As covered in the Haunted Lineage piece on the 1861 Battle of Lexington, the Oliver Anderson House was caught in the crossfire three different times and ended up as a makeshift field hospital. With surgeons performing amputations right in the hallways, blood soaked so deep into the wooden floorboards that you can still see the dark stains in the rooms today.

Visitors and staff have reported hearing wounded soldiers groaning, footsteps pacing through the second-floor rooms, and cold drafts that smell like copper. If you've ever visited the Anderson House or investigated a Civil War hospital site, did you feel that heavy, lingering residual energy in the rooms?
