What to expect
15 Oak St
Start at the perfectly-normal-looking post office, the former site of the Hotel Fullerton. Get acquainted with The Lady of the Dusk, a mysterious stranger dressed all in black who checked into the Hotel Fullerton and then disappeared. Her untimely end is still an unsolved mystery.
Harbor House Inn
Get a glimpse of the Harbor House Inn high atop a hill on Mckown Street. Otherworldly antics at the Harbor House Inn include a rocking chair that moves on its own and the presences of 19th Century owners Captain Mitch Reed and his wife Lucy. Room #5 is especially active.
Kaler's Restaurant
Step back in time at Kaler's Restaurant. Formerly Sherman’s Livery in 1908, Kaler’s Restaurant is a great place to eat. However, strange sounds often emanate from the floor above after all the shops have closed. Is someone still taking a carriage out for a midnight ride?
Admiral's Quarters Inn - est. 1830 - Boothbay Harbor Historic Inns & Hotels
Meet the boss at The Admiral’s Quarters. Previous owner George Duffy valued his privacy and wasn’t what you’d call a people person. What is now Room #10 was formerly George’s office, until he died there. However, there have been several strange occurrences over the years that indicate he never really left.
Tugboat Inn
Watch for the captain at the Tugboat Inn Restaurant. Built from the remains of a tugboat that formerly worked the New England coast, employees of this unique restaurant on occasion claim to see a ghostly captain at the wheel. The former tugboat captain’s haunted hi-jinx is the talk of staff.
Captain Sawyer's Bed and Breakfast
On some nights, long-dead Minnie Sawyer appears on the widow’s walk. Is she still searching for someone long-lost? Minnie and a few other spirits keep the proprietors on their toes. Paranormal manifestations vary from ghostly glimpses into the past to possible poltergeist activity.
Whale Park
Beautiful views of the ocean accompany colorful sailor's yarns including local sea serpent sightings at the pier of Boothbay Harbor.
Widely known as the most haunted place in Boothbay Harbor, the Opera House has hosted the famous and the dead. Once home to a fraternal organization called the Knights of Pythias, it is now the stomping ground of full body apparitions and scores of paranormal investigators. The storied venue is said to house many different spooks.
Thistle Inn Restaurant
Although he left a frightful first impression on the new innkeeper, the cantankerous spirit believed to be a man named Samuel Miller appears to have mellowed over the years. In fact, this surly sea captain has proven to be quite protective. He's believed to have saved the home from destruction on at least two occasions.
