An Eerie Tale About A Former Downtown Sacramento Victorian

Titled "The Landlady's Tale," this story retraces chilling events that happened to a Sacramento family, nearly ninety years go, and shortly after they moved into a Victorian home just seven blocks form the Capitol. You can read the story in its entirety here.

According to its author, the historical events surrounding this story have been verified as true. Read for yourself and let me know if you have any idea where this location might actually be downtown.

Here is a picture, I'm guessing, of the location as it looked back in the 30s. And below it is the caption that the author placed underneath.


"Found in the Sacramento Archives photo collections. Obsessive research led me to a women who lived here right around the time that this was taken (I'm not making this up, folks - she's 93 years old now). She and her son provided some interesting stories about the women who was the owner of the building back then, such as this ghost story. It's kinda creepy."
