Real Haunted Houses

Real Haunted House

The Sexton House

Russelville, Kentucky

The story goes that a girl got mad at the bad weather on the night of her dance while getting ready in her attic room and looked out the window and cursed at God. She was then struck by lightning that left her shocked imprint on the window. When the window was changed the imprint came back. They painted over it, still, it came through. So they boarded it up. About two years ago a man that lived in the house was found dead by the bedroom door of a heart attack. They do not know what could of caused it. God must still be angry!

Haha, I’ve heard that exact same story all of my life and I’ve driven by that house at least once a week every week. I’ve actually heard that there isn’t even a room up there, that the window was merely decorative and it’s now boarded up. I don’t personally believe that because ‘Why would you have a ‘decorative’ window???’

Actually, the story is the girl (killed) was forbidden to attend a dance at her school by her parents (the current caretakers of the cemetary) on a particular night of bad weather. she returned to the room upstairs and cursed (either her parents or god; depending on the source) and was zapped by lightning. I am from the area in Kentucky where the house stands and this is the story as told to/by locals.

have you had someone in there place i can talk to the girl(killed). maybe she could tell you the real truth on what happened. and who she was cussing at the time she died. i understand the story told by the locals. i am not from the town where the house is. i had drove by the house on many occsions. sorry for the bad spelling. does anyone even know her name? well i shared my opinion. Might want to consider that if you beleave in people like that. well it wouldn’t hurt if you know what i am trying to say. it might shed light on a lot of things with the story and what really happened.

Hello, I live in Dunmore KY about 20 miles from Russelville. I drive by the Sexton House all the time traveling down 431 to TN and have seen the boarded up window in the attic. It has been boarded up for a long time but I can remember when it wasnt when I was in school. I have heard the same story as you all but that the shadow can only be seen whenever it is lightning. I have never seen the shadow in the window painted board or not but I havent been there while it was lightning either. Its a creepy old house and if its not haunted it should be. Bobby
