West Virginia Creating Trail of Haunted Sights to See

West Virginia tourism officials are creating a trail that will highlight the state’s haunted history.

The state Division of Tourism is taking suggestions for places to include on its list of paranormal attractions, events and destinations.

The inventory could highlight legends like Mothman or the Greenbrier Ghost, and include places like the Lake Shawnee Amusement Park or the Trans-Allegheny Lunatic Asylum.

To be considered for the trail, locations must be open or accessible to the public. It also must be promoted as being haunted by the property owners or, if on public land, by local officials.
