Ghostly encounters have been reported in many locations across the US, and here are eight places around the country that are claimed to be haunted.
Marshall House, Savannah, Georgia
If you're on the hunt for a hotel with amenities that tap into another dimension, Marshall House in Savannah should be at the top of your list. One of the country's most haunted places to stay overnight, the hotel is in a building with a history that dates back to 1851. With a previous history as a hospital for Union soldiers and then yellow fever patients, the haunted rooms and hallways are known for many paranormal occurrences. Guests often report ghost encounters throughout the building, hearing ghost children running through hallways and sink faucets that mysteriously turn on.
Huguenot Cemetery, St Augustine, Florida
St Augustine is the oldest city in the US, and with a history that dates back to 1585, you better believe there are spirits that linger throughout the area. Start with a tour of Huguenot Cemetery, a hallowed ground since 1821 where many victims of yellow fever were laid to rest. The cemetery is estimated to hold 436 bodies, capped in 1884 when it reached capacity. Ghost sightings are reported at all times of the day and night. Be on the lookout for the most famous ghost that presides over the cemetery, the spirit of Judge John B. Stickney, a beloved St. Augustine denizen who died from yellow fever in 1882.
The Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, Colorado
The inspiration for Stephen King's The Shining, The Stanley Hotel's haunted lore lures guests to spend the night among the spirits that roam its halls. Haunted rooms, ghosts of service workers of the past that are spotted frequently throughout the premises and plenty of creeky wood give a thrill to those in search of hair-raising encounters. Screams are a bit more of a challenge here as the hotel's high elevation (7522 feet) finds you in dizzying thin air. Read More…
