HAUNTED AMERICA
HAUNTED HOUSES • From dilapidated mansions to seemingly charming old cottages, these homes may have features that are not safe for Zillow—creaky floors, flickering lights, and ghostly whispers are just the start of the spookiness that follows. Whether you’re a skeptic or a believer, one thing is for sure: If you hear footsteps in the attic, it’s probably not the family cat—unless your cat weighs 200 pounds and has an interest in midnight strolls. Ghost stories, history, and the occasional poltergeist prank await. Just don’t forget to keep your flashlight on.
I Knew My Dream Home Was Haunted, But I Bought It Anyway • ANNIE WILDER DIDN’T CHOOSE HER HOUSE. THE HOUSE CHOSE HER.
GHOST HOTELS • Creaking doors are the least of your worries at these once-glamorous lodgings now haunted by time—and something else entirely. Whether it’s a windswept inn on the New England cliffs or a dusty desert hideaway out West, these hotels have residents that never checked out. Modern-day guests report phantom voices in empty rooms, otherworldly chills that seep through the walls after midnight, and ghostly footsteps echoing down long-abandoned hallways, revealing the restless spirits dying to welcome you in.

CHILLING DESTINATIONS • Hidden in the creepiest corners of the country are all the places you definitely should avoid after dark. Think haunted cemeteries, jails with more than just skeletons rattling inside, battlefields still vibrating with deadly cannon fire, and asylums that make your spine crawl just reading about them. Don’t forget about the lonely lighthouses where the only thing brighter than the beam is the ghostly glare of the keeper; the echoing schoolhouses where recess ended a century ago; and the eerie energy emanating from underground caves. Because what’s scarier than a pitch-black hole in the ground full of echoes, bats, and possibly 19th-century miners who never clocked out? Are you brave enough to ignore your GPS when it says, “Are you sure you want to go there?”
