Octagon Hall was built between 1847 and 1859 by Andrew Jackson Caldwell near Franklin, in an unusual eight-sided plan, and it served both armies during the Civil War. Today it is a museum, and Kentucky Tourism lists it among the state's haunted places. Staff and visitors report cold spots, footsteps and other unexplained sounds, and the house has been filmed for television paranormal programs. The museum offers a history tour and, in October, small-group haunted tours.
House museum open Thursday through Saturday and Sunday afternoons, with a short history talk and then a self-guided tour; closed for the winter. Admission is by cash donation. October haunted tours are for small groups, so call ahead.
