THE STORY

Reported Haunting

Longfellow's Wayside Inn is traditionally associated with the spirit of Jerusha Howe. Room 9 is particularly tied to stories of a female presence, unexplained sounds and the scent of perfume.

The historic Wayside Inn traces its innkeeping tradition to 1716. Its best-known ghost story centers on Jerusha Howe, a member of the innkeeping family who died unmarried in 1842.
