Burnham
: "Caves in the woods - There were two men shot to death and hidden in one cave a long time ago and they are supposed to haunt it, the `ther one is on the other side of town and is said to be haunted by a boy who was hit by a car riding his bike and was hid in there."
Green Gables
: "formerly listed as The Gables - The ghosts of two small children (a boy and a girl - allegedly siblings) who supposedly died in fire years ago also haunt the entire building. These two playful spirits especially enjoy the company of the current owner''s youngest child. Observers have witnessed evidence of these two ghosts when the younger child throws a ball and the ball stops in mid-air and return to her. These two spirits have shared their names with the owner''s youngest child and she will address them by name. They will often bring "others" along with them when they come to play. If the owner''s children are not there, these two spirits seem to be unhappy and are more likely to allow others to see them or evidence of them. The owner claims that these presences bring "charm" to his establishment and he welcomes everyone to come and take the chance they might have a spooky encounter! If that fails, at least you''ll get a fabulous meal, as the food is top notch!"

Upon entering the cooler, she''ll whisper, "Turn off the lights." She has also been known to disrupt items in the kitchen."
Green Gables
: "2nd Floor - Another continuous sighting involves an older black man who appears to be dressed in clothing from the late 1800s. He haunts the second floor and seems to stay near the front stairway. He is often heard screaming at the current owner''s dog to "shut up" and is generally unpleasant most of the time. The owner''s reside on the third floor and when they first moved in, were unaware of these presences and called the police on several occasions to someone wondering around in their building."
