McPike Mansion, located in Alton, Illinois, is a lovely Italianate structure that was built in 1869 by architect Lucas Pfeiffenberger for Henry Guest McPike. The home was built on 15 acres of gorgeous land known as Mount Lookout Park. This was the McPike's country home until 1936.
The house has changed homes several times since McPike owned it, but has been unoccupied now since the 1950s. There is quite a bit of damage to the stately old structure. The current owners, Sharon and George Luedke, are in the process of lovingly restoring it to its former grandeur.
On the 2nd floor, Lisa Krick asks, "If there is a message that you want to give someone, this is the time to do it," followed by "Texas Chainsaw massacre going on in the background," as there as a chainsaw in the background. Nicole captures a male voice saying, "It's Jake," not heard in real time.
