We’ve all heard our share of haunted cemetery stories, but those sound a little easy to craft. Cemeteries at night are already full of resting places, so it’s easy to feel a little creeped out when you visit one. However, this haunted saloon under this small town in Kansas is sure to scare a fright into people. That is — if you see anything worth being scared about!
Welcome to the historic Wolf Hotel, a spot in small-town Ellinwood that’s a little more creepy than you might initially assume.

Haunted spots in Kansas aren’t very common, so when you hear about ghosts in tunnels under a town, it makes sense to be a little excited. We hope to snag another tour ourselves soon!
