E01 Lemp Mansion

Trigger warning: This episode of Roadside discusses mental health and suicide. If you (or someone you know) are contemplating suicide you can dial 988 to reach someone at the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 24/7. Additionally in this episode, we both use the phrase, “commit suicide”. Experts now recommend the phrase be replaced with “died by suicide” or "took one's life", as the word commit insinuates a crime and downplays mental illness. We apologize for the incorrect phrasing.

In this episode, Abigail tells us the history behind one of the top 10 haunted places in the US, Lemp Mansion located in St. Louis, MO.
