The Story
Haunted Places links a female apparition to Frankie Mudd. Other reports describe voices, electric window candles that repeatedly switched themselves on during a reenactment, and a human-shaped hollow appearing in the bed in the room associated with John Wilkes Booth’s stay. No claim that a bed impression establishes the identity of a spirit.
