   A little off topic, but MAS, I was happy to read on your blog that you’ll be posting here more often. I’ve been meaning to check out the Whaley House for a few years now, but never have.

   The San Diego Historical Society has many images of the Whaley House as well as a history of the Whaley House.

   Here’s an article from 1996 from a Seattle newspaper: Home’s haunted history is even government certified

   In the early 1960s, the Whaley House was designated as haunted by the U.S. Commerce Department. California’s only other official haunted home is the Winchester Mystery House in San Jose.

   Since then, celebrities like “Twilight Zone” creator Rod Serling and horror flick actor Vincent Price have flocked to the home along with ghost chasers and the curious.

   In 1964, then-local television celebrity Regis Philbin and a companion tried to spend the night in the house. About 2:30 a.m., they saw someone — or something — walk from the study into the music room.

   “They put a flashlight beam on it, and whatever it was vanished into thin air,” Cook said. The duo escaped. The house’s haunted reputation exploded.

   “I’m sure haunted structures abound, but before you make the government list you’ve got to have a history,” Cook said. “This house certainly qualifies on that.”
