Mudhouse Mansion

Lancaster, OH

Mudhouse Mansion was Ohio's most photographed haunted ruin — a gaunt 1840s-70s brick farmhouse on a hill near Lancaster, wrapped in invented legends and window-lit dread — until its owner had it demolished in 2015. It survives now only as legend, which is where it always lived.
