The most haunted house in Savannah

There are an astonishing amount of haunted houses in Savannah. There's the amazing Kehoe Bed and Breakfast, constructed for William Kehoe and his large family in 1892 . Kehoe owned an ironworks and most of the fancy details on this Victorian wonder are made of iron from his factory. The elaborate and intricate decorations are gorgeous. Many members of the Kehoe family haunt this mansion, including William, his wife and several children. There might be a few additional spectral guests, lingering in the hallways and rooms, because the Kehoe house was home to the Goette Funeral Home for 47 years! The Sorrel Weed house on Madison Square and is a very active location. There are the commonly veiwed ghosts of Matilda Sorrel and her favorite slave, the beautiful Molly. There are also ghostly soldiers, lingering from the 1700s and mysterious shadow people. The building dates from 1842 but it was built on the a battle field from the Revolutionary War. And of course, a serious contender...
