10 Most Haunted Places on Earth!

Accepting visitors to your home is one thing but visitations of the paranormal kind is completely another. Sure you will not have to worry about preparing your guest room or what to serve them for dinner. But if you look at the big picture, a surprise visit from a friend (or even a stranger) is better than an always-surprising drop-in from a strange and inexplicable entity. And if you live or work in one of the places below, you will surely be more welcoming to real people who visit without warning:

1. The Myrtles Plantation

Located in St. Francisville, Lousisina, this inn is said to be one of the most haunted places in America. This was built in 1796 by General David Bradford and is currently an inn. It has been said that at least 10 murders took place here. Considering that number, it’s no surprise that guests of this place can often see two ghost children playing in the veranda and ghost slaves walking around. They can also hear footsteps on the staircase and the grand piano playing by itself.

2. The Tower of London

Now this is a haunted place with ghosts that you can find in your history books. Also considered one of the most haunted places on Earth, the bricks of this castle were witnesses to countless of executions, tortures, and murders for the last thousand years. Two prominent ghosts include Lady Jane Grey and Ann Boleyn. Both were beheaded. The latter’s ghost has been seen carrying her head. Ghosts have also been spotted depicting the horrible death of the Countess of Salisbury. She was said to have been hacked to death by the axe man when she ran away from the spot where she was to be executed.

3. Rose Hall Great House

This haunted place is located in Jamaica. The sightings are generally due to its former mistress, Annie Palmer. Dubbed the “Black Witch,” she was said to have murdered three husbands and many slave lovers. She was also said to have sacrificed babies, tortured slaves, and many other gruesome things. She did these because she was bored, according to stories. Ghosts of her victims are said to haunt the grounds and rooms of the Rose Hall Great House.

4. The Whaley House

Scotland is said to be the most haunted place in Europe and one of the spots most active for paranormal sightings is Edinburgh Castle.

There have also been reports of ghost prisoners, a headless drummer, and a piper that can be seen and heard in the castle. The piper was said to have been hired to look into the underground tunnels of the castle. He played his piper while underground so that those above would know where he was but halfway through his exploration, he vanished.

6. The Stanley Hotel
