Did You Know That New Hampshire’s Seacoast Has 3 Wicked Haunted Places Within 20 Miles of Each Other?

Ghost stories are as compelling today as they were when we were little kids underneath our blankets with flashlights.  There is something about spooky spirits around us that grab our attention.  The New Hampshire Seacoast has three wicked haunted buildings, all within 20 miles of each other.

There's a Ghost Cat at The James House in Hampton

Built in the 1700s, this is known as the most haunted house on the Seacoast.  A ghost cat roams the hallways, and in the attic, it is said that there are ghosts of children playing.   People also report doors slamming, cold spots and unexplained sounds throughout the house, according to the Horror Roadsides Show YouTube.  

Three Chimneys Inn in Durham

There is definitely a ghost at the Three Chimneys Inn, and her name is Hannah.  She was the daughter of the innkeeper, and was said to have drowned in they Oyster River just behind the Iin, according to frightfind.com.  It's a beautiful property, with many people getting married there or celebrating special occasions.  Hannah wants to be seen, so if you go, you will likely hear something weird or get glimpses of her.  She likes to show off the beauty of the property.

A tragic story from Island Path Road in Hampton

This one hits home.  Not only because I live here, but because the haunting may be from a woman who was persecuted in her human form for the majority of her life.  Eunice "Goody" Cole was accused of witchcraft, and was hated for it by those around her.  After her death of natural causes in prison, she was buried with a stake through her heart.  She was the only women convicted of witchcraft here in New Hampshire.

Island Path Road is said to have sightings of the old woman.

Bonus: The Rockingham Building in Portsmouth,

There was just a news report from WMUR a few months ago about an apparent spirit "flying by" the camera of the Rockingham Building in Portsmouth, New Hampshire.  If you watch the video, you might miss it, so keep your eyes open.  So many buildings here on the Seacoast of New Hampshire have energy, so I wouldn't doubt that this one has spirits too.
