Haunted Travel Sites

Earlier today I announced how I’m ceasing work on HauntJaunts.net the website (not the blog, just the website), but what I failed to do was mention some other haunted travel sites that I’d like to aspire to one day be like. (Well, some are not specifically travel oriented, but they can be used for that.)

Some of these sites I knew about before I started trying to make my version a reality. Some I came upon after. Some are why I decided to halt operations. (Some of their features are really cool. Mine was turning out to be so…basic. For lack of a better word. And that just wasn’t acceptable. I really like what I’ve done with the blog so far, but the website was proving more challenging and that was driving me crazy. Until I can contribute a WOW! factor too, I’ll just step aside and appreciate what these sites have done.)

So, without further ado, here’s a list of haunted travel sites I don’t think you’ll be disappointed visiting:

  • BedandBreakfast.com’s List of “Dead and Breakfasts” – There’s over 100 B&Bs on their list with reported ghostly activity. There are descriptions of the inns, the activity, history, and in some cases pictures of the properties.
  • Dark Destinations – They break things down By Category, By Country, and By State. They list lots of different things: bars and restaurants, lodging, Halloween events, conventions, movie sites…it’s quite the list. They definitely live up to their name, as they do include lots of Dark Destinations.
  • HauntedHouses.com – The graphic on their map is really cool. (A ghost face covers it.) Click a state on the map to find a haunted house. It’s simple in concept, but neat in design.
  • StrangeUSA.com – They also have a map, but the graphic is just a basic map. However, when you click a state you’re taken to a list of cities within the state with numbers beside them telling how many “strange” things have been reported there. You can also filter the listings to find specific things. Say for instance you’re looking for UFOs, or Haunts, or Abandoned places (they have other options too), you can find only what you’re looking for. The only thing I don’t like is you have to register as a user to see addresses of the locations, and they don’t always have the website links. But they do provide descriptions and let users leave comments about any experiences they’ve had.
  • UnearthlyRealms.com – This is probably one of my favorite haunted travel sites. (Well, it’s not just for travel. It lists haunted places in general, but they include a lot of Haunt Jaunts of the variety that appeal to me.) It also employs a map, but their map is dotted with little ghosties pinpointing haunted spots. And the color of the ghosts represent a star-level haunt rating. For instance, white ghosts get 1 star. (Least haunted.) Red ghosts merit a 5 star rating. (Or “haunting” as is their jargon. There’s not too many red ghosts.) The location (complete with address and pic if applicable) pop up when you click a ghost. If you want more info, there’s a link to click through further for that.

There’s also the sites I listed in another article I wrote about some other haunted travel sites I’d come across: A Ghost in My Suitcase, The Haunted Traveler, TravelParanormal.com, and the Shadowlands Haunted Places Index.

If any of these are new to you, I hope you enjoy using them to plan your next Haunt Jaunt!

(And if you know of any other sites similar to these, I’d appreciate a comment educating me about them. Thanks!)
