Description
Photograph of an exterior view of a "haunted house" on Juan Street, Chinatown, November 1933. The two-story brick house can be seen at center. A wooden overhang projects out over the porch, while a covered balcony can be seen on the second floor. Large rectangular windows and doors are visible. Large shutters nearly cover all the windows. A sign near the door advertises the fact that the property is for rent. At left, another two-story building can be seen, while at right, a wooden fence is visible.
