Sallie House
The Sallie House is a haunted house and tourist attraction located in Atchison, Kansas. The house dates back to the mid-1800s, and is said to be haunted by the ghost of a young girl named Sallie, though Sallie is also thought to be a facade for something more demonic. The house has been vacant since the 1990s. History The Sallie House was built in the mid-1800s, commissioned by the Finney family and home to Dr. Charles Finney.
