Haunted Hotels of the Northeast Region of the United States



“Ghosts are those memories that are too strong to be forgotten for good, echoing across the years and refusing to be obliterated by time.” – Caitlin R. Kiernan

Numerous haunted hotels abound within the American Northeast region. It comes as no surprise that this area of the nation is considered to be among the most intriguing when it comes to haunted places, ghost mysteries, and real ghost stories as all nine of the states in the area were among the very first of the historical thirteen colonies that settled in the nation within the seventeenth century and are backed by an immense amount of cultural, social, and religious history. These states include that of Massachusetts, New Jersey, Maine, Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Vermont, New York, and Connecticut. The states within the Northeast are divided between those that are considered to be Mid-Atlantic and those that are identified as New England states.

The Mid-Atlantic states was referred to as the “melting pot” in earliest of times due to the vast number of immigrants that flocked to the area from Europe. As time progressed, major routes for shipping developed along the major waterways. Various types of industries emerged. Job opportunities grew. As a result, immigrants from other regions of the world found their way to the area; therefore, making it an area of diverse nationalities, religions, and cultures. Many structures were built to accommodate the rapid influx of people. The most popular of these being hotels. As populations grew, people passed away, and the area expanded, many stories developed around these hotels which led people to believe that they were plagued by real ghost mysteries.

The New England states has the highest level of shared heritage of any other area within the country. These states have held the highest level of dominance within the history of America. Additionally, these states were considered to be the leaders of the earliest times in education, philosophy, culture, and politics. The earliest people in the area were Protestants from England. They sought out the area to pursue religious liberty. Numerous conflicts, major events in terms of the nation, and activities took place through these states – all of which seemed to contribute to the theory that the hotels within the area experienced many hauntings.
