The Devil Queen

How my wife and I sold our souls to the Queen Anne Victorian we tried to save.

Name:
Location: Crow Mountain, Arkansas, United States

Synopsis: This is a cautionary tale. A seriously disturbed couple find the charming, old ruin of a Queen Anne Victorian in Russellville, Arkansas, and buy it for $1.00. They tore the roof off, cut it in half, and had it moved to some land they owned sixteen miles away because they didn't know any better. Since then, they have hired and fired contractors, had all of their tools stolen, re-wired, re-plumbed, insulated, and essentially rebuilt the entire house. Their only problem is that after four years it still isn't finished. Now they are tired, broke, and wonder what in the hell it is they've done to themselves. And, it's haunted.

One of Four


One of the four May Houses in Clarksville, Arkansas. This one is on Hwy 64/Main Street across from Century 21 (which is in one of the other May Houses). This photo is from 2002 (?) and was taken while it was being renovated by James Wyche Construction. Posted by Hello

That is a beauty. The quintessential Queen Anne.

Is it that sloped, or is it just the photo?

The slope is from the photo, not the house.
