Whispering Drum Haunts Lattimer House in 1921
In Freeburg Illinois the Whispering Drum returns after sixty years in the Lattimer home. Capt. James Carnahan and Josephine Gaines hear the drum while caring for Aunt Sarah Lattimer. Aggie grows anxious as Dr Strathers notes hopeful signs, then a second, more ominous drumbeat and a piercing scream follow later that night.
