One of the exhibit areas is titled, “Haunted Legends,” and that’s where the legend of Stiffy Green lives on, much to the delight of school children.

The children especially enjoy exhibits or displays of Stiffy Green; Fort Harrison and the battle fought there in the War of 1812; a turn-of-the-century pharmacy; the Coca Cola display and the impact of philanthropist Chauncey Rose on Terre Haute.

Stiffy Green was a highlight for him.

He’s a stiffy boy, so you just go drag him out of that bus and tell him his mama say for you to do it.

Doctor Copeland held himself bolt upright with his long legs crossed and at first Portia sat stiffy, too.
