Haunted Houses in Austin: The Littlefield House





The Littlefield House, located at 24th Street and Whitis Ave on the UT campus, is supposedly haunted by Alice Littlefield, the wife of the famous cattle baron George Littlefield.  He supposedly locked her in the attic to keep her safe from marauding Yankees during the Civil War, but unbeknownst to him, the war was already over.  They say she haunts the upper floors and can be seen peering out the windows.
