Tori leads off this episode in Illinois in a famous haunted space, the Coles County Poor Farm, otherwise known as Ashmore Estates. She teased this story last episode with the Parke County Poor Asylum in Indiana.  The timeline for this property is long and well documented, and well represented in the media.  Covered by several paranormal investigators in both print and screen.  From an actual poor farm to it’s current state of as a haunted attraction                available for investigations. Did I mention there are TWO cemeteries there? GH did a very good job debunking some of the claims of hauntings at this locale.  Krysti brings us back to Indiana with the odd story of Watson Brown and his wandering corpse.  The son of the abolitionist John Brown died during the Raid at Harpers Ferry and the roundabout way he was returned home after his death. Krysti grabbed another story from home as well, which sent us back to Irvington and the tale of another haunted house, the Forrest Howe House now known as the Irvington United Methodist Church. Krysti gets to tell ghost stories with this one. Floating women through locked doors and getting locked into rooms without locks. From there we get a bonus story from Scotland (thanks again Ghost) and the tale of the miniature coffins.
