Summary

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE!

The Gill House in Galion, Ohio, showcases Victorian architecture and a rich history that draws visitors from all over. Built by Bloomer Gill as a grand family home, it quickly gained social prominence, hosting gala events, and had many notable figures visit, including Andrew Firestone, Thomas Edison, and Henry Ford.

These days, the luminaries no longer stop by, but there are many reports of paranormal activity. Investigators and visitors claim to have heard children's laughter from the attic, and shadowy figures have been spotted moving around the house.

The basement offers the most chilling experiences, with visitors reporting disembodied voices, screams, and encounters with a ghostly figure known as Johnny Cake. Bloomer Gill sold the house to the Talbott family, and it seems Old Mrs. Talbot lingers within its walls, evidenced by tapping sounds and swirling mists.
