Following the January 1969 death of his father Easby lived by himself in the family's Baleroy Mansion, which is located in the historically affluent Chestnut Hill section of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It was given the title of the "Most Haunted Home in America", due to the supposed supernatural beings that inhabited the 32-room mansion. In 1990 Easby told "The Philadelphia Inquirer", "The neighbors worry that it might become a Disney World with buses and tourists, but heavens, I've assured them that it won't."
