What may look like a rather ordinary residence from the outside, is actually a hotel plagued with supernatural occurrences. This guesthouse is located in historic Humbird, Wisconsin and was once the focus of a local ghost hunting investigation after multiple reports from owners and guests of paranormal activities. So what lurks behind that unassuming façade? Click or scroll on to take a tour if you dare, plus discover more haunted houses for sale right now.

The Humbird Hotel Bar & Grill dates back to 1869, and once inside, the atmospheric interiors take hold with chandeliers providing low lighting across numerous antique framed portraits and dark painted walls. The property hosts a bar, six hotel rooms and its own residential quarters spanning 1,800 square feet.

For just $279,900 (£243k), the 5,500 square foot hotel could be all yours… and the ghosts, that is. Bahnub of Bahnub Realty, LLC spoke to Realtor about an experience the current bar owners had. “They were sitting in the bar and there was this hanging light and it started to move when they were sitting below it. One person got up and stopped it from moving and said he could feel the force of somebody pulling it, so he sat down and it just continued to spin.” Spooky...

But that’s not all. The Supernatural Investigators of Minnesota have rather bravely visited the hotel on numerous occasions with tracking equipment and recorded some ghostly goings on. According to Realtor, a video from last year shows evidence of spirits roaming the halls including a nurse carrying a tray which could be linked to smallpox patients who died in the building.

In another room, multiple guests have reported a male spirit that watches over people while "child entities" have been seen in other rooms. The so-called "pink room" apparently hosts more than just rose-coloured décor, but also an "unidentified creature that crawls down the walls". Not sure we’re very keen on staying in that room…

The main floor is currently being used as a bar and restaurant, while the hotel rooms and living quarters reside on the top floors. There is no mention of the bar and restaurant being haunted, but the sale will come complete with the liquor license, bar items, furnishings and fixtures. We'd need a stiff drink after staying here.

If that doesn't put you off, the property does come in need of repairs as the current owners were in the process of renovations but were unfortunately unable to complete the project. Still on the market at $279,900 (£243k) we're curious to see who snaps it up and whether they can handle their uninvited guests...

The spooky Minnesota hotel isn’t the only paranormal property on the market. These haunted homes from across the world are also up for grabs right now and they're packed full of unexpected goings-on, creepy interiors and things that go bump in the night​. Are you brave enough to take one of them on?

How about this next poltergeist-populated property, in the heart of Westchester County, New York? Built in 1925, the so-called "elegant, warm and inviting" abode as per the listing is perhaps anything but once you step inside the porch of Enslin House…

According to Realtor, the current owner, an "intuitive alchemist" named Michele Bell claims that her four-bedroom residence plays host to no less than nine ghosts and a gangster called John T. “Legs” Diamond. Making a feature of its paranormal entities, there's a well-placed ‘Boo’ sign that sits at the foot of the decorative wallpapered staircase. Welcome!

Currently on the market for $413,111 (£358.8k), the New York abode has been in Michele’s family for six generations and was once the home of a supper club that the gangster ghost, “Legs” was a member of. With ornate tin ceilings, Florentine doors and hardwood floors, the house maintains many of its original features.

The four-bedroom home also has four original, custom design iron fireplaces, two galley kitchens and a brand new roof as per the listing. According to Realtor, much of the paranormal goings-on occur in the basement, so you might want to keep that locked should you decide to take on the supernatural pad.

The well-maintained family home is found in a commercial zone area, meaning potential new owners could transform the historic house into a restaurant, coffee house or perhaps a ghost-themed cafe. The possibilities (and afterlife) are endless...

This four-bedroom property in Canton, Mississippi, looks just like any other luxury home with its sweeping staircases and grand façade. But if you delve a little deeper, you'll discover a seriously spooky history. 

The most recent owners have reported paranormal activity occurring in the spooky doctor's house and insist they saw the ghost of Susan Priestley in the bedroom where she died. Others in the neighbourhood are said to have seen her figure standing at the windows. 

Owners have also witnessed a piano playing on its own and candles falling out of their holders. It's been said that Susan Priestley got so attached to the home after her husband died that she just didn't want to leave.

The haunted house is currently up for sale for $938,000 (£814.8k) with Keller Williams and comes with plenty of plus points for those brave enough to see past the home's history. Spanning 5,252 square feet, the spine-chilling residence comes complete with four bathrooms, an attractive library, a formal dining room, a music room, a parlour, an office, a sleeping porch and a swimming pool, all said to be in peak condition.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Kate Shepard House in Mobile, Alabama dates back to 1897. The remarkable Queen Anne home features exquisite yellow and green paintwork, stained glass, ornate pediments and turrets across its façade, but it's the home's eerie history that's intriguing prospective buyers. Now on the market for $995,000 (£864k) with Keller Williams, this isn't quite the idyllic dollhouse it appears...

Once a schoolhouse back in the 20th century, it's been run as a successful B&B for more than 18 years, with visitors travelling from far and wide to spend a weekend in the historic home. Encompassing 4,200 square feet, along with six bedrooms and five bathrooms, there's plenty of space to accommodate guests, though not all are invited...

Seemingly little has changed over the years in this regal living room, with its sash windows and carved wooden hearth surround. The home's current resident, Wendy James, who has owned the property for 18 years, told local TV station WKRG News 5 that she and her husband share the house with a spectral visitor. Over the years, several guests have asked about the little girl running around the hallways, though no such child lives in the house.

Theories abound as to who the little girl might be. Kate Shepard, the home's namesake, ran a school from the house for some 30 or 40 years until her passing in 1952, so perhaps the ghost could be a former student. Guests staying in Kate's sister Isabel's room have also reported seeing the apparitions – Isabel passed away in the house but maybe she wasn't quite ready to leave. Whatever the case, these ghostly visitors are said to be benevolent guests so there's not much cause for concern.

The beautifully preserved home is just as impeccable outside, with its expansive porches and a third of an acre of landscaped grounds. However, a further secret was recently uncovered in the home's eaves – the discovery of the McRae Papers in the attic, a collection of rare Civil War documents, drew international attention and even led to a feature on HGTV's If Walls Could Talk. How's that for a home with history?

Built in 1858 for wealthy cotton trader, Edward Kenworthy-Carlisle, this four-bedroom manse is described as one of the "best-preserved examples of Italian Villa-style architecture", according to the listing. On the market for $1.1 million (£955k), this attractive abode could be yours, but be warned that it does come with a spooky story or two...

Added as a National Historic Landmark in 2004, the imposing abode features original cross halls with three separate stairways, three wide halls and two tower rooms on the third and fourth floors. The property can also be found in Kathryn Tucker Windham’s 1969 children’s book of ghost stories, Thirteen Alabama Ghosts and Jeffery.

The eight-bedroom, four-bathroom manse spans 7,959 square foot of living space, adorned in elaborate décor throughout. Rich textures and colours proliferate each room, lit via chandeliers, fireplaces and original arched windows.

One story reports how the owner’s daughter, Anne Carlisle grew up in the hall and her favourite place was the four-storey square tower. In love with a neighbouring soldier and upon hearing he had died at battle in the Civil War, she reportedly threw herself from the stairwell to the hall three floors below. Tragically, by the time her father arrived at her side, she was dead. Some say her cries can still be heard in the tower.

But it's not all spooky tales, the unique, historic residence is also a functioning Arabian horse farm according to the listing, with 19 acres of land to roam. For prospective owners who are brave enough to live with a mourning ghoul in one tower, Kenworthy Hall (aka Carlisle-Martin House) is still for sale with Keller Williams Realty Vestavia.

Set on 34 acres of land, Earlshall Castle in the Fife region of Scotland is an exceptional historic property. It’s believed to have taken its name from the site of a hunting lodge, which was once owned by the ancient Earls of Fife, relatives of Robert the Bruce, King of Scotland. 

The fairytale castle is reportedly haunted by Sir William Bruce, or one of his descendants, Andrew Bruce. A phantom figure is frequently seen in the bedroom formerly used by Andrew Bruce and heavy footsteps are often heard on the staircase. However, that's not the only ghostly figure that's been seen floating about. 

Despite its grim history, Earlshall Castle is undoubtedly one of the UK's most spectacular private homes. The 8,398-square-foot manor has no end of space for a large family to stretch out, including eight grand reception rooms, three cottages and even its own woodland and magnificent walled garden.

If you think you can handle the occasional ghost sighting, you could be the proud owner of one of the best-kept 16th-century houses in Scotland – wooden beams, original fireplaces, timber wainscotting and dramatic topiary gardens included! Earlshall Castle is currently available with Savills at a spooky $9.2 million (£8m).
