  • The Grove has a vibrant history of unexplained happenings: voices, sounds of footsteps, moving objects, and other ghostly phenomena.[21] These stories indicate that the Grove is the most haunted building in Jefferson,[22] and perhaps the most haunted site in Texas. According to Hopkins, the previous owner who turned the Grove into a restaurant, many mysterious events occurred while he was at the house. These events include mirrors falling off walls, loud wails heard coming from the upstairs, unexplained moisture in spots around the house, and the constant feeling of being watched. "Legend has it that the property lies in an area where several murders occurred, and several unmarked graves reportedly lie under or near the house".[14] Hopkins's niece and her friends recall seeing a black man lying in the street, and as they went to see if he needed help, the man supposedly disappeared. This black man could be one of the men from the Stockade Case or another man that was rumored to have been hanged on the back porch of the house.
    A ghostly woman has also been reported many times being around the Grove. She was spotted in the house by Hopkins right before he was opening up the restaurant. The woman has also been reported by a neighbor and her sister, who saw a "glowing white figure" on the porch.[14] This woman has been said to be the original owner, Minerva Fox Stilley. She has often been seen walking beside the house, and then stepping up through a wall of the house. On the inside, she emerges from the wall and then walks across the width of the house. This strange path makes more sense when one considers that the wall that she steps up through was once the back porch to the house before the 1870 addition was made. Instead of stepping up through a wall, she instead is probably stepping up onto the back porch, coming through a door that was at the back of the house, and walking across to what would have been the children's bedroom.[23]

    Thanks for the tour. I wanna go there now. I grew up in a haunted house in S Louisiana built by my great great grandfather. The faucet would turn off and on by itself. The sound of breaking glass, whispers in my ear. My father said he saw his father walk across the room. My sisters all had paranormal experiences there. There were 9 family members born there and a number of them died in the house. We never had a problem with the spirits there, but when Mom and Dad crossed over, we sold it. The new owners had a terrible time with falls, broken bones, strokes, etc. in the first year they lived there. I think one of them died within the first few years.

      Doors used to open themselves in my house. The lid on one of those old console stereos would open then slam down over and over. Heard voices and stuff too. It was wild.
      Sounds like you had a similar experience!
      Definitely go to Jefferson: it’s really fun and there are several ghost tours.
