Real Haunted House

Wiccan Circle

Kalamazoo, Michigan

This house is said to be very haunted. A total of eight people have died in one way or another in the house and they are all thought to still reside there. It is said that one may experience faucets turning on and off, coasters flipping over, and footsteps throughout the house. There have also been reports of the appearance of a glowing cross. Others have alleged to be held to the bed and shoved down the stairs. Beneath the carpet in the basement, there is reportedly a Wiccan circle carved into the wood.

I have never encountered a haunting, but I have a theory that ghosts are either demons posing as the spirits of the dead, or else are merely unexplained scientific phemonena, and could not possibly be the spirits of the dead. I am looking to research my theory.

I live near downtown Grand Rapids and have no car and am wondering if anyone who has been to and knows this house could email me at nathan@iamnathan.com and provide me a ride to this house so that I could check it out for myself.

OK, This may be the house I visited in 1982. I was a student at WMU and was looking for a place to live. Well the job in Kalamazoo, were very few back then, but that house has stayed with me to this day. Is this the house which was just off the main road into WMU but over the highway. It is close to a biker bar (in 1982) that was their called the ??? boar, I think. Let me know if their is anyone in Kalamazoo, I would like a picture of the house, write me and I will tell you more.

Why isn’t there any addresses with these stories? We need addresses to find out if this stuff is real or not.

One very famous haunted house in Kalamazoo is on West Main hill, about 8 houses west of the Henderson castle. Unfortunately, because no one could stay in the house for more than a year, it was eventually torn down. I believe there is still an empty spot where the house once stood.

yeah i have seen this house it is actually down the street from my old highschool. true stoy: me and my buddies thought that it would be funny to take our gfs to this “haunted” house that we had heard about on halloween but little did we know that it was really haunted i went in with my friend first and our gfs followed we all walked around and were trying to scare eachother and then we heard somthing bummping down the stairs and i seen this old guy comming down the stairs so none of us moved or breathed, he got to the bottom of the stairs and looked out the window. i grabbed the girls and went out the back but my friend wouldnt move and then i heard him yell i ran back inside and my friend was ghost whit and he had said that the guy turned around and said get out and he couldnt move and then the guy moved over and grabbed him by the throat and pushed him down. i looked at his neck and he had large hand prints on his neck and they didnt match neone that was with us so i know that he wasnt lying

I used to live off of Douglas, but I don’t think I ever heard of “Hurst Mansion”. I would love to know more, because in a couple of months I’ll be going back there to visit my dad. If anyone has any information on it, let me know by emailing me at PalmCoastChick@msn.com .

Now I remember that when the radio station 92.3 WZUU started, the girl on the morning show was in a haunted house in the Vine area and one of the particular traits was cigar smoke. Same house?

Man, I’d love to know where this is.

Just because the house supposedly has a Wiccan “circle” on the floor doesn’t mean that makes it haunted. And for the idiots Wiccan is a religion that believes in the good and evil of nature not just evil. It’s not just all witchcraft and curses. The Wiccan religion doesn’t even have a circle has part of the belief system.

I have lived near the hurst mansion all my life but only know very little about. It is kind of hard to see in the summer but if you take Douglas Ave for about an mile after Mosel Ave there will be a road to your left “Old Douglas” the drive way is right before the left turn, It is very strange to me that once a week there is a trash cart at the end of the drive and every time it snows a lot you can see tire tracks. The best way to see it is to take Old Douglas and look to the left up into the trees, I have never seen any lighs on in the place at night so you probaly will want to scope it out during the day first. Right now the woods are to thick to get that great of a veiw, after all the leaves are gone but before the snow is probaly the best.
As for the old farm house on Croyden, all I know is that it was the first farm in Oshtemo Township and so it probably has a cool history.

They made a couple cheap horror flicks at the house I am thinking of. It’s quite possible the Wiccan circle was left over from some film makers.
