The Peace and Plenty Inn

The Peace and Plenty Inn was once a tavern and stagecoach stop before the Revolutionary War. Centuries passed, and it was converted into a private residence. The sprawling red-clapboard home had welcomed many families in its almost 400 years, until one night just before Halloween. The Armstrong family now owned the home. That night, the Armstrongs went out to dinner and the babysitter, Ann, got the girls ready for bed. By nine o'clock, all three girls were tucked safely into bed. Ann settled in front of the television to watch a movie.
