Sallie House

The Sallie House is a two-story brick residence in downtown Atchison, United States, now open for overnight stays and guided visits. The lower rooms once functioned as treatment areas, while the upper chambers were arranged as living quarters.

The building was erected in the mid-1800s as both a home and workspace for a physician who received patients on the ground floor. Over the following decades, residents changed several times until reports of unexplained activity drew media attention in the 1990s.

Visitors arrive with recording equipment hoping to capture evidence of activity linked to unexplained sounds and movements throughout the rooms. The local community knows the building by the name of a child whose story has become part of the reported encounters.

Visitors can take self-guided tours during the day or stay overnight to conduct their own investigations. The city chamber of commerce organizes access and provides information on bookings and availability.

Male guests report sudden scratch marks appearing on their skin during their stay, leading to numerous documented cases. These patterns occur more frequently in the upper rooms and appear without any visible external cause.
