Visit the Most Haunted Places in Boston
Boston’s storied history is as unique as the town itself. Before it was famous for Fenway Park, baked beans, and craft beer, the American Revolution gripped the colonial town. Today, remnants of this violent era can still be seen and felt in several landmarks, such as The Bostonian Hotel in Boston and Faneuil Hall.
The spirits of disasters and tragedies lurk in the darkness, waiting to make themselves known to those who cross their paths. Boston Ghosts takes you on a journey through the cursed footsteps of Beantown’s most notable figures and introduces you to their former haunts that became their permanent ones.
