The House of Wills: Haunting of a Gothic Ohio Funeral Home

Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale.  This week, your curator Kara is telling us the Haunted History of the House of Wills!

Travel back in time with us to uncover the incredible life of J. Walter Wills, a man of integrity who navigated racial challenges in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. From being a strikebreaker in Cleveland to refusing to pass as Cuban for a job, Wills' story is a testament to courage and moral strength. We also explore the rich history of the House of Wills, a gothic landmark that evolved from a German clubhouse to the largest black-owned funeral home, now known for its haunted reputation.

Ghostly tales abound as we dive into the eerie legends surrounding the House of Wills and other haunted locations. With the return of a beloved paranormal show on Hulu, we're buzzing with excitement over spooky investigations and spectral figures. We share chilling encounters from the Ghost Brothers and ponder the notion of intentional hauntings.
