Top Ten Tuesday: Top Ten Haunted Buildings

10. East Corinth, Orange County, Vermont, just off Highway 25 near the New Hampshire border- Beetle Juice
A beautiful, newly renovated three story house in New England for sale!  Unfinished attic featuring a door to the afterlife.  Minor structural damage.

9. 540 Eastwood, Main Street, Roosevelt Island- Dark Water

8. Room 1408 of the Dolphin Hotel-1408

Looking for a romantic night in a luxury hotel?  Try the historical Dolphin Hotel.  Instead of a mini bar, we have a full bar!  Some fire and water damage.  Featured in Mike Enslin's book on haunted hotels, the Dolphin Hotel has been around for almost one hundred years and you'll want to stay for one hundred more.

7. High Hopes- Amityville Horror

Charming Dutch Colonial home on Amityville Island, New York.  Three stories.  With six bedrooms, there's plenty of room for the whole family!  Features a boathouse in the back.  Some insulation issues, no problem with cooling.  Recent price drop from $120,000 to $80,000.

6. Henry Treat Rogers Mansion- The Changeling
Are you looking for a new home to recover from the trauma of the death of your entire family?  Isolated, Victorian-era mansion located in Canada.  Not wheelchair accessible.

5. Eel Marsh House- Woman in Black
Fully furnished, huge mansion located on sprawling land for sale.  Quiet British village.  Very motivated Realtor.  Some rooms may require a key to enter.  Small graveyard located in the garden.  Some vandalism in an upstairs bedroom.

4. Partarríu Manor- The Orphanage
Large mansion in the beautiful Spanish countryside.  Features a hidden basement and a coal shed.  Located near the sea, the land surrounding Partarríu Manor features beaches, cliffs, and a forest.  Lots of room for the little ones to play.

3. Poltergeist
An almost brand-new, family home located in Cuesta Verde, California.  Garage, in-ground swimming pool, and lots of trees.  Totally not built on a desecrated cemetery.  TONS of closet space.

2. Los Hornillos Palace- The Others
A gorgeous pre-war mansion located near a forest.  Lots of windows allow in natural sunlight.  Comes with its own loyal, dedicated staff.

1.The Overlook Hotel - The Shining (The Kubrick version, not that mini-series.  I know Stephen King liked it, but he has done A LOT of drugs).
Get away from it all at the Overlook Hotel.  Isolated to the extreme, located in the Colorado Rockies.  Large, industrial style kitchen.  Lots of room for work or play.  Features a hedge maze.  Once you visit you'll never want to leave!
