The Lemp Mansion in St. Louis is famous for being haunted due to the tragedies, particularly four family suicides, that occurred within its walls, leading to numerous reported paranormal experiences. Guests and staff have documented ghostly apparitions, especially of William Lemp himself, as well as unexplained sounds, cold spots, and moving objects. These occurrences are often linked to the various spirits believed to reside in the mansion, including those of the Lemp family members. The most frequently sighted ghost is said to be William Lemp, though other family members and possibly the illegitimate child of William Lemp Jr. (Zeke) are also believed to be present. Disembodied voices, footsteps, and children's laughter have been reported by visitors and staff. Guests have experienced sudden and inexplicable drops in temperature in certain areas of the mansion. Reports include utensils moving on their own in the dining room and personal belongings in guest rooms. Some guests have felt pressure or other unsettling physical sensations while inside the mansion. The family's dark history of suicides, with at least three occurring within the mansion, is the primary source of the haunting legends. Stories of the mansion's hauntings began to circulate more widely in 1976 when the Pointer family acquired the property and workers reported paranormal events during renovations.
