Jefferson is a tiny little town in Texas that fewer than 2,000 people call home, but that’s only if we count the people we can see. This old pre-civil war town has had countless ghost stories swirling around for many generations, and there’s one historically haunted hotel here that many believe could be a portal to the other side. If you’re brave enough, you can rent a room at this haunted hotel in Texas and do a little paranormal investigating of your own. Who knows, you may just come face to face with a former resident that just can’t seem to cross over.
The building is well over 100 years old, and with many older buildings, a ghost story or two is bound to get passed down through the ages. This particular hotel, though, has more than one ghost story.
It was even a speakeasy and a gambling den at one point.
Whether it’s a haunted history or not, you can be the judge.
Many guests and employees have heard the sounds of children’s laughter and disembodied footsteps that sound like kids running down a hall…yet there are no children around.
The Vanishing Man is another commonly seen spirit. This tall male figure is always seen wearing a long coat and doesn’t do much, he just stands there…watching you. Some guests have even mistaken him for an employee, only to realize their mistake when they watch him vanish right before their eyes.
Sweet dreams!
