby powder, but people did also smell the whiskey scent and old perfume. I believe at least one other person smelled the rotting vegetable odor we have encountered in the past.
Other occurrences included once again we had at least one person who was overcome by sadness while we were upstairs and a couple of people mentioned the feeling of being touched.
Question: When did the phenomena start?
Answer: First reports were in the early 1990s, however it is possible activity was happening earlier and not discussed.

PHOTOS
Although this is now the back of the the house, this was the original front of the home and the front entrance. The style of the period is much more evident than from the more "contemporary" porch side. Also note the changes to the home since a similar photo I took during our investigation in 2005.
