The Story

Guests report nocturnal footsteps and self-closing doors; the owners describe a child in old-fashioned clothing crossing the kitchen and a man seated in a bedroom. Missing objects supposedly reappear after requests for their return. The Trail also repeats a story that a former caretaker still guards his room by shutting and locking its door.
