Beeson Mansion - Real Haunt in Niles MI

The Beeson Mansion in Niles dates back to 1847 when it was built by a whiskey distiller. Shortly after, it was purchased by an attorney who serviced the Niles area, Strother Beeson. Beeson had an elaborate mausoleum built outside of the mansion for his deceased mother’s remains. As years went on, the mausoleum became a final resting spot for more members of the family, including that of Beeson's infant grandson.

The historic home is known to be haunted by many spirits, most notably that of the infant’s grieving mother. Her cries can be heard on quiet nights. Although the home is privately owned, paranormal lovers can still pass by and check out the mansion's exterior.
