South Dakota's Most Haunted Hotel

Historic Bullock Hotel

No visit to downtown Deadwood would be complete without a visit to the first and spookiest hotel in the city. Sheriff Seth Bullock is said to still roam the hotel and is particularly active when he thinks employees aren't working as hard as they should be.

However, that doesn't account for all the late-night strange occurrences that visitors and other employees have noted.

In any case, if you have a desire to explore a real Wild West kind of "I do believe in spooks" experience, the Bullock Hotel is definitely one of the most haunted places in South Dakota to do it!

Minnesota's Most Haunted Hotel

The Palmer House

Sauk Centre, Minnesota used to have a rather rowdy brothel and saloon. It burned to the ground in 1900. It was replaced with the beautiful Palmer House Hotel. But apparently, some of the old spirits decided to hang around and entertain themselves at the expense of staff and guests.

Some of the stories from guests include having their names called, being touched while they were sleeping, having their thermostats drop drastically in their room, and seeing shadows in places all over the hotel.

Spook historians believe that two of the ghosts have connections to the hotel's past as a brothel- - and employees love to share the stories, so be sure to ask.

Iowa's Most Haunted Hotel

Mason House Inn

This quaint building in Keosauqua, which now houses an 8-room bed-and-breakfast has been many things during its existence. It was a Civil War hospital, a tuberculosis sanitarium, an Underground Railroad stop, and even a boarding house for school teachers.

As you can imagine a lot of guests have stayed at the inn throughout it's long history and some chose to just stay put, period. Some sources believe the Mason House Inn may be one of the most haunted places in Iowa.

Some of the more colorful spirits are even referred to by names like The Old Man, Fannie Mason Kurtz, and The Old Lady in White, among many others.

The owners say that their ghosts aren't scary ones however, so if you're looking for a creepy haunt, this isn't the place for you. Their spirits are all friendly and just want to hang around.
