The Legend of Inunaki Village

The Legend of the Inunaki Village

Located in the countryside of Kyushu’s Fukuoka Prefecture, lies the lost Inunaki village, a place that exists apart from civilization as we know it. In fact, when you come to the entrance to the village, you will be greeted by signs warning that “the constitution and laws of Japan do not apply here.” Today, Inunaki village and the Old Inunaki Tunnel are considered to be one of the most haunted locations in all of Japan.

The Sausage Ghost of Chicago

The Sausage Ghost of Chicago

While the name may sound made up, I assure you the tale is anything but. In Chicago, Illinois, on the south side of the 1700 block of West Diversey Parkway, you will find residential condominiums. But it wasn’t always that way. Once that area was home to a factory – a sausage factory to be precise, and now home to the Sausage Ghost.

Poenari Castle, Dracula’s Mountain Fortress

Poenari Castle, Dracula's Mountain Fortress

Dracula, king of all vampires, first of his kind, was just a man. The story, written by Bram Stoker (Author of Bram Stoker’s Dracula), took the legacy of a man, and made it the basis for his book. A story that has spanned the ages. The man was Vlad Tepes, also known as Vlad the Impaler, and he once ruled over Wallachia. The horrors of his rule are remembered to this day. When we think of Vlad Tepes, we think of Transylvania and Dracula’s castle, and while he did have a castle, he also had a fortress. Poenari Fortress, also called Poenari Castle, or Castle Arges is believed by some to be haunted.

The Ghosts of LaLaurie Mansion

LaLaurie Mansion

Imagine if you will, being a young girl, a student at an all-girls school in New Orleans, Louisiana. This was a new school, a primary school for young African-American ladies. A place to learn and grow. But unfortunately, that’s not all that would happen. You would be physically assaulted, running to your teacher with your sleeve rolled up, showing your forearm, scratched and bruised. You can’t help but cry, and when the teacher would ask, “Who did this to you?” the only thing you could say was, “That woman.” What woman would do such a thing? Who, or rather what, was in that school? What if I told you, that the school was once known as the LaLaurie Mansion?

The Haunted Millennium Biltmore Hotel

Built in 1922, the Millennium Biltmore Hotel is as iconic as the names that have walked through its doors. Stars like studio head Jack Warner, filmmaker Cecil B. DeMille, actress Mary Pickford, and gangsters Al Capone and Bugsy Siegel. The hotel was once the location of the Academy Awards (1928, 1935-1939, 1941-1942). It even operated as a speakeasy during the prohibition era. Some elements of this history still remain, with a recessed spot for hiding liquor in the presidential suite, and a hidden door that helped folks evade police by leading them through a room and out to the streets unnoticed. Today though, the hotel is known for a much different reason. The Millennium Biltmore Hotel is haunted.
