Dodd. Renowned for its Victorian funerary art and lush gardens, Mount Holly carries an active paranormal reputation featuring reported sightings of floating white statues, ghostly light apparitions, disembodied flute music, and trinkets mysteriously appearing on grave markers.

    The Empress of Little Rock, historically known as the Hornibrook House, is widely considered the finest example of Gothic Queen Anne Victorian architecture in Arkansas. Built in 1888 by wealthy businessman James H. Hornibrook in Little Rock's historic Quapaw Quarter, the grand two-story brick mansion features a 3.5-story octagonal tower, stained glass, and hand-carved woodwork. Operating today as a luxury boutique bed and breakfast inn, the mansion carries a famous haunted reputation centered on the spirit of original owner James Hornibrook, a mysterious sea captain, and ghostly encounters reported by painters, staff, and overnight guests.
