THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Monmouth Historic Inn is most closely associated with General John A. Quitman, who lived at the estate until his death in 1858. Guests and restoration workers have reported seeing him in military dress, feeling watched, and encountering his presence in bedrooms and around the grounds.
At this 1818 mansion, the ghost of General John A. Quitman is believed to reside. General Quitman bought the place in 1826, and it is believed he watched over the mansion’s restoration carefully. His apparition is still seen inspecting the inn, and he has been spotted dressed in full uniform by a guest in Room 30.
