Our historic house is haunted, Carroll Gardens funeral directors say
Eye On Real Estate
With a mansion this old and this fine, you’d hope there would be a ghost or two floating around, to amp up the sense of antiquity.
And this stunning Greek Revival landmark does not disappoint.
Just ask Frank Guido, who has seen silent specters in the hallway on the top floor of 440 Clinton St., AKA the John Rankin House, which was built when Martin Van Buren was President.
“Two women pass at times, one in a white dress, one in a blue dress,” said Guido, who has lived and operated a funeral parlor for more than a half-century in the historic Carroll Gardens manse.
