Ballastone Inn
Savannah, GA 31401
This mansion-turned-inn was built in 1838 and is a popular spot for some mysterious happenings. Some reports say the ghost of Sarah Anderson, the original owner's wife, has appeared. She has been seen in the hallways of the second floor, in the elevators, the laundry room and near the front door. People say the building's long history may be what sparked the creepy activity. Before it was an inn, the private home was also a boarding house and a bordello. Since it is built directly over a former cemetery, it may not be too surprising that Sarah wants to stick around!

On the second night of our stay, my husband was woken up by a tugging of his sheets by his feet. He looked down and there was enough light in the room to see a little girl with her left arm holding the foot bed post, looking right at him.
It was at 1:37AM. He looked over to his right, and I was sound asleep. He looked back to his left, she was gone. Not startled or scared, he got up and looked around the room and we were the only ones there.
We have thoroughly enjoyed telling our honeymoon experience. The Ballastone Inn was comfortable and incredible and we would love to stay there again.
