Itinerary
Rhode Island Holocaust Memorial Park
The Rhode Island Holocaust Memorial in Providence, dedicated in 2015, honors the six million Jews and countless other victims who perished during the Holocaust. While the memorial serves as a place of reflection, some visitors have reported eerie encounters, such as shadowy figures and faint whispers, believed by some to be the restless spirits of those who suffered.
8 minutes
Providence Athenaeum
The Providence Athenaeum, established in 1836, is one of America's oldest libraries, rich in literary history and known for its stunning architecture. Beyond its scholarly appeal, the library is steeped in eerie tales, with reports of ghostly sightings, particularly of poet Sarah Helen Whitman, and other unexplained phenomena that add to its mysterious charm.
8 minutes
Brown University (Pass By)
University Hall at Brown University, built in 1770, is steeped in history, having served as barracks and a hospital during the Revolutionary War. The building is also rumored to be haunted, with reports of ghostly apparitions, unexplained footsteps, and eerie phenomena, particularly involving the spirit of a British soldier.
N/A
The Edward Dexter House in Providence, Rhode Island, is a historic Federal-style home with a haunted reputation, featuring tales of ghostly apparitions, unexplained cold spots, and mysterious occurrences. The most famous legend involves a forlorn woman in period clothing, believed to be a lingering spirit connected to the house's past.
7 minutes
N/A
The Roger Williams Memorial in Providence, Rhode Island, is a historically significant site with a haunting reputation, particularly due to the eerie "Tree Root Incident," where Williams' remains were allegedly replaced by tree roots shaped like a human figure. Visitors often report unusual stillness, ghostly apparitions, and cold spots, adding a spooky layer to this revered landmark.
8 minutes
N/A
H.P. Lovecraft’s "The Shunned House" in Providence, RI, is a historically significant early 18th-century residence that gained infamy through Lovecraft's 1937 novella of the same name, which depicts it as a haunted dwelling filled with malevolent spirits. Although the house's true haunted reputation is intertwined with Lovecraft's fictional narrative, local legends of eerie noises and ghostly apparitions continue to captivate visitors and reinforce its mysterious allure.
