The Mount Estate in Lenox, MA, is known for being haunted by shadowy figures, disembodied footsteps, and ghostly apparitions, particularly in Edith Wharton's bathroom. Visitors report experiences like cameras malfunctioning, unexplained noises, and a feeling of an eerie presence. These phenomena are often linked to the mansion's history, including author Edith Wharton's own fascination with the supernatural, and the various individuals who lived there after her departure, such as the students at the former girls' school. Dark, lurking figures are often seen in corners, particularly near fireplaces. One photograph captured a mysterious figure with a long, thin neck and no lower body. Footsteps echo through the halls, and doors slam shut with no apparent cause. A ghostly woman with gaunt cheeks and hollow eyes is said to appear in photographs taken in Edith Wharton's bathroom, leaving visitors shaken. Cameras have mysteriously stopped functioning, especially in certain areas of the estate. The mansion, especially the bathroom, is described as having a thick, heavy energy, suggesting a thinning of the veil between worlds. The Gilded Age author designed and lived in the estate, which she filled with airy spaces to ward off shadows. She was known to be fascinated with spirits and wrote ghost stories despite her own fear of them. After the Whartons sold the home, it was later occupied by the Fox Hollow School for Girls. Students at the school reported strange noises and unexplained experiences, contributing to the mansion's reputation for being haunted.
