Ghost stories run rampant in Pennsylvania. That really comes as no surprise, especially with Gettysburg earning status as perhaps the most haunted town in the United States. All those ghost tales mean one thing: we have a pretty good chance of experiencing the paranormal without traveling too far from home. However, just how brave are you? Do you have the courage, for example, to stay overnight at the enchanting but notoriously haunted Inn at Jim Thorpe? It’s said to be the most haunted hotel in Pennsylvania.
Jim Thorpe, affectionately known as The Switzerland of America, provides an idyllic backdrop for a getaway, boasting an enchanting downtown dotted with quaint shops and darling restaurants.

The charming small town in Pennsylvania promises a picture-perfect getaway any time of the year. You’ll need somewhere to stay overnight while you’re visiting, too.

If you want to experience the paranormal or at least increase your chances of coming face-to-face with the unknown, book a stay at the Inn at Jim Thorpe. Dripping with charm, the inn has a storied history dating back to 1833.

It’s also hosted some notable names – President William H. Taft and Ulysses S. Grant, for example – during its history. However, some of the guests who have checked in have apparently never checked out… at least not yet.

If you’re brave enough to check in, you might cross paths with a nurse who seems frustrated as she cares for a patient. You might see her apparition or feel a touch on your shoulder, only to turn around and find yourself alone.

Fall asleep in one of the cozy rooms, but don’t be too surprised if you wake up and find that the chairs have been turned upside down. The restless spirits may have also turned on the TV and moved furniture around.

Snap some photos of your room and the inn. Will strange orbs, figures, or shadows appear?

Do you hear that? The sound of children laughing – when there are no children – often wafts through the air. And if you hear knocking in your room in the middle of the night? Just another of those strange occurrences that have been reported by other guests.

Haunted Hotels In Pennsylvania August 25, 2022 Beth Price-Williams Is the Inn at Jim Thorpe haunted? There’s only really one way to decide if the Inn at Jim Thorpe in Pennsylvania is haunted, and that’s to plan a stay overnight. During the day, spend time exploring the Switzerland of Pennsylvania. The enchanting town of Jim Thorpe is known as a top fall destination in Pennsylvania, although it’s a popular spot all year around. It hosts an epic multi-weekend fall festival each October. Celebrate before checking into the haunted Inn at Jim Thorpe. What is the most haunted hotel in Pennsylvania? Well, “most” is a pretty subjective term when it comes to hauntings. We’ve got quite a few haunted hotels in Pennsylvania, including the Gettysburg Hotel. The site of one of the most brutal and deadly battles of the Civil War, Gettysburg is considered the most haunted town in Pennsylvania, so it’s fitting that it’s also home to a haunted hotel. Rachel, a Civil War nurse, is said to roam the halls of the hotel, in search of injured soldiers. Don’t be surprised if you wake up in the middle of the night to see her rifling through the drawers in your room. A few other apparitions, including that of a wounded soldier and a dancing woman, are also frequently seen in this historic Pennsylvania hotel. The Historic Hotel Bethlehem is also known as being incredibly haunted, but don’t worry. Those otherworldly souls who wander the hotel’s halls are friendly. Some guests also tell of seeing a young girl gazing out of one of the hotel’s windows. Weird occurrences are commonplace, too. You might hear someone calling your name or feel a tap on your shoulder, turn around, and find…you’re alone. Next time you’re in New Hope, book a stay at the Aaron Burr House. The haunted Pennsylvania hotel is said to be haunted by Burr himself, and he’s not afraid to make his presence known. If he likes you, he might pull at your shirt sleeve or follow you during your stay. He’s harmless, though.
