The Lumber Baron Inn & Gardens was originally built by John Mouat, a Scottish lumber tycoon in 1890. In 1970, the 8,500 square foot mansion was converted into an apartment complex. One of the tenants was a seventeen year-old runaway, who was raped and murder inside her apartment. A friend of hers happened to stumble upon the murder as it occurred and was also killed. Their killer(s) was never caught.

Dina Everling and Christopher Moon of The Haunted Times Magazine have visited this place many times in order to learn the details of this brutal double murder. Using a specialized piece of equipment, the team was able to pick up EVP (Electronic Voice Phenomena) recordings from the girls, who gave them details about the double murder.

“The Lumber Baron experiences are always tough. We want so desperately to help the two murdered girls come to some peace with their deaths. Until the murderer is finally arrested and convicted, I don’t think that will happen. The girls replay their attack every day, and you can always feel the horror they felt on that fateful day.”
