While “scary” isn’t typically a selling point, many towns embrace their haunted past. For those brave enough to sleep where the spirits roam, Hotels.com offers access to some of the most haunted properties as recommended by real guest reviews. From ghostly encounters to eerie sightings, these hotels embrace the supernatural.

 

“I have no idea why someone would want to stay in a haunted hotel, but if sharing space with the supernatural is on someone’s must-haves along with nice linens and room service, Hotels.com is here to help,” says Melanie Fish, Head of Global PR at Hotels.com. “For One Key members, VIP Access properties ensure exclusive perks like free breakfast or late checkout — we’re working on adding guaranteed ghost sightings but these spirits are hard to pin down”.
