by: Paranormal Junkie

The historical society is doing a great job raising money to restore and take care of the place. Paranormal teams can investigate and the even offer investigations to the general public. The fees are low and they all go towards the renovations. You can contact faithparanormal@yahoo.com or the mansion directly for reservations.

by: Anonymous

I've heard that the mansion estate was sold to Lancaster Co Historical Society for $1 with the understanding it was never to be sold again. It is up to them to raise money and restore this piece of history.

As this is a very unique property with a ton of history,I am wondering why the preservation society does not sell this to someone who can afford to restore it back to what it once was. I for one know of two different parties that are interested in this property.If they ever decide to sell post a comment here with contact information and I will make sure both parties get it ASAP.One of the parties is even willing to host a event or two through out the year to raise funds for their other projects.

by: Patricia

Hello,

This is really interesting. I'm wondering where this historical Haldeman Mansion is located. I'm sure many of the paranormal investgators that visit this website would love to explore Locust Grove. I've always loved hearing about Indian sacred land and the spirits that are still roaming there.
