Real Estate Unique Homes: If You Dare to Buy Real-Life Haunted Houses, There are Six Houses You Can Buy Right Now

If you're brave enough, you can buy one of these six real-life haunted houses - if you dare.

The Priestly House at E Fulton Street, Canton, MS is priced at $850,000. It was built by Dr. James Priestly, Canton's first postmaster and one of its earliest doctors, around 1852. Dr. Priestly and his wife, Susan, both died in the home. In 2002, the owner claimed he saw the figure of a woman near a doorway.

According to Realtor, the house at Charming Forge Road, Womelsdorf, PA has a price of $850,000. The property was bought in 1760 by Henry William Stiegel. It's said that the door slams even though it remains latched.

The Ann Starrett Mansion at Clay Street, Port Townsend, WA priced at $750,000 was built by George Starrett for his wife, Ann, in 1889. The couple died more than a century ago, but people claim their ghosts remain, although they're friendly ghosts.

The most expensive haunted house of the six is the Schweppe Mansion at North Mayflower Road, Lake Forest, IL which is priced at $9.95 million. The mansion was built in 1917 as a wedding gift from Laura Shedd's parents to her and her husband, Charles Schweppe. After the death of Charles, the mansion remained vacant for 46 years. Legend claims that the ghosts of the couple and their servants wandered the halls, and a single window in the master bedroom remained spotless while the others were dusty.

Fox News said the extraordinary 1927 Frank Lloyd Wright home at Franklin Avenue, Los Angeles, CA, which is priced at $4.79 million, is rumored to be the killing ground of Elizabeth Short, aka the "Black Dahlia," in 1947. People have claimed seeing shadows of severed bodies and hearing voices and chains dragging.

Built in the 1880s, the Pillars Estate is another haunted house in W County House Road, Albion, NY priced at $1 million. The 13,286-square-foot mansion is haunted by ghostly children who want to play hide-and-seek with guests and repeatedly strike the piano keys.
