Merchant's House Museum alleged hauntings

The Merchant's House Museum, a preserved 19th-century family home dating to about 1832, operates as a museum at its original location with much of the Tredwell family's original furnishings. Museum staff and visitors have long reported anecdotal accounts of unexplained noises, cold spots, and sightings linked to the house's long occupancy. The house is documented as one of the best-preserved 19th-century domestic interiors in New York City. Claims of paranormal activity at the site are anecdotal and not substantiated by scientific evidence.
