A Wyandotte Indian family built a bright red two story house on a hill near Over Jerry. Reported haunting with doors rapping and phantom noises drove residents away. The Hicks and later Worsfold families faced continual disturbances until new occupants moved in. Spiritualists brought a medium from Kansas City to interview the spirit identified as a man who would not reveal his motive. The tale ends with the house finally rebuilt as a cottage after years of unrest.
