Parks-Bowman Mansion | New Orleans, La.


If you’re looking for a spooky but not terrifying night, then this New Orleans home is the perfect option. Haunted by a shy young girl from the 1890s, she’s unlikely to do you any harm.

Charming Rustic Carriage House | Charleston, S.C.


Charleston is considered one of the most haunted states in the country, so it seems fitting to stay at a haunted Airbnb while you’re at it. This place is known for a headless torso who doesn’t appear to be very friendly.

The Haunted Bedroom at Talliston | Great Dunmow, United Kingdom


Not only does this bedroom look like something straight out of the 1800s’ creepiest home, but there are also unexplained murmurs in the wall. Stay here if you dare to find out.

The Catacombs | Paris, France


There is no place creepier to rest your head than Paris’ famous catacombs — the final resting place for six million people. This underground cemetery is guaranteed to have ghosts galore. Bravely sleep with your head next to a network of skulls and bones and maybe you’ll make it to morning.

The Alfred Rosenheim Mansion | Los Angeles, Calif.


Built in 1908, this home, most well-known as the Murder House from the show “American Horror Story,” has a spooky Airbnb history. It was first listed in 2016 and after only a handful of guests stayed, it immediately dropped off the map. If it ever comes back, you’re sure to experience some haunting encounters.

Historic Civil War Farm House | Gettysburg, Pa.


Used as a Civil War field hospital immediately following the Battle of Gettysburg, it’s no surprise you’ll be joining the company of a few ghosts — but the owners assure they’re friendly.

Captain Grant’s | Preston, Conn.


Located near two cemeteries, this Airbnb is known for unexplainable happenings. Some avid ghost hunters stayed here and said it was a thrillingly spooky time. Orbs of light and feelings of being watched are only two of the things you’re likely to experience.

Medieval Tower in Tuscany | Seggiano, Italy


While this Airbnb listing doesn’t technically mention any ghosts, but given the fact the ancient building was built in the 1200s, there’s no doubt there are a few peasant ghosts wandering the halls.

Hackett Castle | Cashel, Ireland


Good luck sleeping in this 15th-century tower house with a dungeon near your room. Who knows what sort of monstrosities took place there and who may still be lurking nearby.

Elegantly Decayed Creole Mansion | New Orleans, La.


It’s no secret that New Orleans is a fairly haunted, spooky city, but this “elegantly decayed” mansion really takes the cake. Dating back to at least 1855, there are surely still some disgruntled slaves who have stuck around.

The Manor | Saint Paul, Minn.


Guarded by a Doberman named Scotch and complete with a spooky exterior, this home was named the “most mysterious house” in Saint Paul. Who knows what’s in store for you if you choose to say in this Airbnb.
