so me and 5 other friend just got back from the house. it is in bad shape but your can still get in from the basement. and it is still very haunted. we went all the way upstairs and we did evp and i must say we got a few responses. i heard a young lady cry and we heard foot steps goin up the stairs and a door close. and in the recorder it said safe as we were leaving. also the part the freaks me out the most is i was the one talking to them and my friend heard someone say move away from john and my name is john ????????? then we went into the barn. and as we started to try to talk to the spirits in there we heard a lady say hung so we dont know if she or someone else was hung in the barn and also we could hear footsteps up stairs. but if anyone has info on this house or would like to get a group together contact me at casonjohn@ymail.com

I still have not visited there in years. But the last I was told, you supposedly can’t get to it anymore. I was told there are trees blocking the drive way. But that obviously must not be true being that you were there last night. And yes I might know you. I use to stay off of diascund road with an ex of mine. In a house right across the street from hicks island. But I live in Williamsburg now. And the hay was in the barn the last time I visited there. Just a heads up for everyone. Be careful visiting there. The neighbors across the street keep an eye out on the property. The last time I visited there. The neighbors called the cops. We weren’t beingloud or anything. The cops gave us a warning and said that if we get caught out there again that we would get a trespassing charge. They said they don’t want us there because of the conditions of the house.. if someone were to get hurt there. Its so isolated nobody would ever know.

Potts mansion. I have not been the in a little over a year so I am not positive on what the condition of the house looks like today. But the last time that a group of friends and I were there it was still possible to explore most of the house.. as everyone else has said the house is very old, and not in a very safe condition. I never knew or even noticed that there was a third floor, but I have been in the basement, in the one room that the person above was mentioning that you crawl thru the window, but you can’t go much further then past that one room.. but I have also been up the stairs on the second floor… one of the last times we were there a couple of friends and I put a board up to another window on the side of the house, if you crawl up it, it takes you to a room that is almost directly next to the stair ways. You can get into the house if you are brave enough to go through the basement and up the stairs… it takes quite a bit to scare me, but I must say the basement is quite creepy to go through, and the stairs aren’t in quite the best condition at all!!! As far as the house being haunted, we have had some strange things happen to us. But I can’t say exactly for sure that it is definitely haunted. I have experienced our cell phones acting weird while we were there. Potts mansion was a place that we went to quite often, and one time we decided to go just after midnight. We had a friend with us that claimed nothing scared her. So we took her there, we pulled into the driveway, and went up to the house, we went through the window where you can only go into the one room.. as other people have mentioned before there is a big hole that goes from the first floor to the basement, Again it was dark outside, and we only had our cell phones for light when we entered the room a huge light lit up from the hole in the floor. It came from the basement and shined all the way up to the second floor, and we heard what sounded like running water coming from the basement.. now for all I could know somebody could have been exploring the house just like us, and were in the basement and shined a light cause they heard us, but they would have had a huge flashlight to make it light up the whole hole in the floor. And we didn’t hear any voices, only the running water. I have never personally seen a lady in a white dress. But one time we were all standing in the driveway next to the shed that is in the yard.. this is before we had ever heard of this place being” haunted”, but we were all standing there talking, and we all were quiet for a minute and all 5 of us heard what sounded like two little kids laughing coming from over by the house.. all at the same time we turned our heads and looked in the same direction. That’s the only experiences I have ever encountered. But also nobody has mentioned this, when you pull down the driveway, to the left handside is the house, to the right is the little shed I was just mentioning, but right before the shed when your coming down the driveway there is a little cut in the tree line, if you go through it (on foot obviously) there is a huge two story barn that still stands as well, the barn is still in pretty good condition. I have been on the top floor of the barn it is huge!! But all in all I wish Potts mansion was in better condition, but it really is a creepy but fun place to explore.

Ok guy as you can see i did a write up on this house back in 2007. well as of right now it is november 8 2010. well believe it or not the house is still standing today. I made another visit to this house last weekend. This was probably my 9th visit to the house since 2005 when i first entered the house. I kinda feel like i need to check up on it an see how the years are slowly rotting this house away. Things have changed ALOT since 2005 when i made my first visit. During my first few visits in 2005 an 2006 the house was still in some what decent condition. Well sometime in late 2006 the roof finally gave in an left a giant hole for the rain an snow to enter. Ever since then the inside of the house is falling apart more an more everyday. Its almost to the point now where it is impossible to explore. Use to be that you could enter threw a back window into the old kitchen an walk around the corner up to the stair case leading up stairs. You can no longer do this because the floor in front on the front door has completly fallin into the basement. If you are really wantin to still explore this house the only way to reach the stair case in threw the basement which must be entered from outside. It is VERY DARK an VERY WET in the basement with stuff all over the place. there is a stair case down there that leads up into the left side room of the house. from there you can access the stairs. I WILL WORN YOU THOUGH, once into the house the stairs leading to the 2nd floor are VERY VERY OLD AN ROTTED. almost every other stair has fallin out or rotted completly threw. BE VERY CAREFUL IF YOU USE THEM. Once up stairs you can turn left or right, it leads to what use to be bedrooms years ago. To the left is the master bed room which believe it or not had its own bathroom in it which was VERY rare to find in a house built during the time this one was built. ( goes to show how rich these people really where). There is another stair case that leads to a 3rd floor. Up there was another room at one time. Sorry to say but the stair case has completely fallin out. I was lucky enough to explore up there back in 2005 , when i returned in 2006 the stairs had just about all fallen out, as of my most recent visit there is no access to the 3rd floor anymore. As far as the outside of the house it cannot be seen at all anymore from six mount zion road/holly forks. it only sits maybe 60 feet off the road but it is so covered now you can drive right past it an never no it was there. They use to keep the drive way cut but it no longer is maintained an cannot be seen anymore either.
