It was built in 1885 and was bought in 2018 by local artist Jess Hess, who has spent six years restoring it and turning it into a photography studio and home.
‘Scariest House in America’ a spin-off of HGTV’s Ugliest House in America, features nine “eerie and terrifying” houses throughout the Midwest, Northeast, and South, according to a press release from HGTV.
The scariest house, determined by HGTV, will be awarded a $150,000 renovation.
This comes months after the chapel was damaged inside and out during an hours-long rampage, News Center 7 previously reported.
The church will be featured in the ‘Mysterious Midwest’ episode airing tonight at 9 p.m. EST.
