The House of Death – Greenwich Village, New York
The house is considered to be New York City’s most haunted building, seeing that there are around 22 ghosts who have been spotted roaming the halls. Writer Mark Twain lived here from 1900 to 1901, claiming to have experienced supernatural incidents, like a wood paneling moving in mid-air. His ghost has been seen walking down the stairs and in 1937, a mother and daughter bumped into his ghost perched on a window seat. This was the site of a number of incidents, including a murder-suicide and the beating death of a 6-year-old.

In 1957, a famous actress and psychic Jan Bryant Bartell felt a “monstrous moving shadow” follow her around the home. She saw a man standing in the hallway and when she reached out to touch it, she felt “A substance without substance. Chilly, damp. Diaphanous as marsh mist or a cloud of ether. I could feel my fingers freeze at the tips. They were numb, and yet they tingled. In the split second between contact and recoil, the scent came. Fragile and languorous. And sweet; unbearably, cloyingly sweet.”
