Fire at the Cahill Mansion | Encore Episode

About this episode

The episode discusses a fire at the haunted Cahill Mansion in Hadsboro, Mississippi, which was predicted by a psychic.

At 1:20 pm on Saturday, July 19, 1970, a fire broke out in an abandoned home in Hadsboro, Mississippi, that was well known throughout the community as haunted. But what made the incident so unbelievable wasn't necessarily the claim of spirits there, but rather the fact a psychic had foretold of the Cahill House's fiery demise less than a year prior.
