It happens every year — the parade of haunted hotels all across America. But for some hotels, the haunting isn’t just for Halloween. It’s all year long.

So if you’re looking for a truly spooky experience, you might want to stay a night at the Stanley Hotel in Estes Park, Colorado. Remember The Shining with Jack Nicholson? No more needs to be said. Ask for room 217.

In Eureka Springs, Arkansas, there’s the Crescent Hotel. It dates back to 1886 and boasts hundreds of paranormal experiences.

The most requested room and purportedly the most haunted is 218.

And in Savannah, Georgia, look for The Marshall House — a former Civil War hospital. And apparently, a lot of the patients from that era have stuck around.
