Looking for a spooky getaway in October? A New York hotel was just named the best haunted hotel in America, according to a report.
The Fainting Goat Island Inn, in the southern town of Nichols, is ranked number one on USA Today’s list of haunted hotels in the country. It is the second consecutive year that the hotel obtains that title.
The five-room inn built in 1850 is located between Elmira and Binghamton, and is part of the New York Historic Haunted Trail. Guests reportedly encountered several different ghosts walking the halls and more spooky events, such as two women sitting having tea in the fainting room, according to USA Today.
It’s not the only haunted destination in the state. At number three on the list was the Saranac Hotel, in Saranac Lake. The hotel in the Adirondacks near Lake Placid was built during the 1920s, according to its website, and is part of Historic Hotels of America, an official program of the National Trust for Historic Preservation.
A variety of sightings have also been reported there, including a girl on the fourth floor, singing on the sixth floor and scratching sounds on the third floor, USA Today wrote.
It was built on the grounds of a former high school, and there have been reports among locals that the ghost of the school’s superintendent is still seen on the property.
