Jeffrey's Adventure to the Baker-Brooks House

Jeffrey visited the Baker-Brooks House and could not stop talking about how he felt like someone was staring at him even though we didn't see anyone.  This house was built in 1858 and the grounds of this home were the scene of a skirmish during the Battle of Selma.  A wounded Union soldier crawled under the staircase and died following the battle.  They say the blood is still visible under those stairs today.  The current residents hear footsteps upstairs even though the second story burned many years ago and was never replaced.  Jeffrey is looking forward to visiting this house again on Saturday during the Haunted History Tours so he can hear more about the ghosts from the owners and possibly meet the wounded soldier!

Friday is the last day to purchase tickets for the Saturday tour, so be sure to call the Chamber of Commerce at 334-875-7241 before it's too late!
