What is the most haunted inn in Pennsylvania?
Is the Wedgwood Inn in New Hope haunted? Well, that depends on who you ask. (We give it a resounding “yes!”) Is it Pennsylvania’s most haunted inn? It could be, but it definitely has some competition – like the Inn at Jim Thorpe, nestled in the Switzerland of America. An idyllic weekend destination, Jim Thorpe promises a bit of yesteryear, and you won’t find a more enchanting spot to fall asleep at night than at this haunted inn in Pennsylvania…if you dare. Guests have come and gone at this darling downtown hotel, but some souls have stuck around for what could be centuries. The inn opened in the mid-1800s. Those who have visited this historic inn tell of running into a working nurse, frustrated as she cares for a patient. You might catch sight of her apparition or feel a touch on your shoulder…only to find yourself alone. Some of the spirits have a bit of a mischievous side, and you could be on the end of that mischief. You may fall asleep then wake up to find the chairs in your room overturned and the television on. It’s also common to see strange orbs and glowing lights, at least if you believe those who have visited this popular Jim Thorpe inn.
Are there any other haunted hotels in Pennsylvania?
Wedgwood Inn and the Inn at Jim Thorpe certainly aren’t the only haunted hotels in Pennsylvania. While you’re in New Hope visiting the Wedgwood Inn, stop by the Aaron Burr House, said to be haunted by its namesake. If he takes a liking to you, he might start following you around, pulling at your shirt sleeve, and making his presence known. When you’re standing outside of the Historic Hotel Bethlehem, look up at the windows. You might see the silhouette of a little girl – a ghost who has been a mainstay at the hotel for decades. Keep an eye out for Rachel, a Civil War nurse, at The Gettysburg Hotel. If you really want to increase your chances of experiencing the paranormal, visit Gettysburg. Just about everywhere you go has a tale of the paranormal attached to it.
