To get you in the mood.


Places in Utah that are supposedly haunted and their stories...

Salt Lake City Cemetery: Featuring the famous Emo's grave, and different sections such as the war memorials, and catholic sections that have been reported to be good places for EVP. It's huge and can be pretty spooky at night, which makes it a fantastic place for a rookie ghosthunter.

Fort Douglas at the University Of Utah: This old military fort and cemetery are reportedly haunted by a ghost named "Clem." During the month of October they offer tours and stories about the ghost but you can go there anytime and find out for yourself.

The McCune Mansion: A popular site for weddings and receptions in SLC, supposedly very haunted. Rooms have been decorated the night before the wedding and the next morning everything is in disarray. Doors will lock even though they don't have locks on them, also many cold spots in the old house. The owner reports that several times as he's been driving away from the house he will see in the rear view mirror the lights going on and off all throughout the house.

Payson Cemetery: Small town cemetery's can be gold mines for ghost hunting. Payson is famous for multiple sightings of "orbs," or small free-floating, moving balls of light, that are thought to be concentrated spirit energy by some experts.

Utah State Historical Society: Built almost a century ago, a female apparition is rumored to be haunting the mexican restaurant in the old train depot. Supposedly she was hit by a train while trying to retrieve a ring her boyfriend had thrown on the tracks. Many customers have claimed that she haunts the ladies restroom in the restaurant.

Shiloh Inn: This hotel in downtown SLC, is supposedly a hotbed for paranormal activity. The story is that a woman and her child either committed suicide or the elevator fell and killed them, I have heard it both ways. The halls are supposedly great for EVP and for multiple "cold spots."

Anywhere in Ogden: It's spooky, even during the day.
