Lizzy Borden Bed & Breakfast in Fall River, Massachusetts

Lizzy Borden Bed & Breakfast in Fall River, Massachusetts When it comes to haunted bed and breakfasts, the Lizzy Borden House is a must visit. If you love scary stories as much as I do, then I'm sure you've heard the tale of Lizzy Borden. Her dad and stepmom, John and Abby Borden, were found murdered in their homes. John was struck with an axe 11 times and Abby had her skull crushed with 19 blows. Lizzie Borden was tried and acquitted for her parents' murder but she always remained the prime suspect for the crime in the public's eye. Now, more than 120 years later, you can visit the same house which has been turned into a bed and breakfast. It's said that John, Abby, and Lizzie all haunt the rooms. You can spend the night in the rooms where John and Abby were brutally slain. If that's too much for you, you can always just take the tour of the home every day from 11am - 3pm.

Foley House Inn in Savannah, Georgia

Foley House Inn in Savannah, Georgia Savannah is known as the most haunted city in America and the Foley House Inn Bed and Breakfast carries on this legacy.

Everything was fine in the Inn until a century later when the home went under renovations. Construction workers found human skeletal remains which set loose many other paranormal phenomena inside the home. The skeleton has never been identified.

pffff

Gabriela! agreed with you. Scary Scary movies are preferable ;)

Anyone else saw the ghost adventures Lizze Borden house episode?

I so want to go to all these places:)! I really don't care about ghosts or haunted things. You have to have a strong will. Our house I mexico is said the be haunted from the whole town since it was build under a cemetery so many years ago. Some people that visit us say they see or hear things but I haven't seem anything neither has my grandma. I even stay I'm the big house on my own in the dark while watching tv. I sleep in the "dark room" we call it that since there are no windows or a source of light. That room is said to be the most haunted but I sleep fine. I only once heard scratching at my door but I opened it and no one was there. I don't really feel harmed by anything unless your a person that would freak out by so something so little. I don't mind spirits.

I agree with alexis. One thing i just dont get where the ghosts get there smoke from is it still from old days or they just grab it from store lol i mean in every scary story thers a smoking fugure
