This castle dates back to the 1920s and was built by John Hays Hammond Jr. The castle has different sections that were built in varying architectural styles: Gothic, Renaissance French and Medieval. The property also has some strange features including raining rooms and passageways. The castle is believed to be haunted by Mr. Hammond himself, who passed away in 1965. There are other spirits that are said to linger here as well, including his wife and former groundskeepers. People have claimed to see apparitions and have even captured some eerie images on film.

Share Your ExperiencesDid I upset the ghost of John hammond?
While using ghosttube at Hammond castle my phone glitched! When I questioned how they obtained the antiques I got response of "it's what I want" instantly! Later when inspecting his burial area told me to get out! Coincidence? Maybe you decide!
