S07-E03 - Ghosts of Glensheen Mansion

On the shores of Lake Superior stands a mansion of rare beauty, wealth, and silence.Glensheen was built as a family home — a lakeside estate of gardens, grand rooms, polished wood, and carefully preserved history. But behind its elegance lies one of Minnesota’s most haunting true crime stories, and a legacy that some believe still moves through its halls.This episode of Haunted UK Podcast travels to Duluth, Minnesota, to explore the story of Glensheen Mansion: the Congdon family fortune, the life of Elisabeth Congdon, and the shocking events of June 27th, 1977, when Elisabeth and her nurse, Velma Pietila, were murdered inside the house.What follows is a layered journey through history, betrayal, tragedy, and the unexplained. From the mansion’s preserved rooms and lakeside grounds to reports of apparitions, cold spots, moving objects, shadowy figures, and figures seen in windows and gardens, Glensheen becomes more than the scene of a crime. It becomes a place where memory seems to linger.Blending historical storytelling, true crime, ghost stories, and witness accounts, this is a haunting portrait of a remarkable American mansion — one where beauty and violence sit side by side, and where the past may not have fully left the house behind.Enjoyed the episode?
