This was really good. And I enjoyed every minute of it. Thank you for you hard work.

I used to work in CW. The house was definitely interesting. Almost everyone taking a picture of the last window on the left (from the door) caught something unusual. One of the waitresses at Chownings went with me over there after closing and we looked inside that window, and we saw 3 orbs there, just bobbing a little bit. No moon, and it wasn't a reflection of our lights because we didn't have any with us. If you go there, enjoy the tours but go alone later, after midnight, and try your luck!

it wasn;t me although I would have gone with you ! I herd stories that Chowning's was haunted and i was always uncomfortable in the upstairs dining room

I got a picture of a woman standing in the window at night and the window had the blinds closed and there was nobody even near the house

demons look out of windows a lot, they watch humans to hope to mess with thier lives,,and fly in and out of windows and come though walls, and they got no bodies, and are in many things and places

I love finding videos like this around RUclips about the Williamsburg ghosts. I saw one at the Rockefeller house. I suggest reading L. B. Taylor’s books on the Ghosts of Williamsburg, nearby environs, and the ghosts of Virginia. If you can find a copy, Marguerite DuPont Lee’s book from the 30s, Virginia Ghosts, is also interesting. I like the quaint way she tells the stories. Colonial Williamsburg is my favorite place to be.

I would consider it the most haunted house in Virginia

None of these stories about the Peyton Randolph House ever states is that Mrs. Peyton Randolph brother was Benjamin Harrison V, who was a signer of the Declaration of Independence and the fifth Governor of Virginia.

Yes, my direct relatives and much tied to the govt and founding of major things. The thing that bothered me of being kin to them all was the freemasonry,,so since I am in the familyof JESUS, i denied any earth soul ties to these people,but they did much when here.
