Ebenezer Maxwell House

This large, imposing house in Philadelphia certainly looks lke it could have inspired Charles Addams, creator of the Addams Family, but there's no Lurch or Gomez in sight. The house is generally included on ghost tours in the Germantown area, so there is undoubtedly a story to be found here - I just don't know yet what it is.

 

The Real Baleroy Mansion

I've titled this article as I have because most articles concerning Baleroy show a picture that has nothing to do with the famed haunted mansion of Mermaid Lane in Chestnut Hill. I have no idea of the origins of that incorrect picture, I just know that it's not Baleroy. Built in 1911, Baleroy has plenty of stories of its own to tell, without the need to hide behind a mislabeled photo.
