Episode 15 - America’s Most Haunted: The Lemp Mansion, St Louis, MO

 

Beer and baseball, it's what St Louis is made of! But there's a dark side to the city, and in it a haunted mansion that was once home to a German beer baron who made it all possible. In this episode we cover the history of the Lemp family,  the tragic circumstances that led to six of their deaths (four of which happened inside the mansion) and the hauntings that have been going on ever since the death of the final Lemp heir. 
 
Trigger warning: this episode deals heavily with suicide.
