Adams County Ghosts and Hauntings - Counterfeit House
The Counterfeit House
Gift Ridge
Manchester, Ohio
No longer there-Demolished
The Counterfeit House was built by Oliver E. Tompkins in 1850 for the purpose of counterfeiting 50 cent pieces and $500 bills. The ghost of the counterfeiter was said to haunt the home when it was there. Perhaps he still haunts the land.
