Very cool article! I’m from Ohio and never knew of this cursed museum in someone’s home! Also, in your article you call the carved woman statue a CHROME. However, it is actually CRONE. A CRONE is usually thought of as an elderly lady. Some stories of her make her out to be a scary entity but in actuality it just refers to a wise, elderly lady.
