About this listen
Behind the elegance of Pittsburgh’s Frick Mansion—also known as Clayton House—lingers the quiet presence of those who never truly left. Once home to industrial titan Henry Clay Frick and his family, this 23-room Gilded Age estate has seen both immense wealth and heartbreaking loss. Though the family moved to New York in 1905, many believe their spirits remain among the ornate halls and velvet drapes. Staff report phantom footsteps echoing from the third floor where daughter Helen Frick once slept, and the indentation of a figure mysteriously appearing on Adelaide Frick’s bed. Guests have claimed to see a lost young boy wandering the parlor, accompanied by the scent of flowers, and even the lingering voice of a Civil War soldier declaring “haunted home.” Join us as we uncover the history, heartbreak, and hauntings that make the Frick Mansion one of Pittsburgh’s most refined—and most restless—residences.
