Summary

Prospect Place in Trinway, Ohio was built by an abolitionist and was a stop on the Underground Railroad. This was a house that not only had to be built twice due to a fire, but it was ahead of its time in regards to amenities. A legend connected to this property claims that a bounty hunter came calling looking for runaway slaves and rather than finding slaves, he found a noose as workers on the farm hanged him. There are stories of spirits on the property. Join us as we explore the history and haunting of Prospect Place! The Moment in Oddity features Anting and This Month in History features C.H. Gould patenting the stapler in England. Our location was suggested by Donny Lawrence Norris.

0:00.0	History tells the story of the world and of our lives.
0:21.8	Sometimes that history goes bump in the night, broadcasting from the Central
0:35.0	Apodity and the Supernatural in Central Florida. It's the History Goes Bump Podcast.
0:45.2	Hello, you spooktacular people. Welcome to this 479th episode of The History Goes Bump Podcast.
0:53.8	Ghost tours for the theater of the mind. I'm your host, Diane. And this is Kelly. Kelly, on this
0:59.1	episode we're going to be doing a place called Prospect Place. This is in Ohio and it was suggested by
1:04.5	our listener, Donnie Lawrence Norris. Excellent. Before we get into that, well we don't have anybody to
1:10.6	welcome into this puketacular crew because Kelly we're actually recording these episodes back to

2:11.0	to side, fungicide or bactericide. Another possible reason for the Antine could be that by rubbing
2:17.0	the ants encourages the ants to excrete their formic acid allowing the ants to become more palatable
2:22.4	for the bird to then ingest. Two types of Antine have been identified as active and passive.
2:28.2	Active Antine is when a bird picks up an ant in its beak and rubs it insect on its body.
2:33.0	Passive Antine occurs when a bird appears to be taken a bath in a cluster of ants.
