11 Haunted Hotels Where You Can Rest in Peace

"Borgvattnet Vicarage (Borgvattnet spökprästgård in Swedish), is known as one of Sweden’s most haunted locations, and its reputation even attracted a priest devoted to clearing out the famed spirits. Built in 1876, the humble house for holy men started getting its first reported hauntings in 1927 when the resident vicar reported strange happenings including his laundry being torn from the line. Tales of supernatural events continued in the ensuing decades with almost every new vicar or their family or guests claiming to experience ghostly antics. Things have moved, screams have been heard, shadow people have been seen, and the old rocking chair keeps on rocking. The legends surrounding the origins of the haunting tell of abused maids and even of babies buried in the backyard although it is now also said that the old vicars themselves haunt the house.  In the early 1980’s the renowned site caught the attentions of an outsider priest named Tore Forslund, the ghostpriest. This devoted enemy of the occult came to the town promising to rid it of the apparitions that the citizens had already begun capitalizing on. Unfortunately his exorcism’s seem to have met with little to no success and he left the area within a year.   Today the vicarage is run as a small bed and breakfast for those curious enough to stay the night, with the option to rent the whole house. Anyone who makes it through the night will receive a diploma to mark their honor." - ATLAS_OBSCURA
