I just got back from visiting “Christmas at the Biltmore”. It was my third time going and all three times I hate the swimming pool room. It always gives me the willies, just as eerie feeling.. My sister gets eerie vibes in one of the hallways leading to the bedrooms. It is an unbelievable place. So hard to imagine somebody living there. It’s just way to big.

The basement gave me this sudden bad energy i felt like i was being followed

We went about a year ago and I don’t have any ghost stories but I can understand them wanting to stay after death. It was beautiful!

We had our high school prom on the grounds of the Biltmore house, and it was so beautiful.

Oh I bet, that must've been a blast!

Thanks to your nice video, I found out that I have something in common with George Vanderbilt: I also travel often to Asheville to visit my elderly mother and I do love the city more on each visit. So much so, that I am going to build a home in the mountains to the north of Asheville but am not going to charge admission to tour all 1600 sqft of it. I think George may be haunting the Biltmore because he is unhappy about the $100 plus admission price, ha.

The Biltmore is gorgeous at anytime, but during the Christmas holidays it is breathtaking! One year, we were there in the evening and a choir began caroling. It honestly moved me to tears, it was so beautiful. No ghost sightings, but there was definitely a sense of being part of a different place, at another moment in time.

@@AveryAfterDarkthis podcast is literally everything to me, I have been listening since the very first episode of Avery After Dark. Every week this podcast fills my thirst for all things spooky and wanderlust. I admire you and would love to hear an episode about all your adventures

I have always thought it was haunted even as a kid. We went every time my grandparents came to visit. I wish they offered night tours in the house. I would love to spend the night in the house by myself and be free to go anywhere.

I live in NC and have always wanted to visit there. I hope to go this yr w/ my 4th grader's class trip.

I have been a few times since I don’t live too far from it. It is beautiful all year round, but even more so at Christmas. It looks like a completely different world from the rest of Asheville.

i’m reading the Vanderbilt book by anderson cooper right now! going to biltmore in july. i can’t WAIT

This video has some inaccuracies. George Vanderbilt's mother did not live in Asheville--she had periodically traveled there, together with George, for her health. The statement that George & Edith threw the first Christmas party in 1895 is way off base--George and Edith were not married until 1898 and may not even have known each other in 1895! Biltmore House--or at least sections of it--were lived in far past the Depression years. Apartments or suites within it were occupied up until 1956. But I love Avery's attitude about the place--and I agree with her! Stories of hauntings such as this I find to be really quite cheerful. I've been in the house when there were few people there, and never actually saw anything--but I will admit I felt things. Never, never, never, though, anything menacing or threatening. Biltmore has never made me feel anything but warmth, welcome, and yes, love. And man, what I wouldn't give to get a glimpse of George Vanderbilt, either on the Grand Staircase or in the Library. I think maybe I'll have to try to start hanging out in the Library when there's a storm coming!😉

Was there last year. Love the balcony was so beautiful. I felt that there was someone presence there. In th library and pool room and the bowling alley.

Did you know that Don Knotts and Tim Conway made a movie called Private Eyes (1980) on location ? The movie is quite hysterical

Me too, how cool would that be 😊

I was there last Christmas and there was an ominous hallway close to a staircase that looks through a window where a dining room/fireplace/big Christmas tree is. Not sure if it is because of ghost presence or just design, but odd to say the least. Thanks again for sharing.

A beautiful Building. Sure, i can‘t afford something like that, but even if i did, i would never want to live in such a big house.

I wonder how much the utility bills and yearly upkeep are on the place?!🤣

I know the property taxes alone are 79 million a year. That’s what I learned from the tour.

Wow, that is a stunning building.

I have visited Biltmore on six different vacations and I’ve never felt anything paranormal while I was there. I think it’s an absolutely beautiful place. I think making up stories about it. It’s very stupid. It’s a beautiful place! Stupid stories actually upset the Vanderbilt family. They want their estate to be remembered as a gorgeous historical landmark.

❤

What opulence. When I die I hope I go to Biltmore.🎉
