Haunted Inn

Is Concord’s Colonial Inn haunted? Many who think so come in search of a paranormal experience.

The first reported ghost sighting was in 1966 when honeymooners M.P. and Judith Fellenz of Highland Falls, New York, checked into Room 24 on the second floor of the Main Inn. After their stay Mrs. Fellenz wrote to the innkeeper and said: I was awakened in the middle of the night by a presence in the room—a feeling that some unknown being was in the midst. As I opened my eyes, I saw a grayish figure at the side of my bed about four feet away. It was not a distinct person, but a shadowy mass in the shape of a standing figure. It remained still for a moment, then slowly floated to the foot of the bed in front of the fireplace. After pausing a few seconds, the apparition slowly melted away. It was a terrifying experience. I was so frightened I could not scream. I was frozen to the spot.

Other ghostly appearances have been reported in the Inn, including a woman writing at a guestroom desk, a little girl running in the hallway near room 24, a Redcoat soldier sitting at the bar, and an older woman and tall slim man holding a top hat in the sitting room. Ghost experts have investigated the Inn over the years and Historical Hotels of America and hit show “Ghost Hunters” have covered our paranormal experiences.
