Built in 1912 as a private residence, the home has lived many lives—serving as a family estate, restaurant, personal care facility, and today a bed-and-breakfast that openly embraces its paranormal reputation. Over the years, guests and investigators have reported unexplained voices, shadow figures, and other strange activity throughout the building.
In this interview, we dive into the fascinating history of the Hoover House, the people who lived—and died—within its walls, and the chilling paranormal experiences that continue to draw investigators from around the country.

Some believe the intense history of the surrounding area may contribute to the unexplained energy reported inside the house.
