    Inside a HAUNTED Manor on HALLOWEEN Night! | Emily Hartley and Charlie Lennox
    Nov 2 2024

    In the tiny, sleepy town of Gibbon, Nebraska, a Halloween party was being held.


    At the party, Emily Hartley–a hometown girl, recently returned from college–met Charlie Lennox, a handsome young man from Chicago.


    Charlie had inherited Blackthorn Manor, an old, dilapidated mansion in which a ghost was rumored to dwell.


    Together, Emily and Charlie explored the house. You’ll be surprised to learn what they found!
