haunted mansion
Ghost-filled residence
A haunted mansion is a large, imposing house believed to be inhabited by ghosts or supernatural presences.
The phrase evokes Gothic imagery—decaying grandeur, creaking floorboards, mysterious figures in windows.
Haunted mansions are staples of horror fiction and Halloween attractions: We toured the haunted mansion at the amusement park.
The combination suggests that wealth and history leave spiritual residue.
