I've seen different programs on SummerWinds, it was a beautiful mansion, I've lived in a few haunted houses in my 65 years, the one that actually creeped me out was an old 2 story house we lived in when I was in high school. it was called Old Man Proctor's, the house was a green wooden house, the shed that had the washer and dryer was in was really creepy, 2 of my younger brothers slept in part of the attic, on my side was a balcony and late at night I could hear sounds coming from the laundry shed, even though no one was in there, downstairs you could see shadow people walking from the dining room to the kitchen, but no one was there. After about a week, my little brothers started leaving the door separated our room open, they were really scared, and my parents just told them to stop it, there was nothing to be afraid of, that was until one night when my dad saw a woman walking in clothes from the 1800's go from the field next to us into the old laundry shed, he rushed outside but there was no one in the shed or anywhere around our house. Then one day my 3 brothers and I were outside, and mom and dad were in the house talking to mom's friend when he heard screaming from the old laundry shed, but of course no one was in there. We moved a year later.

As a painter/ remodeler of historical homes and buildings in Gettysburg ive had several bizarre experiences in a few homes. Not really a believer in paranormal activity but some things i cant explain, such as the sound of someone gaging and coughing just behind me i figured maybe another worker had come in but as i turned around no one was there. Another example was after completing a home paint job, i stood admiring the one room i made as a sitting room i felt someone standing very close behind me as looking over my shoulder. The feeling i got was unexplainable and i felt almost nauseous but i contained myself and gently asked if they liked what i had done in regards to the home and this room in particular. I did not turn around until i felt this presence leave. I gathered my things and left. Home was built in the late 1800s and know four family members died in this place over the years. I've been to this home alot and have never felt anything bad or evil but upon entry i always say out loud hello everyone, im going to do some work today and make this place beutiful for you all. Now i always feel very peaceful there as i always work alone.

I think I saw an episode on A Haunting about Summerwind. Pretty creepy. 😳

I love the woods, but these have a creepy vibe to them, as if someone is watching you. The location is stunning, as is the cinematography. Great job.

I live very near there and visiting is chilling

Excellent content bro and it's a comfort hearing that northern Illinois accent. Hope this channel blows up!!

Somethings are best left alone!!! Don't mess with spirits!! You may open doors you can't close!! amen!!

I too am getting grat joy from this Illinois/ Wisconsin accent. Thanks brother from Chicago. Great storytelling!

this is such a big country,, no doubt there's haunted places in every state, every county, every town

These are great. I am excited about your new videos.

I've heard bits and pieces of the Summerwind story for many years. Yea, yea, I'm ole ;) lol I've never heard it told better than you told it tonight. I enjoyed your storytelling. Your narration is believable. If I remember correctly, they had plans at one time to build it again. From what I remember of the place, they may should leave well enough alone. I often can get a "feel" for a physical place or person, etc. even online. I listen to hella stories and reports on Paranormal. This particular house is one of the few that don't feel right at all. That land is sacred and something wants no one there for a reason.

I first heard of this story as a episode of A Haunting. I'm guessing that the hauntings were because of a crime at the cabins...

Loved this. I hadn’t heard of this one before. Such a shame, it’s a very beautiful place. 👍🏼

I like your style of story telling. I just subscribed. Hope to see your channel grow. Keep up the good work.👍

Great story telling, I'm glad i found your channel.❤

Love it! You should come to Delaware! There is so much history and haunted places! 😊😊😊 Hopefully you can come to Delaware sometime!

What an eerie but beautiful place that is! Fires sometimes appear to increase supernatural activity. Even some scientists concede that a major trauma can change the make-up of a property or area. Those huge fireplaces are amazing. In our teens, we delighted in having fires in old fireplaces (we stopped when reminded about birds nesting in chimneys). That complex shows up on Google Maps, wish some new photos. Thank you - a great video.

I like your story telling, looking forward to many more. Great work!😊

The father was never seen or heard from again? WHAT? Did anyone look for him? That's creepy 😮

I use to go there all the time with my friends. I lived in Boulder Junction. I have some pretty cool pictures of the home.

Thanks for Sharing! Such a rich an interesting history, so sad that it was vandalized, and not able to be reconstructed by the last owners ,due to the fire.

😮 That was very interesting. I had never heard of this before today. I can't believe someone would steal a door, but, you never know with people. As for the body they claim was walled up, that is something out of Dark Shadows 😮. I would have called the police immediately, if I had found something like that. Thank you 😊 for posting this 😊😅. P.S. Happy 😊😁 New Year 🥳🎉 to you 😊. 12/31/23.

That's a nice property! I'd rebuild a new home right on that same spot!!

A series called "A Haunting" did a remake of Summerwind and it was portrayed exactly to this story. Im absolutely fascinated with the paranormal. Ive had 2 experiences myself.

Put this on my bucket list...😮😮😮

You did an amazing story on the summer wind mansion! Very nice!

I first heard of this story on an episode of 'A Haunting '

Love your content. Wish you could have seen it while it was still standing. When I was up there in the 80's I had one strange experience in the bathroom off the master bedroom. When I crossed the threshold into the bathroom I was overcome with a fight or flight response. Hairs stood up on my arms and I had to exit the room. This only happened on one of my visits, but I still can't explain it.

Great content and beautifully presented

Happy that KZfaq recommended your channel . Subbed ❤

Potato salad at BBQs gives me "summer wind"

When I saw the title, thought of that old Frank Sinatra song, Summerwind - The summer wind, came blowin' in from across the sea It lingered there to touch your hair and walk with me All summer long we sang a song and then we strolled that golden sand Two sweethearts and the summer wind

At a very young age things have happened to me or around me. As early as I could remember seeing, hearing and talking to people that I knew to be there but my family couldn’t see. My parents and grandparents thinking I had imaginary friends. By age 4 I was deathly afraid of the dark and had to have night lights all through the house. I had a lot of accidents in the bed when I was younger because I was so afraid to get out of bed and go to bathroom alone in the middle of the night. It would be sometime before I found out that I have the gift of mediumship, clairvoyance, and am a empath. I also have Wiccan bloodline’s dating back many generations as well as Native American and Canadian Kanuck Indian bloodlines. My grandmother and my mother’s stepfather bought land in New York that had a pond and over 6 years they built a beautiful house and barns we had horses, cows, goats but as a child that house scared me the most. I never truly felt safe even in the daylight hours always as if someone or something was watching or attached to the land. Later in life at the age of 13 I’d find myself living in a home in Owensboro KY. The home had an unfinished basement with this type of room off to the left of the stairs, there was the main floor which had the living room, two bedrooms, bathroom and kitchen, and upstairs was the attic that was converted into a makeshift bedroom the attic is where me and my twin brother slept which extended the whole length of the home. Towards the back was where there were two closets this part of the room made me very uneasy as well as being in the basement I’d always feel him watching me by him I mean the malevolent spirit of the man who once lived in the home and committed and act so heinous inside of the home. The story goes that a elderly man once owned and lived in the home we rented him being elderly he had a way about him about his yard and his house and wasn’t to found of the neighborhood kids running around in his yard and messing up t up by riding their bikes either. It was also said these children would often make fun of the man as he would yell at them to get off his lawn. Apparently one day a group of boys made there ways home after school as they usually did a few purposely trying to vandalize his yard as a way to be funny as kids do except that the man had enough that he ran down the steps and grabbed one of the boys dragging him into his home. The boys screamed and ran for help but by the time police would arrive the boy would be dead in the basement as the old man was trying to bury the boys body in the basement floor. At night I would see his shadow at the back of the attic, some nights I could feel him stand beside mine and my brothers bunk bed and I could feel his empty eyes pierce through my blanket as I held them firm over my head. And I’ll never forget the one night I woke from a sound sleep at 03:00 am to the sound of someone dragging something of weight down the wooden basement steps. The next morning I would wake and ask everyone in the house if anyone was awake at 3 am or if anyone was dragging laundry bins downstairs to the basement which everyone would say no they weren’t that everyone was sound asleep. I’m 34 yrs old now and as a medium and empath I see things shadow figures that peer out at me from my closet or stand beside my bed it’s a blessing and a curse sometimes the best thing is to stay calm learn to ground yourself meaning think of a happy place or moment in time you were most happy the more you fear the supernatural or the unknown they feed off your energy whether positive or negative stand your ground but please be respectful sometimes ppl don’t know they are actually dead so can be of the darker nature. I’m a firm believer that your soul with be in death as it was in life if you are bad in life you’ll be bad in death. I have hundreds of stories but these are two that have stuck with me the most.

Some land is never intended for buildings or for people to inhabit them. This could be one of them. Everyone there seems to have had tragedy and death befall them there. I liked this video!

I really appreciated seeing the actual location, thank you!

Thanks 4 da tour and telling da history of summerwind😅😅😅

I enjoyed this video. This is the first time I chose your channel. I have hit the subscribe button. I look forward to more. Well done 😊

This place looks amazing! The sprawling ruins, the turning trails, pine trees and the lake. It has a really eerie vibe, more so I think than just any old mansion ruins would. You mentioned this was on private property, if you wanted to check it out in person is it possible to contact the landowner and get permission? It would be really interesting to spend a night camping here.

Very Interesting Video !!! Thank you !!!

The ruins are lovely.❤ They seem to naturally blend into the surroundings, I suppose due to all the stone.❤

My parents went to this after the fire destroyed it and only the chimney remained. They had their dog with them and they said he started growling as soon as they got close to the ruins and even raised his hackles. My dad was confused and tried to get him to come closer to them and he actually whimpered. The moment my parents stepped off of the ruins, he stopped growling.

Very interesting, thank you x

I'm loving your content. Nicely done. Subbed. Looking forward to more.

I read that there are plans to 'rebuild' Summerwind. Good luck.

I'm surprised there hasn't been a paranormal investigate there!

Wow... a corpse in a room whose opening was hidden behind an otherwise ordinary drawer? That's major creepy, even to me!

I never visited it, but there are a lot of stories about it, so many in fact that you loose track of the time frame of it, there is a similar story that happened in Horicon Wisconsin.

I've never seen a ghost or anything paranormal. But I do believe in both.

I live in the Northwood s of Wisconsin. 20 miles to Summerwind

Beautiful place for a home though. Wasn’t there a show on tv about the haunting of summer wind?

The two chimneys @ 8:09 and the two @ 7:53 do not match; they are from different houses. Nicely done video, thanks!

I rent out a haunted house. Of course I never tell prospective tenants that the place is haunted prior to signing the lease. When people are moving out, I always ask if anything weird happened while they were living there. They always tell me some good stories. So far no one has been upset that I withheld this info from them.

I KNEW it! I said at the beginning it seemed like Indian land. 90 per cent through video it’s now mentioned about Indians. This area seems most unpleasant.

There was a place in Ellijay Ga they said it was haunted beautiful place my husband said they offered 100.00 to anyone could spend a night in the house there was a man who was going to but mysteriously went missing never to be seen again

Lillian Keefer's instincts about the place was right. Women have those instincts about something not right about a place or thing. She lost her husband too,sadly.

The mansion does not look beautiful but the property does

I could never live in a place like this too scary

omg! how scary... indian burial ground

A spooky fishing laahhdge

I've heard of the place several times. Never heard of a body tho in a hidden room. I often wonder if u built on the sight if it would start over again, Hauntings

It's strange how mansions burn down I think electric fault or a candle a storm lighting the only thing I can think of is my great grandad Thomas hardy was laying a reef at his father grave and saw his father who was dead go into the church he followed him and saw him disappear into a mist

The haunting in this house sounds very bad indeed.

It would be alright to buy the property if the goings-on didn't bother you. Some people pay money for staying in such places. Great vid. Thankyou. Rotorua, New Zealand 🇳🇿

Heinous crimes are not uncommon in huge mansions. These mansions are built on huge acres of land. It takes a lot of time to find out. Sometimes outsiders commit crime, owners do not get to know about it . Neighbours cannot keep a watch

I like your style.

❤❤❤❤❤

Why if you found a body in a hidden room. Would you not report it to the police?

Yep! Indian burial grounds! That's what I thought right off. Dark woods are dark woods for a reason...

Smelling strange odors...I guess every port- a- john is haunted 😅

I Was Thinking That Was Burned Because Trespasser's !! I Was Thinking That ✝️ 🙏 !! Before That Mention Indian Burial ✝️ 🙏 ground Because Indian's Usually Stayed Close To Lake's And I Figured Before This Guy Mentioned Bless Ya Stay Safe ✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️✝️🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

i went here a few months before it burned down

Looks like old Native American land. Hmmm

A wooden house is definitely NOT a mansion

🪦👍🏻✌🏼😊

Paranormal activity escalates when spirits dont like the new inhabitants, or ANY!... = >>>> think on it this way Would you like squatters in your home? Capiche'? & Arnold Here-In seen Things That were far from Normal & He Snapped!!! Sound Logical? ....

It's always a woman in white.
