Historic house in Columbia; research record.

Columbia Manor is a historic house in Columbia, Alabama. Historic house in Columbia; research record. It sits in the archive under haunted places. The dossier holds 1 reported claim and 1 legend — all telling, no verified spine yet, and the file says so plainly. Access details are unverified — research before visiting. For HauntHunt it is exactly the kind of file the archive exists for: a real place, a real record, and a story still being told.

Columbia Manor is the shifted — the 'college meant' that's the '64 start, the 'hospital turned' that's the pellagra's ward. The 'corn starved' is the sickened — the 'pellagra' that's the diet's cost, the 'quarantined' that's the patients' stay. The 'active grows' is the told — the 'renovations wake' that's the workers' report, the 'residents stay' that's the ghosts' claim.
The 'river port' is the older — the 'steamboats' that's the town's trade, the 'county seat' that's the '26 rank. The 'railroad refused' is the turned — the 'Dothan got' that's the line's route, the 'river died' that's the trade's end. Columbia Manor is the layered — the 'school hospital home' that's the uses' stack, the 'top ten' that's the haunt's rank.
The file keeps Columbia Manor: the shifted use, the corn sickness, the waking renovations, and the layered past.
Columbia Manor is the archive's Alabama file — the college that became a ward for the corn-starved.

WHY THIS FILE MATTERS
Columbia Manor is the archive's Alabama file — where pellagra patients were quarantined.
A manor keeps its wards — the file's suggestion being that Columbia's hold is the shifted: the 'college meant' that's the start's aim, the 'pellagra' that's the sickness's name, and the 'renovations wake' that's the ghosts' trigger.

FILED CLAIMS — 1 on record, reported not verified
· [Documented legend] objects moving: Southern Spirit Guide recounts disappearing tools and an older male apparition. The house's rooms are where the accounts concentrate — old houses keep their stories in the walls they were built around. The story is documented as legend — recorded and retold, never verified as fact. The report is preserved in sources like 'Alabama Hauntings — County by County Part IV'. The pattern of small anomalies is itself the claim — none dramatic alone, persistent together.
