Genny Nelson's house on Saxonburg's Main Street isn't just a historical landmark, the building is the site of a few ghost stories.

Genny has numerous photographs depicting the home's interior. Each one has a mysterious whitish streak interrupting the image.

"Any photo we take, this vortex is in it," she said about the ever-changing white streak.

The eerie photographs aren't the only spooky signs of haunting.

Genny said people who are sensitive to the supernatural feel the presence of ghosts.

"We've had people walk out of the building. They said there's too much energy," she said.

One theory is there are two men — possibly original building owner Dr. Edward Napoleon Bonaparte Mershon and his brother Dr. Horatio Lafayette Mershon — who are the spiritual forces.

However, a person standing in one of the rooms one day felt something short brush past his leg. Genny said that phantom may have been the ghost of a little boy treated by Mershon.

Just as Mershon saved the injured hand of a 5-year-old girl during one operation, the ghostly boy may have been another patient.

"We assumed this little boy was another miracle," Genny said.
