Dunleith Historic Inn, Natchez
The Dunleith Historic Inn in Natchez, Mississippi, is considered a haunted location known for its eerie investigations and spooky events, like the "Toasts with Ghosts" events where guests explore the haunted halls. The historic mansion, built in the mid-1850s after the original "Routhland" burned down, is a pre-Civil War landmark with a rich and potentially spooky history, making it a popular spot for ghost enthusiasts. The property's history dates to the 1790s with a house called "Routhland," built by Job Routh. In 1855, a lightning strike caused the chimney to fail, leading to the house burning down. Charles Dahlgren, the husband of Job Routh's daughter, rebuilt on the site in 1856, and the house was later named "Dunleith" by Alfred Vidal Davis. The current mansion is now recognized for its haunted history, with the inn itself hosting guided ghost investigations and other paranormal events. The inn is known for its ghostly reputation, hosting "Toasts with Ghosts" events that combine spooky-themed cocktails, finger foods, and guided ghost investigations.
