At first, when&nbsp;I went inside, I felt very cozy because of the homey interior design and the pleasant reception from the museum tour guides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our tour started; we explored room by room, followed the tour guide, and listened to the house&#8217;s history and each of Roedde\u2019s family members. It was fascinating. There are tons of stunning heritage items with beautiful stories behind them. But \u2018Have you ever felt scared by something you can\u2019t see?\u2019 I think everyone might have felt this at least once in their lifetime. Yes,&nbsp;I&nbsp;felt&nbsp;terrified&nbsp;as&nbsp;I separated myself from the group and went alone to Roedde\u2019s daughter\u2019s bedroom.&nbsp;&nbsp;I&nbsp;&nbsp;previously went through Roedde\u2019s sons\u2019 bedroom with a very joyful feeling. Suddenly, my emotions changed as I saw a bunch of creepy tiny dolls mixed with some Halloween decorations inside the girls\u2019 bedroom next to me. It was unsettling. I ultimately wanted to go back to be in the group, but I felt my feet numb at the sight of the room. I had no choice but to wait for my group to enter that room.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/2-768x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1614\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/2-768x1024.png 768w, https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/2-225x300.png 225w, https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/2-1152x1536.png 1152w, https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/11\/2.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>After everyone had come, the tour guide started telling the historical horror story of Roedde\u2019s daughter Anna Henrietta. One of their previous daughters with the same name had died when she was four years old after she ate poisoned berries, and unfortunately, nobody could take her to the hospital in time.&nbsp;After&nbsp;that,&nbsp;a later-born namesake, Anna Catherine, the owner of this&nbsp;room,&nbsp;was&nbsp;killed&nbsp;by&nbsp;a psychotic&nbsp;patient when she worked the night shift at Vancouver General Hospital in 1925. After&nbsp;I&nbsp;heard&nbsp;this&nbsp;terrifying horror story, I&nbsp;got&nbsp;goosebumps!&nbsp;I\u2019m&nbsp;sure&nbsp;there&nbsp;is some mystery within the name \u2018Anna\u2019!&nbsp;Do&nbsp;you&nbsp;believe they should have named their daughter differently?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was a memorable trip for me in my&nbsp;first&nbsp;Halloween&nbsp;season&nbsp;in&nbsp;Canada.&nbsp;I&nbsp;got&nbsp;many oral history artifacts&nbsp;and&nbsp;took&nbsp;many&nbsp;pictures&nbsp;to&nbsp;keep&nbsp;every&nbsp;joyful&nbsp;yet spooky moment in my memory. I&nbsp;hope&nbsp;our&nbsp;class&nbsp;will&nbsp;have&nbsp;an&nbsp;amazing&nbsp;field&nbsp;trip&nbsp;like&nbsp;this&nbsp;again.&nbsp;And&nbsp;if&nbsp;you are interested in going there, you can follow the link below.&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.roeddehouse.org\/\">https:\/\/www.roeddehouse.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Written by Cherilyn Sathorn 2022 Cohort A&nbsp;few&nbsp;days&nbsp;ago,&nbsp;I&nbsp;went&nbsp;on&nbsp;a&nbsp;field&nbsp;trip&nbsp;with&nbsp;my Pre-MDM classmates at the Roedde House Museum in Vancouver&#8217;s West End, which is<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/2022\/11\/10\/do-you-believe-in-mysteries\/\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Do you Believe in Mysteries?<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1636,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[122],"tags":[3],"class_list":["post-1612","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-field-trips","tag-premdm"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1612","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1612"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1612\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1622,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1612\/revisions\/1622"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1612"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1612"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.thecdm.ca\/techspeak\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1612"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
