The Full Story

The spirits of the seven people murdered by Julian Carlton in the 1914 massacre reportedly linger at Taliesin. Carlton axed Mamah Borthwick and her children during lunch, then killed four more before setting the building ablaze. Wright rebuilt Taliesin, but visitors and staff have reported strange sounds, sudden temperature drops, and an overwhelming sense of sadness in certain rooms.
