The farmhouse on Main Street

New Jersey · United States · Road

It starts in the gravel car park at the side of the house. Dogs and cats refuse to go into certain rooms, and which rooms changes.

Visitors to this old farmhouse at Pennington, New Jersey describe it beginning before they are inside. Pulling into the stone covered car park at the side of the house, there is a sense of foreboding.

Inside, people describe the atmosphere as negative rather than sad, which is a distinction witnesses here make deliberately.

Spend time in the house and you will see and sense things.

The detail that recurs concerns the animals. Dogs and cats will run from certain rooms or refuse to go in at all, and which rooms it applies to changes over time.

That last part is worth flagging. Animals refusing a room is common in these accounts. A pattern that shifts from month to month is not, and it is harder to explain by a draught, a smell or a sound in one fixed place.

Pennington is a small colonial village, and this is a private house.
