Authentic profound experiences. Came a skeptic, left a believer.

I've been to Rolling Hills 3 times now and each did NOT disappoint. Tons of activity in the morgue and barbershop. An absolute MUST in WNY. And Sharon is amazing.

I'd read quite a bit about the history before going, so I didn't think the building itself would surprise me. It did. Certain rooms just feel heavy when you walk into them. It's really hard to describe without sounding ridiculous but it's true. We had activity in the shadow hallway and kitchen area. Someone in our group also got what sounded like a very clear EVP in the basement. I don't know how to explain it. Sharon was helpful without hovering, and she knew all the answers to everything. You can tell effort goes into keeping the building up and running while preserving it. A true labor of love in some form.

It's haunted. For real. Like REALLY haunted. At one point I heard footsteps in the upper corridor and there was no up there.

This was my first time doing anything like this and I spent the day before guessing what I'd gotten ourselves into! The building is huge. Three floors, real history, and it just has a feel you can't explain. We had some strange stuff happen in one of the upper hallways that none of us could explain, and my recorder picked up something that creeped me out. This is a totally different experience than any other Halloween thing.

Took my dad here for his birthday in September. We did the daytime self-guided tour since he's more of a history buff than a horror fan, but even with the lights on, some of the rooms were seriously unsettling. The history is interesting just to read about let alone experience. Asylum, poor house, infirmary, all of it. The morgue is super creepy. Dad said it was the most unique birthday present he's ever been given and I'll have to agree with him there. Fascinating place.

We drove pretty far for this and did a 3 hour ghost hunt. For a good part of the night we basically had the place to ourselves, which made the reality sink in fast. There is a definite feeling of weight to the place. This is not like other supposedly haunted places...this one lingers in your soul. This isn't a haunted-house setup with actors jumping out at you. It's an old building with a lot of history, and the investigation side is what you're there for. Had a fantastic time.

Real ghosts and a great place to investigate . I have been several times and have never been disappointed. Lots of EVPs and apparitions. This is my favorite public place to visit. I have been on public and private tours and it is well worth the fee. Love to be able to get the history of the building as well!

Been to rolling hills multiple times with a different experience each time. Captured full body figures in photos, heard voices (even the screaming lady), and have had lots of activity using paranormal equipment. Great place to go! Also the owner sharon and her team are always amazing, every time I have gone!

My sister talked me into going and I'm glad she did. We went on Friday night and the smaller group made it feel pretty personal. We got the history before we went out exploring, which honestly made the rest of the night more interesting because you know what you're walking into. We spent most of our time on the second floor and down in the basement area. There were a few things I still can't explain. If you go, and you should!, don't rush. We got much more out of it when we actually sat quietly somewhere instead of constantly walking around looking for something to happen.
