The Hitchcock Estate in Millbrook, New York is a historic mansion and surrounding grounds, associated with Timothy Leary and the psychedelic movement. It is often referred to in this context as just Millbrook; it is also sometimes called by its original name, Daheim. The {{convert|2300|acre|km2|adj=on}}[1] (or {{convert|2500|acre|km2|adj=on}})[3] estate was purchased in stages by assembling five farms,[1] beginning in 1889,[5] by German-born acetylene gas mogul Charles F. Dieterich (1836–1927),[3] a founder of Union Carbide.[1] In 1912 Addison Mizner designed the four-story[8] 38-room[9] mansion which Dieterich named "Daheim" ("Home").[10][3][5] Featuring turrets, verandas, and gardens,[8] the late-Victorian mansion has been described architecturally as Queen Anne style or Bavarian Baroque.[3] The estate also featured a large gatehouse, horse stables, and other outbuildings. Ownership of the estate passed from Dieterich's heirs to oilman Walter C. Teagle and then to the Hitchcock family.[10] Siblings William Mellon "Billy" Hitchcock, Tommy Hitchcock III, and Margaret Mellon "Peggy" Hitchcock, heirs to the Mellon fortune (children of Tommy Hitchcock Jr., grandchildren of oilman William Larimer Mellon, Sr., and great-great-grandchildren of Mellon fortune founder Thomas Mellon), who were familiar with Timothy Leary's work and Leary personally, gave the estate over for use by Leary[16] in 1963.[3] Peggy Hitchcock was director of the Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert's International Federation for Internal Freedom (IFIF)'s New York branch, and her brother Billy rented the estate to IFIF (later re-named the Castalia Foundation).[1] Leary and the group he gathered around him lived at the estate and performed research into psychedelics there. The Castalia Foundation also hosted weekend retreats on the estate where people paid to undergo the psychedelic experience without drugs, through meditation, yoga, and group therapy sessions.[19] Leary wrote (with Richard Alpert and Ralph Metzner) the 1964 book "The Psychedelic Experience" at the mansion.[3][2] People who lived at the estate included Richard Alpert and Maynard Ferguson, while the numerous visitors and guests included R. D. Laing, Alan Watts, Allen Ginsberg, Charles Mingus, Helen Merrill and Ivy League academics.[3] Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters visited in their bus Further.[3] Nina Graboi described Millbrook as "a cross between a country club, a madhouse, a research institute, a monastery, and a Fellini movie set. When you entered you were greeted by a sign that asked you to 'kindly check your esteemed ego at the door.'" [4] During Leary's residence at the mansion (1963–1968) the culture and ambiance there evolved from scholarly research into psychedelics to a more party-oriented atmosphere, exacerbated by an increasing stream of visitors, some youthful and of the hippie persuasion.[3] The mansion was the target of drug raids.[8] Leary and his group were evicted in 1968; Leary moved to California.[19] The mansion was later boarded up and fell into disrepair including structural degradation, but after about two decades of effort it is ({{asof|2016|lc=y}}) habitable although not modernized.[9][10] It is still owned by the Hitchcock family.[3] In 2003, Hudsonia Institute[5] scientists discovered on the estate a circumneutral bog lake (a spring fed calcareous body of water that usually supports the vegetation of both acidic bogs and calcareous marshes), rare in the area and worthy of preservation.[5] References1. ^{{cite book |last1=Lee |first1=Martin A. |last2=Shlain |first2=Bruce |date=1992 |title=Acid Dreams: The Complete Social History of LSD : The CIA, the Sixties, and Beyond |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=_oq8djFLFL0C&l |publisher=Grove Press |pages=97–98 |isbn=978-0802130624}} [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13]2. ^{{cite book| last1 = Leary | first1 = Timothy| last2 = Alpert | first2 = Richard|last3 = Metzner | first3 = Ralph|title = The Psychedelic Experience: A Manual Based on the Tibetan Book of the Dead| publisher = Penguin Classics| page = 11| date = 2008| isbn = 0141189630}} 3. ^{{cite book| last = Leary| first = Timothy|title = Flashbacks| publisher = Heinemann| page = 206| date = 1983| isbn = 0434409758}} 4. ^{{cite book|last=Graboi|first=Nina|title=One Foot in the Future: A Woman's Spiritual Journey|date=May 1991|publisher=Aerial Press|page=164|isbn=978-0942344103}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=http://hudsonia.org/|title=Hudsonia Ltd.|publisher=}} 6. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 {{cite web |url=http://staceface.net/blog/?p=519 |title=Millbrook Revisited |author=Stacey Scewczyk |date=May 13, 2014 |work=Staceface.net |accessdate=July 3, 2016}} {{Better source|reason=It's apparently just some random person's blog |date=July 2016}} 7. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.newenglandhistoricalsociety.com/surprising-list-of-10-new-englanders-turned-on-by-timothy-leary/ |title=Surprising List of 10 New Englanders Turned On By Timothy Leary |date=2013 |publisher=New England Historical Society |accessdate=July 3, 2016}} 8. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=http://localeastvillage.com/2012/02/19/bob-simmons-on-timothy-leary-and-the-millbrook-%e2%80%9ctouch-of-evil%e2%80%9d/ |title=Bob Simmons on Timothy Leary and the Raid on Millbrook |author=Bob Simmons |date=February 19, 2012 |work=The Local – East Village |publisher=New York Times |accessdate=July 3, 2016}} 9. ^1 2 {{cite web |url=http://www.themillbrookindependent.com/content/john-foreman-1945-2016 |title=John Foreman 1945 – 2016 |author= |date=April 5, 2016 |work=Millbrook [New York] Independent |accessdate=July 3, 2016}} 10. ^1 2 3 {{cite web |url=https://www.mail-archive.com/sixties-l@googlegroups.com/msg00883.html |title=Hitchcock estate home to rare scientific finds |author=Janine Stankus |date=December 26, 2008 |work=Zwire |accessdate=July 3, 2016}} {{Better source|reason=Not clear what's going on here, but it appears to be just an email, but then it is a posting of what appears to be an actual article, but then the publisher of that seems to be "Zwire" which doesn't exist and isn't archived.
