These 7 Haunted Places In Texas Will Send Chills Down Your Spine – Part II
Amid all of the fun and festivities that go on here, Texas actually has plenty of creepy haunted hotels, warehouses, and hospitals lurking in the shadows, too. And I mean, come on, there’s plenty of places for the spooky and downright terrifying to hide here, but these places definitely top the list for the most bone-chilling sites in the state of Texas. Beware – these scary photos might haunt your dreams tonight, so proceed with caution. Hey, at least I warned you.
8) Emily Morgan Hotel – San Antonio, TX
Before it became a hotel, this building was an advanced medical arts facility, complete with a hospital, surgery floors, and a crematorium. That might explain some of the hauntings guests report, like the phone ringing in the middle of the night with no one on the other end, the TV and lights randomly coming on, and a woman dressed in white who disappears almost instantly. We sure do have a lot of haunted hotels here in Texas…
9) Bragg Road Ghost Lights – Saratoga, TX
Everybody in East Texas knows about this famous legend – it goes like this: on most nights, you can see a light flicker on and off in the distance when you drive down this old logging road. It’s said to be the lantern of a railroad worker searching for his head after being decapitated in a train accident. The best way to experience this is to ride in the bed of a truck with hot chocolate on a cool fall evening, a few weeks before Halloween. The activity usually picks up a lot around that time, plus everything is just way scarier around Halloween anyway.
10) Elder Street Artist Lofts – Houston, TX
This building used to be Jefferson Davis Hospital, which had a psychiatric ward, so you can imagine what kind of hauntings go on here. The site was built over the Houston City Cemetery as well, where over 3,000 Civil War and yellow fever victims are buried. Before the building became a loft, people reported shadowy figures, an unseen force watching them, and smells of sterilization solutions. One word: CREEPY.
11) Littlefield House – Austin, TX
Supposedly haunted by the mistress of the house, Alice Littlefield, the woman rarely left the house in life and was allegedly insane. People have claimed to have heard her playing the piano or aimlessly walking around upstairs.
12) Driskill Hotel – Austin, TX
This historic hotel in the heart of Austin may look pretty normal and sophisticated from the outside, but the inside harbors a few well-kept secrets. A portrait on the third floor of a little girl holding flowers is said to make guests feel as though their heels have been lifted into the air, and then their equilibrium is off for a few hours after that. Also, witnesses have reported seeing apparitions in chairs or windows, feeling strange sensations on their arms and faces, and hearing sounds of people upstairs when no one’s there.
13) The White Sanitarium – Wichita Falls, TX
What’s more spooky than an old insane asylum? Probably nothing. Ever. Rumor has it that strange experiments went on inside the four walls, and people claim to see ghosts playing cards in the building and lights going on and off mysteriously with no one inside. Some people have reported hearing screams of children coming from the building as well. Apparently someone bought the property and now lives there, and I must say, they’re a brave soul.
Most of these places seem harmless enough, but if you choose to visit these, proceed with caution and bring others with you if possible. What are your favorite haunted or creepy places in Texas?
