The Story
Ghost stories at the Old Kentucky Home include a woman in the dining room, a man occupying an upstairs rocking chair, and a face at a high window after dark. Haunted Places adds the sound of an old typewriter. The apparition accounts concern the house museum, not Wolfe's grave at Riverside Cemetery.
