Bobby Mackey’s Music World - A tavern located in Wilder, Kentucky. The nightclub sits on the site of a former slaughterhouse, with only a sealed up well remaining of the original building. A woman was murdered and decapitated by her boyfriend and his friend, authorities later finding her head in the well that was used to drain blood from the slaughtered animals. Author Douglas Hensley wrote a book entitled 'Hell's Gate' about the hauntings at the nightclub, and has been a part of many of the investigations. Strange activity continues to occur at the nightclub and several individuals (including Mackey’s wife) have been physically assaulted by spirits. The nightclub remains one of the strangest haunted sites in the Midwest and one that has proven to be a major attraction for ghost hunters and enthusiasts alike.

Northern State Hospital - Near Seattle, in Sedro-Woolly, Washington lies what was the Northern State Hospital, a psychiatric facility which housed mildly to criminally insane patients. It was one of the only facilities of its kind to operate both as a farm, and an insane asylum, often employing some of the patients to do various chores and the like. It opened in 1910 and closed for good in 1976. There is reported to be approximately 1500 unclaimed souls buried there, many in unmarked graves, and an additional 200 unclaimed cremated remains were found, when the present owner took possession of the property. Paranormal reports from the site include; the sensation of being scratched, or pulled, extremely tall shadow people, or dark ghostly figures, an apparition of a nurse, frequent crying and screaming, tapping, and threatening voices are all reported from within the structures. The owner of the property recently contacted TAPS trying to have the haunting disproved, due to the constant stream of sight-seers and novice ghost hunters, trespassing and in some cases, destroying his property. TAPS came up with conclusive video proof that Northern State Hospital is indeed haunted. The owner was concerned, and warns that anyone caught breaking in will be arrested immediately.
The Stanley Hotel - Perched up high in the great Rocky Mountains, is the small community of Estes Park, Colorado. Estes Park is home to the legendary Stanley Hotel. The Stanley is one of the most haunted hotels in The United States, and one of the most well-known. Its notoriety comes, in part, to being the hotel in which Stephen King stayed at length, while writing his horror masterpiece The Shining. And in fact, the hotel in the book was portrayed keeping the Stanley Hotel in mind. Stephen King himself is even said to have seen the ghost of a little girl here. Other reports include a haunted servants’ quarters, children are heard when no children are staying, and even reports of Mr. and Mrs. Stanley themselves, with Mrs. Stanley returning to play her own piano. It seems as though the Stanley Hotel has embraced its haunted reputation, and runs tours in the evening hours.
