Wells Inn

Sistersville, WV   /   1 Review

316 Charles St, Sistersville, WV 26175, USA

Overview

Opened in 1895 by Ephraim Wells, the inn was originally built to provide a place for oil barons and upper-class citizens to relax. The founder is said to haunt this historic location, and the most haunted room is 324. The story goes that a maid went to clean the room, and she found the door stuck and was unable to open it. Each time she pulled the door open, it sucked itself shut as if someone was on the other side shutting the door. Footsteps can be heard on the second floor and walking down the various passageways as well.

The Haunted Forest Park Cemetery

387 Pinewoods Ave, Troy, NY 12180, USA

It goes without saying that cemeteries and graveyards are the final physical resting spots for a loved one’s remains. Dignity, proper decorum, and an overall sedated sort of existence, these cemeteries and graveyards are not the places for noisy human behavior. As it so happens in Troy, New York, at the Forest Park Cemetery, the quiet surroundings there have been unduly violated by the ghosts who long haunt this hallowed and sacred ground. The stretch of land that makes up the cemetery is believed to have been used as a graveyard all the way far back as 1856. Read more…
