Paranormal Specialists Observe Twain House

Strange Experiences Have Been Reported By Staff

Paranormal specialists checked out the Mark Twain house in Hartford this summer and found some indications of “strange stuff." However, the staff is claiming even stranger things that have been happening there.

Interpreter Jason Scappaticca was giving a tour of the historic house when he said he turned to see the ghostly apparition of a woman in Victorian dress passing down the hall.

He said, “When I turned around, I noticed that she was actually transparent. I could see her and she walked down the hall and then walked into the nursery”

Several people have said have seen a young woman who is believed to be Twain’s eldest daughter Suzi who died in the house.

These kinds of occurrences were enough to draw the attention of the producers of the hit Sci-Fi show, “Ghost Hunters” to possibly tape an episode of the show there.

The Twain house will be conducting ‘graveyard shift’ ghost tours on Friday nights during October for those people who are interested. Those tours will begin on Oct. 9.
