Theories about the haunting of this historic house really make you wonder
seaspicer2 October 2022
The historic house is beautiful and fascinating in itself. Historians who work for caring for and explaining the property are obviously intelligent, practical, educated, articulate, and tell the story of guests' experience of hauntings. The expertise of two other professionals interviewed, an educated paranormal investigator and a psychic, offer fascinating speculation on different types of hauntings they experience generally and which seem to apply to this house. The reenactments are entertaining and creepy. The filmmaker clearly loves his town and local history, and that love for this historic treasure comes through in all the interviews. Really makes you think about the lives lived in an antique house, and about the shadows of prior lives all around us.

Educational, spooky, and entertaining

I loved this second installment of The Ghosts of Somerville even more than the first one, Mrs. Micks! Having been to Somerville, NJ, I enjoyed learning more about the history of the Old Dutch Parsonage. Those who were interviewed (a caretaker, a paranormal investigator, and a psychic), were knowledgeable and offered interesting insights into the hauntings of this beautiful old building. Before seeing this, I didn't know the different kinds of hauntings which has helped me better understand some of my own experiences in haunted houses. The reenactments interspersed throughout made the story come alive. And, the fact that the filming itself seemed to have been haunted made it all even spookier!
