Tennessee Hotel Considered One of America’s Most Haunted Places

If you ask me if I believe in ghosts, I'm not going to give you the answer you are likely seeking, because it isn't yes or no. Do I think unusual, unexplainable things happen from time to time that some could attribute to an otherworldly force? Yes. Now, I might not call it an "otherworldly force" because that sounds a little too dramatic, like it overshoots the point. But I think you get what I mean.

Look, after my grandfather passed away in 1994, I was in his old apartment helping to box things up. I was alone. I felt a tap on my shoulder. There was no one there. THAT'S why I don't totally discount it.

That occurrence, among other things, is why I'm fascinated by videos of supernatural exploration. I realize that more than 90% of the ones I've seen, or maybe even ones that EXIST, don't really prove anything. But I'd be a game, open-minded participant nonetheless. These folks who examined the Thomas House Hotel in Red Boiling Springs TN for the Travel Channel captivated my interest as they investigated what is considered to be one of the most haunted places in the nation.

The Thomas House Hotel

Built in 1890, the beautiful old hotel has been the subject of reports of disembodied whistling, the creepy sound of unexplained children's laughter, apparitions in the hallway (that's checkout for me), and doors that open and close, seemingly by themselves.

Coupled with the presence of a cult in the early 1990s, the Thomas House Hotel would appear to have earned its frightening reputation honestly. Has anything ever been proven beyond the shadow of a doubt? No. But that doesn't stop the investigations from happening. It certainly doesn't stop the tales from being told.

Whatever the story is behind, well, who knows what, a reputation like this can only be GOOD for business. I'm certainly entertaining the idea of booking a room.
