13. Lighthouse Inn and Resort
New London, Conn.The Lighthouse Inn is not short on tales of dramatic spirits. In the 1950s, a bride descending the grand main staircase reportedly tripped and fell, breaking her neck. Almost 60 years later, her spirit is rumored to pace up and down the stairs, still practicing her walk.
This disappointed bride also holds court in the honeymoon suite (right). Some guests report that unseen hands turn the television and lights on and off, and shake the curtains. However, not all guests raise her ire. Staff members said some honeymooners awake to find the ghost bride has pulled up the covers and neatened the bed clothes.
