Oregon: Shanghai Tunnels, Portland - Even without the presence of ghosts and ghouls, Portland's echoing Shanghai Tunnels would be enough to get your heart pumping. These mysterious passageways were used to transport goods in the 1800s and 1900s but, most harrowing of all, they were known as a site of "shanghaiing": young men were captured as slaves and sold off as sailors. The spirits off these ill-fated men are said to linger on, making themselves known with whistles and flitting shadows. Have you ever visited these tunnels?

Pennsylvania: Eastern State Penitentiary, Philadelphia - A notoriously intimidating prison that's been abandoned for decades seems a ripe breeding ground for spirits – so it's no wonder that folks believe Eastern State Pen is haunted.

Today it's thought that the spirits of some unlucky prisoners linger on within the deserted walls. Book an after-dark tour for an extra spooky experience. Have you ever visited this penitentiary?

Rhode Island: White Horse Tavern, Newport - The White Horse Tavern is known as the oldest tavern in America, so it should come as little surprise that it's also purported to be haunted.

Among the known apparitions is an elderly gentleman and a ghostly sailor who apparently died here. Have you ever visited this tavern?

South Carolina: 20 South Battery, Charleston - Charleston is so charming that it's apparently impossible to leave, even in the afterlife. And the city's ghostly residents are said to favor 20 South Battery, a hotel considered one of the most haunted places in the South.

Among them is the so-called "Gentleman Ghost", a gentle apparition manifesting as a gray shadow. Have you ever stayed at this hotel?
