Tour Preview: Where You’ll Go

Serra Sculpture Park

St. Louis’s eye-catching sculpture garden hasn't been the same since a tragic car four-car pile-up left its grass stained with blood. Smokey apparitions from this terrible incident haunt their final resting place to this day.

Union Station Hotel

Formerly the gateway to all of America, the Union Station Hotel is occupied by ghosts of those who came and went in and out of the old station that stood here before the hotel was built.

Stifel Theater

Since opening in 1934, the Peabody Opera House has been haunted by an apparition named Mary, who her husband murdered at the bar that used to sit next door.

The Hauntings of St. Louis

St. Louis was destined for darkness long before St. Louis was raised above the skyline of America’s heartland. Native burial grounds, towering 30 feet into the air, lined the land where the city was to be built. Ever since, an oppressive shadow of spectral energy has permeated the atmosphere in St. Louis.

 

As the city grew, so did its penchant for dangerous times and even heinous murders. Drinking dens began to dot the underground world of St. Louis during the era of Prohibition, welcoming crime and vapid violence into its bosom. Spirits forever trapped in eternal torment are locked in this eternal maze of misery, seeking an exit.

 

The innovative spirit of St. Louis has brought miracles to the world, but alas, it was not enough to stop the cold hand of death from reaching for warm hearts and minds. Thanks to the unforgiving permanence of the spirit world, the great tragedy that occurred at the St. Louis Gateway Arch in 1912 has yet to be forgotten.

The Most Haunted Places in St. Louis, MO

 

The line between worlds becomes thin at the most haunted places in St. Louis. Most famous is the site of the real-life events that inspired the demonic novel and film The Exorcist. Is it any wonder the city is so haunted, with such evil lurking in it? Another well-known haunted house in St. Louis is The Lehmann House, a B&B home to a pesty poltergeist who is very concerned with the renovations.

 

One of the most haunted places in St. Louis isn’t even a building. Zombie Road is considered one of the most haunted roads in America. Many leave it with physical reminders of the unexplained. Roads in Missouri may take you to unexplainable places, like Union, MO, home to a haunted mansion that has chased anyone who dares live in it.
