Couple Who Bought And Renovated Haunted Mansion Make Millions

Ignoring The Warnings

There was a belief that the count and his wife haunted the mansion. A full moon would bring the count to the study of the mansion, while summer nights would find his wife in the overgrown garden.

Wendy and Michael acquired the property in spite of numerous cautionary statements from family, friends, and even their agent. They would later regret their choice after what they discovered.

Taking on the project of buying an abandoned house in Northern France was no easy task for Wendy and Michael Tremblay, but they knew exactly what they were walking into.

They were aware of the terrifying rumors surrounding the property they intended to occupy in the future and believed it would be a wonderful place to raise their family.

The terror stories that made the La Valette mansion legendary, however, were entirely factual, unlike many other myths about old houses.

Wendy and Michael are history buffs originally from Laon, France. By the time they were in their thirties, they had worked arduously in their specialized fields and had saved up enough money to purchase a place they could call home.

“It was one of those places you just feel connected with the first time you visit,” Wendy said. She was the one who scouted out the property and encouraged Michael to go with her. They would develop an enduring passion for the La Valette mansion as a result of their visit.

The La Valette had a long history, much like many other historic châteaux and castles in France. However, it had not experienced the same level of affection and care that many of these buildings had.

As a result, the estate was in the direst state it had ever been in during its 150-year existence. But given the spooky past of the building, such a destiny was justified.

According to legend, a local count and his wife lived in the La Valette home in the late 1800s. One by one, they all met a horrible end by falling in the exact spot they considered home.

You might have expected it to be straightforward, but it wasn’t. As a result of its complicated nature and mysterious surroundings, no one wanted to live near, much less remodel the mansion.
