The Provincial

Part of this hotel was once a Confederate hospital. Guests as well as staff have reported seeing Civil War soldiers and doctors come and go, and some have even seen pools of blood on floors or bedding come and go.

The Andrew Jackson Hotel

Tragedy struck this building in 1794. It was a boy’s boarding school at the time, and when fire broke out it claimed the lives of five boys. Since becoming a hotel, guests have reported hearing the sound of children when there were none present!

The Avenue Plaza Hotel & Pro Spa

The Ashley House, which is attached to this resort, was once a detention center for Civil War prisoners. Guests have reported seeing a ghostly woman roaming the parlor, and phantom footsteps have been heard coming from empty rooms. Doors that open and close on the own and unexplained electrical events have also been reported.

The Columns Hotel

According to legend, former owners of this stately hotel found it so beautiful, they refused to leave — even after their deaths! An ethereal ‘woman in white’ has been seem roaming the garden and ballroom, and a ghostly little girl has been spotted on the third floor.
