First built by Frank and Joanna Devore in 1876, this lavish Mansion in Blue Mountain on Soloman Island has had a long history of tragedy and and hauntings, landing it the number four spot on the Maine's Most Haunted! Top Ten. Its current inhabitants are Eleanor Franklin, thirteen cats, and "give or take a dozen ghosts". The Bees suggest that most of the misfortune of the mansions' residents can be attributed to Frank Devore's secret library on the occult, possibly a result of his ties to the Illuminati.
A virtual reality version of the mansion is also the site for one of the Council of Venice's training scenarios.
