Looking for a quick getaway to someplace unique in Illinois? How does staying overnight at one of the most unique homes in the state sound to you?

One-Of-A-Kind Home in Illinois

One house in Lincoln, Illinois has been talked about for years for two big reasons:

  1. It's unique octagon shape. (no room in the house is square!)
  2. It's striking black exterior and interior.

This house, often called the "Goth House" was originally built in 1993, but it didn't receive its stunning black makeover until 2021. Pictures of it have gone viral on social media for years, but now it's an Airbnb called Wednesday's Lair.

Whether you're a big fan of the Addams Family, or just love the color black like me, this house is definitely something to see and experience for yourself...

Wednesday's Lair is located in a quiet residential neighborhood just a short distance from Lincoln's historic downtown square, and the backyard space has a private patio pergola and fire pit, so there are plenty of fun things to do while staying there.

The Airbnb can sleep 6 guests and features two bedrooms, two bathrooms, an open concept living and dining area, galley kitchen, and plenty of moody vibes to enjoy.

If you are a big fan of the Netflix show 'Wednesday' and can't wait to watch the season 3 premiere on February 25, you'll be happy to know that weekend is still available to reserve on Airbnb!

Here's a quick preview of the quirkiness that awaits you...
