There is a mansion on the west side of the canal in Joliet just above bluff street, call the Scott mansion Harum B. Scutt Mansion at 206 North Broadway Street.
It was built by civil war veteran Scutt in 1882, the Mansion went into foreclosure in recent years before it was sold in May after being featured in the local paper. This $4,960 square foot home is on the national register of historic places and is considered one of the more haunted locations in Joliet rumor has it that two children died in the home, and a teenager was shot to death during a party at the house in 2006. Soon after the murder, local historian and John Wilkes Booth impersonator, Seth macuskey bought the mansion, but died there unexpectedly in 2007 on the second floor landing. Many paranormal investigations have taken place in the home over the years visitors report cold spots light bulbs blowing out heavy dark vibes coming from the doll room on the 4th floor in which visitors feel a sudden urge to leave the room. Others reported hearing disembodied voices felt fingers running through their hair and seeing strange lights and orbs.
Judging from most recent history, the house has received a new roof fresh paint on the outside and numerous amount of updating with brickwork in the back. Judging from what people are seeing, it has been bought by someone and is restoring it to its original beauty.
I personally note, I was visiting the mansion back in 2015 with members of my family and I witnessed in the bathroom after I shut the door all the light bulbs blew out at the same time, it's really was very disturbing.
