In Connecticut, historical buildings have a tendency to come with a ghost story or two. So it’s not surprising that one of the most historic restaurants in the state would have a rumor of paranormal activity attached to it. Formerly known as the Pettibone Tavern, the wonderful Abigail’s Grill & Wine Bar is said to be home to ghosts. Well, one ghost anyway. Mrs. Abigail Pettibone, the original owner, still resides here.
Abigail's Grill & Wine Bar is a classic colonial homestead.
Built in 1780, the rumors of a haunting for persisted for the past fifty years. While none of the owners have ever billed this place as a haunted attraction, the story is passed by locals and the paranormally sensitive alike.
It's hard to imagine a place like this being haunted.
The room is warm and inviting, and the menu is full of delicious options. Actually, the more you think about it, the easier it is to understand why Abigail would stick around!
Sightings are most common just outside the ladies' room. For a woman whose husband murdered her with an ax, she's surprisingly nice. She whispers to the staff and lights candles, but that's it. Nothing to be scared of!
Abigail’s Grill & Wine Bar Is located at 4 Hartford Road, Weatogue, Connecticut 06089. This fun and friendly haunting is nothing compared to the infamous Dudleytown. Check it out if you dare!
