THE STORY
Reported Haunting
Smithfield Station has earned a reputation as one of coastal Virginia's haunted inns. Guests and employees have reported apparitions, phantom footsteps, mysterious voices, and unexplained activity throughout the waterfront property.
Smithfield Station is a restaurant frequented not only by the living. Witnesses say the apparition of a man can be seen sitting at the bar late at night when the place is closed. Some say he’s the spirit of a man who long ago left the bar and drowned in the river out back.
