Stillwell Manor, Anderson

When visitors to Stillwell Manor bravely step inside the 27,000-square-foot estate, they're immersed in 140 years worth of hauntings. Every October, when all the ghosts arise from their earthly tomb, the Manor opens its doors and dares Halloween enthusiasts to become part of General Stillwell's ghastly tale. Legend has it that when he returned from war, the specters from his past had commandeered his mansion to torment him and his family. Today, realistically horrifying costumed performers await visitors at every turn, as do eerie displays and installations.
