What To Expect From The Mysterious Mansion

The Mansion is an old home in classic 1900’s Victorian style. It’s known as one of Gatlinburg’s oldest, scariest and spookiest haunted houses. Major renovations to the house in recent years paused the horror briefly to add some state-of-the-art to the old, and now lots of ghouls, goblins, and ghosts have returned to their favorite hideouts.

If you need an indoor activity to do with the whole family while you visit the Pigeon Forge area, the wax museum is the only one of its kind you can find in the entire country.

You can experience some of the modern stars like Brad Pitt and Natalie Portman. If you appreciate some of the classics, or if you want to teach your children a bit about history, there’s some of the greats from yesteryear like Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe. You can go back even further and experience some of the original entertainers like Charlie Chaplin.

The Bush’s Beans Visitor Center makes a great side trip when visiting Gatlinburg or Pigeon Forge. This unlikely venues offers 100 years of history, and a lot of information about that can of beans you’ve seen all your life. There’s a museum and a gift shop for unique souvenirs, and of course a restaurant so you don’t go away hungry after spending time with all that food.

Bush’s Beans has been in business for over 110 years. The descendants of A.J. Bush, the original entrepreneur who built the family business, pride themselves on keeping the company in the family.
