Summary

The 1880s were a time of great interest in the healing powers of mineral springs and one of those springs we haven't covered yet was Red Boiling Springs in Tennessee. Hotels often were built near these springs and one of them that was constructed here is today known as the Thomas House Hotel. This seems to be an incredibly haunted location that has been featured on several paranormal television shows and the hotel regularly offers ghost hunts. Join us for the history and haunts of the Thomas House Hotel! Moment in Oddity was suggested by Jennifer Guthrie and features Seneca Village and This Month in History features Tenley Albright Becoming first American female to win World Figure Skating Championship.
