Of course, an ancient and neglected cemetery is almost guaranteed to have a ghost or two. One of the most famous haunted cemeteries in America is Bachelor's Grove Cemetery , near Chicago, Illinois. However, a chained and locked gate is a good hint that you're trespassing if you attempt to enter. Use common sense when selecting a place to visit, especially at night. Older schools and theaters are also prime locations for encountering ghosts.
Most colleges have at least one ghost on campus.
Sometimes, hotels attract the ghosts of their former guests, such as Marilyn Monroe and Montgomery Clift, who haunt the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel . Many websites list local ghosts. You can learn even more by visiting your public library. There should be an entire section of ghost books, including one of my favorite books, Haunted Places - The National Directory, by Dennis William Hauck. The library's reference desk can be helpful.
