The Villa Montezuma - one stop on the San Diego Ghost Tour

On a gentle slope overlooking downtown

rests an architectural marvel and disturbing piece

of San Diego's past. During an economic boom,

music and culture came to town…..

in the form of Jesse Shepard.

 

 A beautiful mansion was built for him, and there

he entertained the nouveau rich and local celebrities

with his musical talents. Gifted pianist or uncanny

medium? 

Many believe he was in touch with something beyond

the grave. And in a flash, he was gone. But those who

remained in the house continued to feel its grip.

 

Madness, depression, and suicide now stalk the halls

and bedrooms of this wonderfully restored abode.

 

 Come with us as we visit this piece of

paranormal history.

*The Villa Montezuma is currently closed for renovation. 

However, this does not deter the activity about the property.
