Haunted Hotels

I love scary movies, haunted houses and anything eerie. This is a guide to 8 of the best known haunted hotels in the country.....road trip anyone?

Ivy House Bed and Breakfast

Built in 1916, this Inn in Wyoming is said to be haunted by Mrs. White, the previous owner, and her 2 Siamese cats! Look for them to be sleeping at the end of your bed while purring the night away and look for her face popping up in mirrors throughout the hotel. She is said to oppose drinking and smoking, so if you want to steer clear of her, don’t be a bad boy!

Velda Rose Resort Hotel and Spa

While enjoying one of their 2 hour tours, guests are provided with real paranormal hunting equipment so you can record your haunted findings, in black light and all. This Resort in Arkansas is said to have meandering ghosts who ride elevators and trapse through the property. Oh, hot springs near by as well.

Buxton Inn

Originally a Stage Coach stop built in 1812, this old Inn, with several rooms, is said to have ghosts galore and even the ghost of a cat who doesn’t want to leave. Guests say they hear footsteps, doors opening and closing and feel sudden drops in temperature. I see dead people.

Lizzie Borden Bed and Breakfast

Lizzie Borden took an axe and gace her mother forty whacks. At this bed and breakfast located in Massachsetts, guests are said to hear faint crying sounds of young Lizzie Borden and see the the impression of faces that were laying on their pillow cases. Another well known ghost here is the housekeeper, still dressed in her Victorian garb. The Borden family tombstones are still in the nearby cemetary.
