I'm going to a haunted inn for my birthday today, and thought that we should perhaps have a thread where people can post their haunted hotel/bed and breakfast/inn and even restaurant locations. Do you know of one? If so, tell us about it!

Rose Red is actually Thornewood Castle - a Bed and Breakfast in Lakewood near Tacoma (next to Seattle, WA) and is reputedly haunted.
Have another B&B for you as soon as I can get google to work again

Magnolia's Vineyard in Orefield, PA is haunted. It's right up the road from my parent's house, my son worked there a few months as a dishwasher and he says that yep, it is.

yvw Sunflower, Glad you were successful with your download, I tried downloading that Quicktime and it didn't come in right..I just picked to download the minimum requirements, where I should have maybe chosen the Custom button, but you got a lot of other free stuff with that I wasnt sure I wanted..lol..I am just winging this! There is also another link on the bottom of that article, which gives reservation information and telephone numbers, an additional information. ~Trippy

There is a haunted B&B in Greensboro, Georgia. I don't know if it is still
open, but my husband knows a family that used to run the B&B and said there
was a little girl killed while playing on a swing years and years ago. She
is said to still haunt the yard and the B&B. My husband went to school with
2 boys who were living at the B&B who were terrified of the hauntings going
on there. Jeanie

I'm going to a haunted city for my birthday!!! I'm visiting Charleston, South Carolina again in September.
One haunted inn is the Battery Carriage House Inn, converted from the carriage house and other outbuildings behind the Steven-Lathers mansion, a private home that predates the Civil War and is located along Battery Park. The most well known ghosts there are two males, one called "the gentleman ghost" because he prefers the company of females and tries to cuddle with them but will leave immediately upon their discomfort. The other is a headless torso in rough clothing that also has a rough demeanor.
I'm debating about trying to spend my birthday there; one of the two people I stay with in Charleston lives only a few blocks away from it. I'm trying to be practical but I'm also very curious!!!
A haunted restaurant there is Poogan's Porch. It has gained renown more for its food (which is very good) than its ghosts, but it also has two. Lesser known of the two (because his presence hasn't been detected that often) is Poogan, the dog for whom the restaurant was named. He belonged to a family who moved away from the house when it was still residential. Poogan lived on the porch and was cared for by neighbors until someone else bought the house to convert it into the restaurant it now is. Poogan became the ambassador and, the restaurant site says, was the first to greet the first customer. Poogan lived there until his death and a stone marks the spot in the yard where he's buried. I've read that some people have felt a small dog around their feet, but of course nothing is there when they look.
The other ghost is a former owner of the house, a schoolteacher who never married named Zoe St. Amand. She has been seen coming in near closing time but disappears if anyone tries to talk to her. Sometimes when the restaurant is closed people at the hotel across the street have seen an elderly woman looking out one of the upstairs windows. She makes herself known without being sighted, too, causing crashing noises and, in one account, even taking a drink of a carpenter's tea when he was alone in the house late at night and leaving her lipstick print.
Here in Oklahoma is the Stone Lion Inn in Guthrie. I've never been there - my bad; I work only about 30 miles away and live only 50 some miles away. The inn was once a family home and the ghost of a little girl has been seen and heard there.
Geez, I know more about what's hundreds of miles away than I do about what's in my own backyard!!!

Here's a couple for you. In gettysburg, there is actually 2 I beleive. The Cashtown Inn and the Farnsworth House. Both were used during teh civilwar. The cashtown Inn was used as one of teh rebel generals, Forgot which one, and teh Farnsworth House has ahd rebel sharpshooters hiding up in their attic. I know there is one more but can't think of teh name. It's right on teh battlefield.Any ways, they offer tours of teh Farnsworth House and teh haunted room can always be stayed in . I've been to teh farnsworth house. It gives off a certain vibe. The side of teh house is riddled wiht bullet holes. It's something to see and experiance.
