The story
Built in 1827 as the Genesee County Poor Farm, Rolling Hills housed the indigent, the mentally ill, orphaned children and the criminally insane under the same roof for more than a century. A private cemetery on the grounds contains the remains of those who died without family to claim them. The shadow figure of a very tall man — believed to be Roy, a resident who reportedly stood 7'3" — is among the most frequently reported phenomena on the property.
