Review & FAQ:
Often affectionately referred to as the “House on the Hill,” the Beattie Mansion is an incredible house that boasts a rich history. Built by Eliza and Armstrong Beattie back in the year 1854, the home originally only includes the east wing. In 1878, Armstrong died in the home rather mysteriously after a sudden “bout of cholera,” followed by Eliza’s death in 1880. The now “haunted house” was used as a Home for the Friendless, a Memorial Home for the Aged over the years, and a group home for substance addicts and the mentally ill over the years.
