true to each period. The rooms demonstrate a way-of-life for these periods that

McRaven is considered to be the most haunted house in Mississippi and is
also ranked as the third most haunted house in the entire United States! It has
been featured in a variety of different paranormal themed television programs
too. When you take a deeper look into the history of the property it is actually
very easy to see why McRaven is considered to be one of the most haunted places
in Mississippi. Several former residents have died inside the house with one of
them actually being murdered in the house. In addition to this, the mansion also
served as a Confederate hospital back in the Civil War. Over the years there
have been thousands of reports of paranormal activity from a variety of
witnesses. Some of the many apparitions that have been spotted in the house
include civil war soldiers, Native Americans and even some of the previous
owners.
