Hauntings at The Drish House
The Drish House has been the site of purported hauntings since the early 20th century. It was featured in the classic book “ 13 Alabama Ghosts and Jeffrey“ the short story “Death Lights in the Tower.” Alleged supernatural events over the years have included people reportedly seeing the third-story tower on fire, when no fire is present, and ghostly lights coming out of the house.
Some Interesting History about the Drish House
The large stuccoed brick mansion was built at the center of a 450-acre farm on the edge of town for Dr. John R. Drish in 1837. John Drish died in 1867, reportedly from a fall down a stairway, and Sarah Drish died in 1884.
The mansion changed hands several times after the death of Sarah Drish; while it was still a residence the surrounding property was sold and subdivided to create Tuscaloosa’s first major expansion. The structure eventually came to be owned by the Tuscaloosa Board of Education, who opened the Jemison School in the house in 1906.
The house continued to be used as a school until 1925, after which it was purchased for use as a parts warehouse for Charles Turner’s Tuscaloosa Wrecking Company.
In 1940, it became a church, which added a sanctuary abutting the house on one side and a detached Sunday school building on the other. The church retained it for the rest of the 20th century.
