Rhodes Hall
Furniture magnate Amos Giles Rhodes raised this Romanesque Revival castle of Stone Mountain granite on Peachtree Street in 1904, naming it "Le Reve" — the Dream — after the Rhineland castles he and his wife Amanda admired in Germany. After both Rhodes and Amanda had died, their children deeded the mansion to the state of Georgia, and it is now a house museum kept by the Georgia Trust for Historic Preservation. Visitors and staff have long reported an elderly woman drifting through the rooms, widely presumed to be Mrs. Rhodes, who is said to have died within the house. Far darker is the basement, where guests describe a malevolent male figure — a "shadow man" or "evil man" — alongside doors that slam and lock on their own, disembodied children's laughter, and lights that flicker without a hand near the switch.
