Hamilton, Illinois Ghost Tales I live in an old house on Hwy 96. I witnessed an older man walking thru my basement. I later described him to a neighbor whose family used to own this house and she said it was her Uncle Earl. I described him to a T. I have also witnessed a small toddler running down my hallway in the middle of the night and I saw a misty form of a woman at the top of the stairs. No sightings on the main floor as of yet. Asking around I was told that this place has been rumored to be haunted for years now. I was also told that a man was found hanging in my barn, but have yet to find any documentation of it.
