THE STORY
Reported Haunting
The Inn at St. Peter's Village is renowned for its resident spirit, believed to be the ghost of a little girl named Emily. Guests and employees have reported seeing her apparition, hearing laughter and footsteps, and witnessing objects move without explanation.
Originally built in 1881 as the Excursion House, the site became the Inn at St. Peter’s Village in 2005. It is rumored to have long ago been a place where foxes were raised in the basement to supply the local huntsmen; the owner gives a nod to this bit of history in its Fox Den Bar. There are several spirits in residence here. Folks say a ghostly infant can be heard crying, and the apparition of a bent-over elderly man can be seen in the hallways, and sometimes even on the street out front. Also, the second floor is reportedly the spot where a woman once hanged herself, and her footsteps and creaking sounds can be heard around the area.
