 | The Bonamargy friary dates back to the 15th century, with well-preserved altars, a church, and burial vault. Legend has it this friary is haunted by Julia McQuillen, a reclusive poet, who was murdered in the building.

2. The Tower of London - London, England
 | The Tower of London is said to be haunted by the many prisoners who met an untimely, and sometimes gruesome, death on the property. The most famous ghost being Anne Boleyn who was beheaded and has reportedly been seen wandering the palace grounds where she was executed. |
3. Bran Castle - Transylvania, Romania
 | Bran Castle is known by ghost hunters as the world’s most haunted castle. This fortress served as a military outpost for hundreds of years and saw lots of bloodshed. Many were imprisoned there, and likely faced horrific treatment, as medieval torture devices have been found there. This castle is long thought to have been the inspiration for Dracula’s castle in Bram Stoker's novel. |
4. Palace of Versailles - Versailles, France
 | Once home to King Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette, the Palace of Versailles has been rumored to be haunted by their ghosts. The two were held captive there until they were tried and executed for crimes against France. Visitors of the palace have reported sightings of the infamous couple throughout the halls and glass objects have been known to spontaneously break. |
5. Catacombs of Paris - Paris, France
 | As public health problems caused Parisian cemeteries to fill up, they began transferring bodies to the Catacombs. This eerie underground tourist attraction holds millions of Frenchmen bones so it’s not surprising that people have reported spooky sightings here. Legend has it that voices try to lure visitors deeper into the catacombs late at night. |
6. The Ancient Ram Inn - Gloucestershire, England
 | The Ancient Ram Inn is the oldest building in England’s Wotton-Under-Edge and has a long list of haunted legends. Not only is the property home to a 5,000 year old Pagan burial ground, but it was also once the home of a “witch” who was burned at the stake. Evidence of human sacrifice was found by a man who purchased the property in 1968. The man claims he has had many paranormal encounters and has even been attacked by these ghosts but he still resides in the home today. |
