Ransted Estate Building / Landmark in Munson, NY: The Most Haunted Square Mile in the US | World Anvil

Ransted Estate

The Ransted estate is the home of Bettie Ransted , and is tended to by Vera Gould .  The tragedy of Malcolm Ransted's death is still very much felt within the grounds of the estate. The estate was built decades ago near the founding of Munson. The Ransted estate is not particularly large in terms of land area, but the house itself is quite impressive. The interior is stifling, the air smelling of happier times long past, the floor boards creak in protest from holding the weight of one heavier than the mistress of the house. A home that loves its inhabitants and hates all else.

Uncanny Occurrence

Police Report 09/29/1888 Filer: Mrs. Bettie Ransted Statement: Mrs. Ransted: "It was last night and the night before. The doorknobs of the house rattled violently multiple times, as if someone was trying to get inside. That progressed into something scraping against the windows. Poor Vera, she almost had a heart attack. I think someone is living on the estate and trying to get in at night. I don't know who would do such a thing, especially so soon after my Malcolm's passing." Officer on Duty: "Was there anything that you remember that could help identify this person?" Mrs. Ransted: "Well, there was something about the path that whatever it was took about the house. It seemed to know about the little quirks of the grounds. There's this root that always gets new people that come to the house, but Vera and I have learned to step over it by now. I didn't hear it trip up as it went by." OOD: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Ransted, I'm not sure that's suppose to help me." Mrs. Ransted: "Well it means that it must be someone familiar with the grounds of the estate, or someone, something, that doesn't walk on the ground... I must go, please excuse me" OOD: "Oh, well, umm.. We have your information if we find anything out" Mrs. Ransted: "Thank you officer, please reach out if there are any developments" *End of Interview*
