Is Worthington Ohio a ghost town as in deserted? Not on your life! Worthington is a thriving Central Ohio community with a history. I got a big kick out of the Worthington Libraries series of Ghost Stories last fall when I found them. I found them after Halloween 2007. I'd posted a couple on my Discover Columbus site last winter... Not scary but a bit grisley ... this is a part of Worthington history I did not know. This is my favorite Worthington Ghost Tour: The Tale of Dr. Morrow From the Worthington Libraries starring the webmaster at Worthington Libraries, Stefan Langer, as Dr. Thomas Morrow.
Angry mobs of citizens, grave robbers, a missing body from an insane asylum? I don't believe I had ever heard of the the story of Dr. Thomas Morrow and the Worthington Medical College's demise. The Worthington Library has a series of videos of Worthington ghost stories that they produced in 2007. I did not find them and amuse myself with this one until 2008.
Worthington 2008 "Worthington was founded in 1803 and has grown into a well established community while maintaining its New England atmosphere. Worthington offers a wide variety of homes, both in style and price range. The proximity to the 1-270 outer-belt with Interstate 71 and Route 315 makes transportation to downtown Columbus easy, allows fifteen to twenty minutes driving time at rush hours."
and ghosts too! Who knew?
