ASHMORE ESTATES, ASHMORE ILLINOIS NOVEMBER 2011! AS SEEN ON GHOST ADVENTURES ON THE TRAVEL CHANNEL!
ASHMORE ESTATES... ASHMORE, ILLINOIS NOVEMBER 2011!
http://www.ashmoreestates.net/
Ashmore Estates has long been known as a haunted building. The building was for 20 years off-limits to the general public. Many had visited the site illegally and experienced the haunt first hand. Now you can experience this 'massively haunted' site for your self. The owners have made the site available in many ways.
Historical Information: Ashmore Estates is a three floor building that was built in 1916. It has housed people who were indigent and those who had mental disabilities. From 1916 to around 1956 the building was the Coles County Almshouse located on the 200-300 acre Coles County Poor Farm. As many as 200 people died on the site. From 1956 to 1976 it housed the "mentally impaired" as a mental institution. In 1976 Paul Swinford purchased the building and reworked it to be used as a ICFDD (Intermediate Care Facility for the Developmentally Disabled). The building remained in use until 1987 when it was closed due to lack of funding. 31 paranormal groups (as of 11/10) have visited here since July 2006. The consensus is that the building is very active. Many have experienced the mystique of Ashmore Estates for them selves.

- On a cold november day, we drive 4 1/2 hours south to ashmore, illinois. Ashmore, is near Eastern Illinois Unversity in the cornland of Illinois. We arrived around 9 pm, and another group, M.I.G.S was there investigating as well. We spent around 4 hours there, with MIGS helping us with tips and advice. We had a great time. The building is very creepy with some history!

KEWAUNEE INN, IN KEWAUNEE WISCONSIN! COMING FEBUARY 11, 2012~
COMING SOON!!!!!!!!!!!! KEWAUNEE INN, FEBUARY 11TH 2012!
http://www.kewauneeinn.com/indexhome.htm
HISTORY:
HISTORY OF THE KEWAUNEE INN PROPERTY
Since 1858 an Inn has operated at 122 Ellis Street
The Kewaunee Inn is a three story, 23 room luxury 1912 brick structure, which blends the best of the past with the best of today! An elegant lobby, friendly atmosphere, beautiful woodwork and antiques, plus great traditional service help the guest step back into the past. These themed, comfortable and airy rooms offer King, Queen, and Double bed accommodations, with 15 of these rooms offering a private Jacuzzi. Future restorations include converting to the original porch and restoring the first floor to its original arts and crafts style.
HISTORY:
Since 1858, it was proven that a large hotel in this spot could be profitable. In 1836, the city Kewaunee was chosen to be the site of a trading post, because of it's natural harbor. By 1858, Kewaunee was a booming port town for lumber and commerce, where as many as 20 schooners and steamers arriving each day, for both commercial enterprises and carrying passengers / settlers as well, making the need for a large hotel evident. So in 1858 Charles Brandes built a wooden structure called The Steamboat House to accommodate visitors. Edward Decker bought the hotel in 1864 and sold it to John Erichsen in 1865, who changed the name to The Erichson Hotel. John Erichsen enjoyed running this hotel until he died in 1911. William Karsten then bought the hotel in 1911, which burned down in Feb. of 1912. Luckily, no one died in the fire.
William Karsten rebuilt a luxurious, three story brick hotel with a basement during 1912 for $55,000!!! This 55 room hotel was renamed The Hotel Karsten, offering 52 rooms for their many guests, opening up once again on February 14, 1913. The dining room could feed 90 people at once. The bar had its own entrance and was located in the ground floor basement.
William Karsten at this point in his life was a retired Sea Captain who had made his money establishing Pabst Brewing Company in Kewaunee. He was the mayor of Kewaunee, and was quite a heavy fellow, a whopping 375 pounds! All through his life he was blessed with excellent health, never catching any of the diseases which plagued sailing vessels and turn of the century towns. Even with this weight, he lived until he was 78, and died of a heart attack in his favorite suite of rooms, on January 4, 1940.
Always a gregarious fellow, despite his weight and arthritis problems, William Karsten's personality changed when the love of his life, his wife Catherine, died in 1928. He was lonely and not real happy, but found pleasure in looking at the view of Kewaunee Harbor and Lake Michigan from his second floor suite (205-210), sharing his memories with guests while sitting in his favorite chair in a fancy lobby, and most of all, enjoying the company of his very special grandson.
When William Karsten Sr. retired, his son, William Karsten Jr. ran the Hotel Karsten, up until his own death in 1964. Because William Karsten Jr. spent so much time at the hotel, his young son, Billy Karsten III spent every minute he could with his adoring grandpa, William Karsten Sr. The two of them were kindred spirits. Oddly three weeks after William Karsten Sr. died, young Billy became ill and died of complications of an upper respiratory sickness at the age of 5.
When William Karsten Jr. died in 1964, The Hotel Karsten closed and the building stood idle for two years. In 1966, new owners, Charles and John Schmitt gave the aging building a much needed "facelift." They sold the hotel to Tom Gottheardt and five other investors in 1984. Tom Gottheardt and friends sunk the money into remodeling and bringing up to code the basement, the first and second floors before reopening the Hotel Karsten.
Owners Doug and Toni Charles bought the Hotel Karsten in 1991, and completed a Victorian period renovation of the first floor in 1993. The 50 room hotel was also remodeled on the 2nd and 3rd floors to 23 rooms with private baths. In 1996, Dave and Therese Jacek bought the Hotel, completed the renovations which both restored the hotel to its original splendor and adding "amenities" like private bathrooms and Jacuzzis, pleasing to current clientele, creating a more luxurious hotel steeped in beauty and history. It reopened once again with a new name, The Historic Karsten Inn. After 8 years as The Historic Karsten Inn, it closed in June 2007. Reopening on May 23, 2008 as Kewaunee Inn @ Hamachek Village and marking 150 years of the property hosting an Inn. Current ownership is by Kewaunee Renaissance LLC, an economic and real estate development company committed to architectural restoration, the arts and the development of downtown Kewaunee, WI.
MANIFESTATIONS:
Three known spirits make the Historic Karsten Inn their home. They became active after the first facelift of the Hotel Karsten in 1966. The entities of Agatha the housekeeper, William Karsten Sr and young Billy Karsten III have made their presences known to the living. Two of the entities, William Karsten Sr and young Billy Karsten III are friendly and gentle, while the third entity, Agatha shows a variety of emotions and behaviors, ranging from being helpful to being mischievous, to showing disapproval to being a little nasty, but never evil.
Agatha - Her history is a sad one. In 1921, young Agatha was raped by a drunk neighbor near her father's farm. She had a child as a result of the sexual assault which her parents raised. They needed more money, so Agatha went to work. She became a housekeeper who worked at Hotel Karsten, from 1925-1937. It is said she fell in love with William Karsten Sr., who didn't love her back. She was given a room on the third floor, 310. Some claim that she hung herself in 1937, but the truth is that she left the Hotel Karsten to take care of her ailing father. She then stayed and lived out her years on the family farm.
It is not surprising that Agatha is the most active entity.
* Apports, such as old-fashioned gray hair pins are found by staff.
* Her apparition has been seen and heard sweeping the halls endlessly.
* While cleaning a mirror, a staff member saw a woman in a 1930's maid uniform standing behind him, with her hair up in the customary bun of the time.
* Room 310 - An unexplainable cold spot is felt in her old room, 310, and in the southwest corner where the maids quarters were located. One guest became cold while sitting in the bed in room 310, and was treated to a misty form floating through the room, into the wall. An example of Agatha getting some chuckles at the expense of the living!
* She can be helpful. One Christmas, an employee was standing on a stool to get down the boxes from a third floor storage closet. She would take each box down to the first floor lobby. After taking two of the three boxes down from the shelf, and transporting them down, she returned to get the third box, which she had left high on the shelf. Imagine her surprise when she found the box had moved itself down to the floor of the closet!
She also dislikes men in general, and hates workmen and drinking. Imagine how annoyed she was when workmen came to work on the Hotel! During the 1984 renovations, workmen were treated to the full treatment: Tools were moved and turned off without any help from the living. Open doors closed by themselves, lights had a mind of their own and they experienced annoying cold spots.
* Agatha likes to tease the staff by knocking over the sugar bowls and salt shakers, and likes to turn the heat on the burners up!
William Karsten Sr - A gentile spirit, who on occasion gets annoyed or has a mini temper tantrum, stays to remember good times, in a place he loves.
* An unpleasant odor is sometimes noticed on the second floor, which drifts through the building on occasion.
* When annoyed, he likes to move the furniture around in his room. When upset, a sour smell is in the air.
* Women on the second floor feel a male presence staring at them, but when they turn around, no one visible is seen.
* Cold spots are sometimes felt in his old suite.
* His apparition likes to sit in the bar and drink a beer on occasion, as one guest discovered.
Billy Karsten III - A sweet-natured entity, aged 5 years old, with all the energy of an active boy, even in this state of existence.
* His favorite activity is running down the hall to his Grandpa's rooms. People have heard the running footsteps.
* Children have reported playing with a young boy, on the second floor, who strongly resembles the boy pictured in Billy Karsten III's portrait.
Still Haunted?
Yes Indeed!
Guests are encouraged to write in a diary the experiences they have with the ghosts who exist here.
A Green Bay psychic, Rita Anne Freeman was the first to describe who was haunting the place, confirming what the owners and staff already knew; They were sharing the place with some long-time unseen residents.
Wisconsin Ghost Investigations team in 2002 certified that Inn is haunted.
AN INSPIRATION FROM
THE PAST REVISITED
In 1858, a hotel called The Steamboat House was built on the present site of The Historic Karsten Inn by Mr. Charles Brandes, Sr., one of Kewaunee’s earliest pioneers. The land on which it is situated was purchased from the U.S. Government for a total price of $8.95 in 1835.
The Steamboat House fast became a center for early Kewaunee County activities and for travelers who wanted comfortable lodging, good food, and a stable for their horses. It was a social center for the community and its kerosene lamps and chandeliers shone for many gathering. Serving a double purpose, the ballroom was also used as Kewaunee County’s circuit courtroom until 1873. Many important trials were held at the hotel.
During the Civil War, the ballroom served as a meeting place. In August of 1862, Charles Cunningham called upon a group of area men to serve their country. Thus began the Kewaunee Rifles Company “A”, 27th Infantry Division.
Brandes sold the hotel to Edward Decker, a prominent Kewaunee settler, in 1864. After several owners, John “Hans” Erichsen, bought the hotel in March of 1876 and operated the hotel successfully until 1911 when he sold it to William Karsten.
On Wednesday, February 14, 1912, a fire originating in the kitchen completely destroyed the building in less than three hours, wiping out one of the oldest historical landmarks in northeastern Wisconsin. Plans were formulated by Mr. Karsten to construct a new hotel. Expected costs were $30,000, but actual construction costs were almost double that figure. The new hotel was completed in December of 1912. On February 14, 1913, exactly one year after the fire, a grand opening was held.
Ownership changed hands a few more times over the following years. Toni Michalek Charles (a Kewaunee native) and her husband, Doug, purchased the hotel and once again renamed it “The Karsten”.
Using a city development loan program, along with assistance from the State Bank of Kewaunee, a major renovation was undertaken. A Victorian décor and atmosphere greet you as you enter through the front door. Over 50 rooms on the two upper floors were renovated into 20 quaintly appointed rooms and three lavish suites. Each is named and is uniquely decorated with its own theme. Many have king and queen size beds, two person Jacuzzi whirlpools, a romantic sitting area, and period furniture. Antiques compliment the décor. Although in years past the hotel had charm, it also had outdoor plumbing, chamber pots, galvanized bathtubs, and no electricity. Today’s Karsten Hotel still has the charm, but discreetly includes many modern indulgences. A journal in each room gives guests an opportunity to log their visit. Baskets of wine, champagne, fine chocolates, and flowers are available.
In addition, the first floor dining room offers thoughtful, yet discreet service as you dine on German or Classic American cuisine, amid warm, intimate surroundings. Or if you prefer a more casual setting, relax in the hotel’s lounge. Facilities are available for business meetings or social gatherings.
The downtown location makes it easy to reach all that Kewaunee has to offer. Walk to the nearby marina, museum, or quaint shops. You can watch the sunrise or set, hear the seagulls chatter, and feel the breeze from nearby Lake Michigan as you walk its beautiful, sandy beach.
For a relaxing, romantic weekend, or to celebrate a special occasion such as a holiday, wedding, birthday, anniversary, personal milestone, or business team retreat, step back in time and enjoy the warmth and charm of Kewaunee’ oldest hotel
