Hello and welcome back to the Most Amazing Channel on the internet.
I am your host, Rebecca Felgate and today we’re talking about the Top 10 Scary Haunted
Places You Can Rent On Air BnB.
I love a good Air Bnb, for me, it is one of the most affordable but comfortable ways to
travel…however, there are a few places I would absolutely not be staying… because
of …ghosts!
Before we jump into this video, I want to ask you guys if you believe in Ghosts?
Let me know in the comments section down below.
Also if you guys want to connect with me on social media, please check out my link in
the description box.
Okay!!!
10 - Laura's Cottage Ooh, a haunted cottage, spooky!
So, who is Laura and who is haunting her cottage?
Well, it seems that Laura’s cottage in Savanah is haunted by none other than Laura herself.
Laura lived in the cabin, which dates back to 1799, for 50 years, according to the Airbnb
lister.
If you want to know what Laura looks like, there is a picture of her on the mantlepiece
– she looks like a lovely lady who I would very much have enjoyed meeting…before she
died anyway….
As a ghost…I am not so sure.
It seems that guests at the cabin have come across Laura a number of times.
One guest wrote that Laura visited on three occasions.
They said: Laura made herself known to us on 3 visits.
The first was by opening a downstairs window from the bottom up on one chilly morning.
The window was locked!
Soon after she flickered the lights over the dining table, and the bulbs were in nice and
tight.
On the coldest night of the year, you could smell wood smoldering like a campfire after
the water had been poured on it.
It was on and off, but so strong that we checked the cottage.
Laura was telling us she would keep us warm.
We never saw or heard her, but she was there.”
Well, she does sound like a friendly ghost!
Fun additional fact – Laura’s cottage was used in Robert Redford’s film, The Conspirator.
9 - Parks-Bowman Mansion Ooh, I would love to go to New Orleans!
I don’t know about staying in the 130-year-old Parks Bowman mansion, though.
Ghosts are one thing, but little girl ghosts are the scariest!
The owner of this otherwise lovely looking property, filmmaker Adrienne Parks Bowman,
says that the ghost is friendly if a little shy.
The listing reads that she is a young girl in a yellow dress from the 1890s.
The girl is thought to be one of the beloved seven daughters from the homes 19th-century
owners.
The ghosts seem to exclusive haunt the bedroom on offer in the listing, and one guest said
they heard tiny footsteps dancing around the bed.
They said it sounded like a young person who had a long skirt on – saying they could
hear what sounded like taffeta rustling on the ground.
The ghost is benevolent, it seems.
Adrienne said that one guest experienced someone giving him mouth to mouth after a bad dream.
8 - Highlands Mansion Don’t we all love a bit of the Rocky Mountains!
I would love to say in a mansion there and enjoy the atmosphere of this historic part
of Denver, near the Rockies.
But wait… there might be a bit more atmosphere here than bargained for!
Unfortunately, the home was the scene of a nasty crime.
In October 1970, two girls were victims of murder in that very house.
17-year-old Cara Lee Knoche and her friend, Marianne Weaver, were murdered at the property
in Cara’s second-floor apartment.
The Airbnb listing even contains a newspaper cutting of the incident from the Rocky Mountains
News Publication in the 70s.
It seems the ghosts aren’t too active these days though, the main thing guests seem to
have focused has been the Jacuzzi in the bedroom!
7.
The Rustic Carriage House – Came alone but woke up with someone, or something
sleeping next to you?
Sure, you may have had too many pints at the local inn, or you might be experiencing one
if the Rustic Carriage House’s frequent hauntings.
The house is located in Charleston and dates back to 1843, although the history of the
area goes back a lot longer.
One of the rooms of the grand house, room 8 as it is known, there is said to be a headless
ghost that haunts the space.
One self-confessed skeptic says he woke up one night in 1993 to see a headless torso
in bed with him.
When he moved, he says that the ghost growled at him.
Those who rent the room suspect that the headless ghost was a civil war soldier who met the
wrong end of a gun in the area.
Another ghost haunts room ten, and it is another spectral bedfellow!
Blimey!
The ghost of room ten is supposed to be a rather forward man who likes to climb in bed
with women.
The ghost has garnered the nickname the Gentleman Ghost.
While I wouldn’t say that climbing into bed with unknown women is very Gentlemanly,
apparently chappy boy disappears through what was once a door in the room when a lady wakes
and protests …. Protests is just a nicer word for screams, right?
So yeah, ladies who are lonesome, people that like headless soldiers…the Rustic Carriage
House is for you.
6.
Captain Grant's Ooh, I love a good captain!
So for around 180 dollars a night, you can stay in this ye olde building dating back
to 1754.
Captain Grant’s is located in the historic area of the Connecticut mystic coast and country.
Of course, a building that old is bound to have seen some action over its years.
Apparently, the Adelaide room is the most haunted.
A review of the property said that the historic inn is also home to a sweet black cat called
Molly that keeps the spirits happy when no one is staying there.
Is it the house that is haunted, or are the spirits drifting in from the two nearby cemeteries.
Who knows?
One guest wrote that they out children's toys out in their room for the children ghosts
to play with.
That is very thoughtful of them!
5 Talliston Estate Goodness me, this room couldn’t look anymore
haunted if it tried.
The listing says that the room is decorated in Scottish Art Nouveau style and recreates
in nightmarish detail the bedchamber of a seven-year-old Edwardian child complete with
books, toys, and ephemera.
There is even a crucifix above the bed!
WHY THOUGH!
It may boast the looks, but does it come packing the spirit.
The answer is….
Maybe.
This room certainly looks like the spookiest around, but it may not actually be boasting
a ghost.
The home is an ex-council house in Dunmow, Essex and has been renovated to astonishing
detail!
The Bedroom matches a Scottish Edwardian dining hall downstairs, but the home also has a Cambodian
Tree House Room, a Moorish bedroom, and a 1950s New Orleans kitchen.
It certainly looks spooky, and with the amount of money Home Owner John has spent on transforming
the property, I can only imagine he could manufacture a simulated ghost to add a bit
more atmosphere.
4 - Terlingua Ghost Town I love the look of this property!
For me, this would feel like sleeping on a film set, but actually, it is the ruin of
a genuine ghost town, which is even cooler!
The ghost town of Terlingua, an old mining district in Texas on the border between the
USA and Mexico.
The house is a stacked limestone cabin and the porch offers incredible views of mountains
and the badlands.
The property is very remote and doesn’t have any internet, which makes it even scarier
for the modern day traveler!
There are for sure going to be some ghosts of old miners clanging around the abandoned
mines at night, peeping in windows trying to get home.
I think it would be incredible to spend the night here, but you would need your wits about
you.
3 The Madness Chamber – We have a lot of ghosts knocking around the
British Isles, especially in places like York, a walled city in the North of England that
dates back to ancient Roman times.
That city has seen it all and was instrumental throughout the Tudor era.
This property dates back 600 years to a more bloodthirsty era and has a room called the
Madness Chamber….
Would you want to stay in the Madness Chamber…..
I am not sure if I would!
The owners say they have had people walk into their property, which costs 120 pounds a night
to stay in and said they do not like the energy and have left.
According to news coverage, the property is the most haunted in the UK!
There is a beware of the ghost sign above the fireplace as well as a legit ghost detector
in the building.
Apparently, the ghost of the Madness Chamber has long dark hair and wears a cap.
He seems to like peering over shoulders!
I have to say, though The creepiest thing about this property for me is the taxidermy
bats!
Ahh, some heartbreak at number 2, we have Castello dal Pazzo
This incredible 8 bedroom property comes with a pretty hefty price tag!
For over 4 thousand dollars a night, guests can stay in the Italian Castello, perched
on a hill.
The property is romantically gothic, the kind of place you can imagine dracular drawing
you into his thrawl.
The ghost that stalks the beautiful grounds is called the Lady in Waiting and is indeed
said to have been broken hearted.
The girl was thought to have been called Barbara and she supposedly died of a broken heart
In 1467 when she waited for her love to return to her.
It is said that at night it is possible to hear her sighs and wails of heartbroken despair
coming from the Tower.
Eeesh…uncontrollable screaming and dead child ghosts at number 1!
Grand Midway Hotel The derelict Grand Midway Hotel in Pittsburgh
was bought for just 11 thousand dollars in 2001.
Since then, owner Blair Murphy has been working to restore the 130-year-old haunted building
and now two of its rooms have been listed on air bnb – the traveler's suit and the
reassuringly named Vampire Suite.
Speaking of the ghostly activity, Murphy said “For years this place had creepy stuff,
not like terrifying, but just like weird stuff.
Like you could be in a room and say something might happen like something falls over as
if it seems like its answering you.”
Murphy said one of the Ghosts is called Squidlana and likes to pinch people.
One guest was so scared of the ghostly activity, they called the police.
The guest reportedly wouldn’t stop screaming.
Murphy said: The screaming went on and on.
So everyone ran upstairs to the third floor, and she was on the floor.
She just lost all control of her body, and she was out of it, screaming.
She said later that she had touched the lamp and she had zapped her finger … then she
turned and said she saw a little dead child screaming at her.
Want to chat to the ghosts, no worries, Murphy has even painted an ouija board on the roof
so guests can contact spirits if they want to.
So that was the top 10 Scary haunted places you can rent on Airbnb!
Would you stay in any of these?
Don’t forget to tell me if you believe in ghosts.
Before I go, I quickly want to reply to a few comments you left on one of my recent
videos.
This one was the Top 10 Scary Cursed songs you shouldn’t listen to part - here is what
