The Goth Castle located in Hudson, WI, lives up to its name.

In fact, the Victorian mansion inspired the owner to decorate accordingly.

“It’s currently a [vacation rental], and there are skulls and just lots of interesting decor and darker colors and things like that,” explains listing agent Jenni Martin, with Edina Realty–Woodbury.

“If you can imagine Disney’s Haunted Mansion, that’s exactly what it reminds me of,” she continues. “The colors are those deep greens and really bold and dark colors.”

Scary fun

Martin says nobody who has stayed in the house has reported any ghosts or unusual activity, even though she claims that other nearby homes are haunted.

The 5,611-square-foot-home is listed for $1.1 million.

“For another $100,000, you could buy everything inside and future rentals,” Martin says.

Original and colorful

The turret on the circa-1900 home has the original, 6-foot, stained-glass windows. And much of the woodwork inside is original.

“Some of the woodwork is painted gold, some of it is black, some of it is green,” Martin says.

Almost everything about the home keeps with the Gothic theme.

“When you first walk up to the house, the sidewalk is flanked by gargoyles,” she says. “It’s one of the only homes that has its own driveway and garage and is on a larger lot than most.”

Inside, there are seven bedrooms, three bathrooms, and two kitchens.

“They are on the same level. In the past, one would have been used for staff or for entertaining in the formal dining room,” Martin explains. “The house could easily be split into a duplex if necessary, but right now it’s all open.”

The home’s rental website lists rates starting at $1,700 a night.

“We’re very close to Minneapolis–St. Paul, 25 minutes, and our town is a river town with lots of cute shops and bars and things like that. People come here all the time for a day destination trek because it’s so close and so fun,” Martin says.

Many bachelor parties rent the Goth Castle and bachelorette parties rent a pink castle by the same owner, Martin adds.

The backyard has a pool and a hot tub. Inside, there’s a theater room and a “fitness pole.”

“With [rentals], you have to have over-the-top amenities. You can have parties there, and you can have a lot of fun and do whatever you like,” Martin says.

If this decor isn’t your thing, that’s OK.

The buyer “could either be an investor or someone who is into this Goth type of look,” Martin says. “But honestly, it would just take paint at this point to bring it back to your typical Victorian home.”

But maybe wait until after Halloween to redecorate.
