Haunting History of Ashmore EstatesAshmore Estates, built in 1916 as part of the Coles County Poor Farm, has a grim past steeped in tragedy and sorrow. Originally an almshouse for the poor, mentally ill, and destitute, it later served as a private psychiatric hospital from 1959 to 1986. Over its years, the facility housed countless individuals, many of whom faced deplorable conditions—vermin-infested walls, poor ventilation, and inadequate care. At least 32 deaths were recorded by 1879, with many buried in a pauper cemetery on the grounds, containing 60 to 100 graves.
The estate’s dark history fuels its reputation as a paranormal hotspot. Visitors report chilling encounters, including ghostly apparitions, disembodied footsteps, and tortured moans echoing through the corridors. One frequently sighted spirit is Joe Bloxom, believed to be a former resident who was fatally struck by a train and limped back to the estate before succumbing to his injuries. Another haunting presence is Elva Skinner, a young girl said to have died in a fire, her ghostly laughter and fleeting touch reported by many. The boiler room is notorious for an unfriendly entity that unsettles investigators, while shadows and unexplained noises haunt the old dining room. Paranormal activity has drawn attention from shows like Ghost Adventures and Ghost Hunters, cementing Ashmore’s status as a place where the past refuses to rest.
