My guess is that perhaps she is just really attached to her home. It must be hard to leave someplace that your family owned for 200 years. <br /><br />I hope you get to explore some of old New England houses soon!Peter Muisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05939949561996555115noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1885320105550742793.post-77777749547672805942017-02-10T19:03:09.288-05:002017-02-10T19:03:09.288-05:00This comment is for a class assignment.

You can ignore it. <br /><br />I grew up in the Midwest, but I've always loved folklore and ghost stories so New England has always held a kind of allure being the place where you can find some of the oldest houses and towns in the country. <br /><br />I'm partial to the Western parts of the U.S. when it comes to untouched wilderness, but if if I ever do a haunted house tour of the country I'll go to New England first. <br /><br />Is there a way to research why Sarah Austin might be haunting the house? That's what I would try. I get the appeal of having a good story just be a good story but I'd still be curious if there was some background to the house or the family's history that would make a haunting now seem possible.
