The Many Ghosts of the Bell Mansion, Part Two | Guest Lindsay Crouch

Oct 05, 2023, 05:00 PM

In 1893, construction began on Robert and Clara Bell’s Romanesque-style mansion in Fort Wayne, Indiana. Robert was a state senator, investor, and a prominent lawyer. Clara loved the arts and co-founded the Fort Wayne Museum of Art. 

The Bells sold the home to William K. Nobel, whose family lived there for 22 years – then the house was sold and became a funeral home. It served the Fort Wayne area as the Klaehn Funeral Home for 93 years. And in that span of time, it’s believed that between 300 and 500 thousand bodies went through its doors. And many of them still haunt the halls to this day. They’re in good company. It’s believed that Robert and Clara also are still in the home.

Today on the Grave Talks, The Many Ghosts of The Bell Mansion with event coordinator, Lindsay Crouch. This is Part Two of our conversation.
