Most Haunted House In New Jersey

So many of us love to hear about haunted houses, but the enthusiasm for the stories fades away a little as you get closer and closer to home.

The stories of ghost boys and spirits rocking in chairs and the eyewitness accounts are nothing short of bone chilling. And knowing this building sits in Middletown certainly doesn't make falling asleep in Monmouth County any easier.

The building was put on the National Register of Historic Places in the mid 70's, just before it became a museum.

The reports of hauntings from visitors were relatively persistent, and at one point, officials decided to close it to the public, which of course only fueled the rumors that something supernatural was going on in there.
