]]>Fans of Stephen King’s 1977 horror novel “The Shining,” may be familiar with the Stanley Hotel as the inspiration behind the story’s Overlook Hotel. In real life, the Stanley is believed to be one of the most haunted hotels in America, occupied by the ghost of its former owner Freelan Stanley’s wife Flora, among other spirits. With four restaurants and a whiskey bar, it has no shortage of places for guests hoping to encounter some paranormal activity to dine as they wait.
Located in the historic town of Deadwood, this hotel and restaurant dates back to the days of the Wild West. Visitors and hotel workers have reported encounters with the hotel’s original owner, Seth Bullock, since his death in 1919, sharing that his ghost continues to keep a watchful eye over the establishment. Enjoy a meal at Bully’s, the in-house restaurant and bar, or book a room and stay overnight—if you’re brave enough, that is.
One of Savannah’s oldest restaurants is also believed to be the city’s most haunted. Since 1754, The Pirates’ House has hosted more than its fair share of questionable guests, initially operating as a gathering place for criminals and sailors. Today, its historic charm and fascinating history draw diners from around the world hoping to catch a glimpse of pirate apparitions.

]]>Would you dare stay at this hotel from Stephen King’s The Shining. Regarded as the most “spirited” hotel in the U.S., The Stanley was built in 1909 and it was the inspiration for the book. F.O. Stanley, the original owner, and his wife, are said to haunt visitors by playing piano and laughing. There are also tours of the underground tunnel beneath the hotel.
Built in 1902, this hotel was made for Caroline Foster, the wife of railroad tycoon Joseph Stickney. Visitors have reported seeing Caroline and hearing taps on the door when no one was outside. They’ve also said their things disappear often.
This hotel in the deep south is reminiscent of the Civil War Era. The two townhouses constructed by two brothers-in-law as gifts for the two sisters of the family are said to be haunted and that they never left. Guests report seeing a ghostly figure in red, chandeliers swinging, furniture moving on its own, and light turning on themselves.
