Welcome Back B-oo's Crew! This week we head to the small north central town of Brooksville to talk about what many truly believe to be the most haunted spot in the entire Sunshine State. The May-Stringer while constantly being noted as in St Augustine Florida is in fact not and is located in Brooksville, a small historic town with a population of just over 8,500.
While this beloved family home wasnt riddled with horrific murders and or killing of any kind, it seems the spirits have decided to stick around for an entirely different reason. Today, the home is a historic site that is beloved by the community and its caretakers who not only look after the home, but the ghostly residents as well. Get ready for a trip down memory lane full of history and family as we visit the May-Stringer House!
