Places To Visit During Ghost Hunting Tours Texas

By Henry Cole


Ghost stories are often talked about in hushed tones by many. For a select few, however, this topic is an interesting one and any opportunity to find out what the spiritual realm is all about is always welcome. If you fall in the latter category, you might not want to miss out on ghost hunting tours Texas.

There are lots of agencies that specialize in guided tours all over Texas. Claims of ghost sightings are not new to Texans, with many locals reporting seeing something in hotels, burial grounds and houses. A full day tour should certainly quell your interest and let you ascertain if the stories are indeed true.

One building that regularly gets talked about in town is the Prince Solms Inn. This property lies just by the Guadalupe River and has long been used to house visitors from outside the state. The vintage appeal that the interior of the building holds is something to admire, more so the expansive staircase that leads up to the furniture filled guest rooms.

A set of old pictures lie across the wall that lies beside the staircase. On many occasions, guests have reported seeing some of the figures in the images move as they climbed up the staircase, just like the photos in Harry Potter movies. A vintage piano that is still functional lies in the basement. One peculiar thing about the inn is that one gets the sense that he is being watched by an entity, whether when making merry at the bar with fellow revelers or when in the room.

The Blue Light Cemetery should also be high on your list. It was officially commissioned for use in the 1800s. However, it has been closed off to the public due to complaints about vandalism and alleged nighttime satanic rituals held within its grounds. A local fable is told of how Satanists once conjured a demon and set it upon the cemetery during one of their rituals. If you ever venture into this site, the locals will encourage you to seek divine protection beforehand.

The Faust Hotel is also sure to instill some fear in you. It has been in operation since the early 20th century. Its vintage architecture says a lot about how old it is. Most of the decorations that it originally came with are intact. There is always a supernatural touch to this building, with a host of people saying they felt an uncontrollable urge to go forward and explore after seeing it from the outside.

Nowadays, there is a grill and bar at the ground floor. Event organizers and wedding planners also hire its big hall regularly. Ghost sightings within the building are rife. The most common claim is that the sound of intense breathing from an invisible entity. Without a doubt, this is a good site to check out if you are a fan of spooky stories.

Finalize your tour with a trip to the Woodbine Hotel. A female spirit is believed to roam the interior of the hotel. There are reports of windows shattering, doors closing and opening at will, objects moving unexplainably and gut wrenching footsteps late at night.
