Columbian House owners told WTOL that cloudy humanlike figures had appeared in photographs taken inside the former inn. They showed the station two images they interpreted as apparitions. Its centuries of changing occupants and long-running ghost stories are part of the building’s local reputation, without establishing what caused those images.
