Morning Glory Bed and Breakfast, Salem, Massachusetts, USA

Salem is famous for its infamous witch trials of the late 17th century. A group of young girls accused certain residents of the village of having "bewitched" them. By the time the horror had ended, fourteen women and five men had been hanged; one of the accused, an elderly man named Giles Corey, had been pressed to death by rocks in an attempt to force a confession from him. Corey's only words were: "More weight."

The Morning Glory has two claims to fame - it is located in the notorious city of Salem, and it is haunted. A medium who stayed there claimed that the premises are haunted by the ghost of a teenage girl.
