Third Clue: tower window
_______
Second Clue: the wild frontier
_______
First Clue: Population 6,621
Following is the primary clue for Mystery Location No. 24:
The beautiful Eastlake-Victorian-style mansion is located in a city named for a folk hero in the oldest county in the state. Though inviting, once inside the old house, many detect a “presence,” believed to be the spirit of a former inhabitant, and there’s a doll in the attic that moves about on its own and sometimes loses its head.
Each day, a new clue will be posted until someone names the location, providing the street address, city and state (or province/country if located outside the US) and an explanation as to how each clue applies to the location. If no one correctly names the location, the contest will end at midnight (Eastern time), Saturday, November 5, 2016. Please note, the contest ends at midnight in the Eastern Time Zone. If you live in a different time zone, please make adjustments so you will know what time it ends where you are.
You may discuss the location with other members by posting your comments using the "reply" option, but please do not attempt to name the location until you are absolutely certain of your answer and able to post the street address, city, state, etc., along with a photo, or link to a photo, of the Location.
For those of you who remember our old Mystery Locations contest, the point system has changed. Now, if you name the location on the first day, i.e., Sunday, before midnight (ET), you will receive 7 points. Thereafter, the points will depend on the day you name the Location as indicated below. (Again, please note, each day ends at midnight in the Eastern Time Zone, so if you live, for example, in Mississippi, and you name the location at 11:30 p.m., Wednesday, you will receive 3 points because 11:30 p.m. in Mississippi is 12:30 a.m. Eastern Time.)
Sunday - 7 points
Monday - 6 points
Tuesday - 5 points
Wednesday - 4 points
Thursday - 3 points
Friday - 2 points
Saturday - 1 point
If you wish, you may collaborate with another member and if the two of you win, points will be divided between the two of you.
This contest is meant to be fun, so, as before, we ask that you conduct yourself accordingly. To prevent any accusations of favoritism, Kitty has been advised of the name and address of the Location and will not be participating in this week's contest.
If you have any questions or comments, please reply.
