We have several categories to choice from to browse the locations. Below we selected just a few random selections.

Bed and Breakfasts

There are instances when people feel that bed and breakfasts, which are typically attractive old properties, are haunted because of their historical context. Most often, bed and breakfasts are buildings with a rich and illustrious history, often dating back hundreds of years. After major events like deaths, disasters, or violent crimes, some buildings may acquire the reputation of being haunted within the community. Unlike hotels, bed & breakfasts often evoke uneasy feelings, as you are staying in someone's home or a museum. Such an experience can lead to feelings of intrusiveness rather than relaxation, as if you shouldn't be there. Bed and breakfasts may even choose to embrace their "haunted" reputation as a means of attracting visitors and ghost hunters. Such an approach would bolster the perception of haunted locations.

Government Buildings

The concept that government buildings, and the United States Capitol in particular, are haunted has their origins in a combination of historical occurrences, folklore, and the building's singular function as a symbol of authority and democracy. Tales of ghostly figures and unexplainable phenomena have resulted from this. Government buildings, like many other old buildings, have a rich history that is defined by both successes and tragedies. These tragedies include the deaths of famous individuals, political turbulence, and periods of national crises. As a result, the energy of these events often lingers, giving rise to stories that capture the imagination of visitors and locals alike. Visitors often feel uneasy or watched in these buildings, fueling the belief that they hold more than history.

Cemeteries

Most people believe cemeteries are void of paranormal activity because they are consecrated or because spirits don't return to their graves. However, cemeteries are often considered "haunted" because of their association with death and the unknown, as well as stories of disturbed graves, unmarked burials, tragic deaths, natural disasters that disrupt resting places, and the general sense of sadness and grief that surrounds a graveyard. All of these factors lead people to believe that spirits might linger in cemeteries.
