The historic house was once the site of a number of cult murders. The apparition of a headless man has been seen wandering around the upper levels of the house, along with the noises of screams, moans and cry for help.

There were 2 sets of massacres on this street. One was in 1990, I had a class in prison for WSU with one of the murderers. That house is 17850 St. Aubin and appears to still be standing with people living in it.
This set of murders in 1929 can not have been at this house in the photo if the picture is recent. The house has long since been demolished and it was a corner lot, there is nothing there now but grass. Here is some info on it, but this is not the house, it was torn down in the 1940’s:

The home at 17850 was torn down in the 2000’s. The property deteriorated after the 1990 incident and was left abandoned and open to the elements at some point in the early 2000’s. The homes on the 17800 block of st. Aubin date roughly to 1923-1924. They built the homes VERY close together, in most cases about 6-8 feet apart. When viewing this address on Google street view, the lot is vacant, but so narrow that you wouldn’t believe a whole house occupied that space. The lot appears to have been purchased by a neighbor and used to expand their lot size, which is very common in Detroit neighborhoods with a lot of vacant lots. My older half brothers grew up in the area and filled in some blanks for me. They were about the same age as the parties involved in 1990 when this happened. It was a big deal locally in Detroit at the time. I’m a bit younger than they and lived in Detroit from 2005-06. They knew all about it. A friend of theirs lives near this address and has for many years and remembers the demolition.
When you look at these streets in Detroit, just remember that all those empty spaces used to be homes. The houses used to be very close and densely packed in. The post-1967 riot state of the city changed all that. Try and look up some old aerial photos of the city. It’s shocking how filled in and dense it all was. It’s a huge land-area and many gaps have shown up over the years from blight and homes/schools/businesses, etc being torn down.
1969 pierce was the house that was over in the same area off of St. Aubun as well the house 1969 pierce is gone also it was haunted along with the rest of the houses on the street it was rumored that some Italians were murdered in the home which belonged to my grandmother. We all experienced so many things in this house it chased us out of the house once it was the most scariest thing I ever experienced.I believe it was a lot of murders of Italians in the area.
My mother use to live @ said house on St. Aubun but from what she told me about her experiences, I’ve heard it was a Native American that ended up getting beheaded from a card game that went wrong and if you slept up stairs in that bedroom, you’d wake up to a pool of blood on the floor. I could be wrong but that’s what I grew up being told before the internet was around and I’m 31.
Far as the apparition moaning and crying that’s absolutely correct as far as I know because he was searching for his head which was rumored to be bury somewhere around the property but no one ever found it.
There’s also a house on Chene St (don’t know the address) that I remember slightly but that’s another story
