today and this home has a lot of
history...the architecture is amazing...the
inside of the home is kind of in ruins but
you can tell how beautiful this home used to
be...I think also that there are some spirits
from the past that are still roaming in the
structure...if anyone can tell me more on the
history of the home that would
wonderful...thanks!
