HISTORY
The Logan Mansion was built in 1897 by Lafayette Robert Logan, beer and ice
manufacturer. The Mansion was designed by architect Nathaniel Sykes Allen. One
of the finest remaining Queen Anne Victorian houses in the city. In the 1950's, the
home was transformed into a boarding home for teachers. During this time, a 6
year old girl, daughter to one of the teachers, fell to her death out of one of the
attic windows. Now the home is beautifully restored, having most of the original
furnishings.
ACTIVITY
Numerous people have reported extreme uneasy feelings in portions of the home
and reports of seeing a young girl have been reported. In one case, a maintenance
crew, assigned to remodel portions of the home, constantly reported strange
happenings such as items coming up missing and strange noises being heard.
Most commonly, the lids to their paint cans would often come up missing.
INVESTIGATION
The investigation began in the same fashion as others: Base readings were taken,
camera systems were set up, and the team prepared to go lights out. In one
specific case, one of our investigators became real emotional in a particular
portion of the home. This was later accompanied with numerous EMF spikes and
several strange noises.
As we always say, personal experiences are good, yet are never enough to
warrant any one place "haunted". The evidence analysis produced no significant
results, other than a few questionable audio recordings, which we have placed
below for you to judge for yourself.
We would like to give a huge thanks to the owners of the Logan House for
allowing us to investigate and the crew of KSLA Channel 12 and the Shreveport
Times for their coverage of the home. We definitely would love to make a return
visit to this beautiful residence, hopefully next time getting more substantial
evidence.
