History & Paranormal Activity

The winter retreat of artist Anna Hyatt Huntington is a brooding Spanish Moorish castle on the coast. Anna's spirit is reported in her former studio, and a figure in a long coat walks the beachside wall at night. The castle's unusual architecture — including rooms with no apparent purpose — adds to its strangeness.
