Okay it wouldn’t be Halloween at Sac Historic House without mentioning the house on H Street in Boulevard Park. You know the one – empty for years, full of furniture, no-one ever seen going in or out, creepy lion head over porch, etc… I’ve heard it called the Hart mansion or the Martinez house but I’m not sure which is correct. I’m not going to show any pictures or give the address as I would hate to bring any bad mojo down on myself but you can read all about it here.
Owning a house with history means not only do you have to worry about hundred year old plumbing and fire hazard wiring, but also pesky past residents sticking around to keep you up at night. Especially after you’ve watched an episode of Torchwood and eaten a few slices of pizza (is it the cheese or the green peppers that does it?).
Luckily, This Old House magazine has a few tips for dealing with your otherworldly occupants – although short of moving (not in this housing market), you and the spirits will probably have to learn to live together.
Happy Halloween everyone.

. Then a few years later, I came across it on Keri Smith’s site in reference to 
. And the jack and jill bathroom upstairs is quite pretty.
