Lemp Mansion, St. Louis (© by Matt Hucke)
Gerade in den USA gibt es zahlreiche sogenannte Spukorte. Im Gegensatz zu vielen bekannten Spukorten in Deutschland ist deren paranormale Aktivität jedoch in der Regel bestens anhand von Augenzeugenberichten, Fotos, EVPs, Videos o.ä. dokumentiert.
Dies liegt nicht zuletzt daran, dass Ghost Hunting sowie Paranormale Forschung und Untersuchungen in den USA wesentlich populärer sind als in Deutschland.
Im Folgenden findet sich ein umfassender Überblick über die bekanntesten Spukorte der USA – nach Bundesstaaten sortiert.
Geisterportal wird nach und nach zu jedem dieser Spukorte eine eigene Seite mit sämtlichen Informationen über die Geschichte des Ortes, die Geister und vieles mehr erstellen.
