The charming town of Concord is the capital of New Hampshire and boasts unique local shops, hip breweries, and a rich history. But there is a darker side to this seemingly quaint New England town. These three ghost stories have haunted parts of Concord for centuries.

The Centennial Hotel and Granite Restaurant & Bar is a Victorian style building erected in the nineteenth century and later converted into a hotel.

Many who visit the hospital have claimed to hear shuffling footsteps and screams still coming from former patients' rooms. Others say the elevator sometimes runs by itself and books mysteriously drop off shelves. You may want to consider treatment at a different facility if you feel woozy during vacation.
