Friendly Ghosts at the Willis Location

Not much has changed along the village’s main street and descendants of those early families still reside here.  Trains pass by every day, and as you wait for your meal, you just might hear the roar.  And if the building shakes, that’s just the train.  Any other strange sounds you hear can be attributed to our resident ghost or ghosts.

Yes, strange things have been occurring at Bone Heads for years.  The hanging lamps in the bar have been known to swing back and forth.  Lights turn back on long after the restaurant has closed.  Employees have heard whispering or footsteps and turned to find no one there.  Neighbors have seen someone cleaning the third-floor window.  Customers have reported seeing a woman in a white dress descent the stairs.  Oh, and we can’t resist share this one: A little girl was surprised to find more than her own reflection in the women’s bathroom mirror.

We’re not surprised we share Bone Heads with ghosts.  After all, the building predates the formal establishment of the village.  We believe our building was constructed around 1865.  Over the years, the structure has served as a coach stop, grainery, butcher shop, ice house, post office and general store.
