Strange Paranormal Activity from Furniture Rearranged to Doppelgangers

The Allen House was built in1905 in Monticello, Arkansas. There have been stories of a jilted woman walking the halls but not only that, but the new owners have also seen apparitions of kids, furniture being rearranged and kitchen cabinets opening and closing. Another strange thing is the new owners have seen doppelgangers of themselves! Some paranormal experts say the doppelganger sightings might actually be Ladell trying to make contact with the new owners.

The Main Hauntings are From a Jilted Lover

The biggest haunting is from Ladell Allen.

She started secretly seeing her first love later in life in the spring of 1948, but he was married. He promised to leave his wife by Christmas so he and Ladell could be married and live their life in her big family house together in time for the holiday. By Christmas Eve 1948 Ladell knew he would never leave his wife so after dinner with her parents, she took a glass of punch upstairs to her room, mixed with cyanide and then drank it. Even creepier is that after Ladell died her mother sealed off Ladell's bedroom for decades.

Then The Letters Were Found

There were always rumors and stories that the house was haunted, but no one really knew if it was Ladell. In fact, no one ever knew why she killed herself since she kept the affair a secret. Then in 2009 something happened that changed everything. That was when the new owner of the house found 82 letters between the lovers under a floorboard in the attic of the house. The letters detailed the relationship and that's when everyone knew that it must be Ladell that is haunting the house.
