Old Faithful Inn in Haunted Wyoming

The Old Faithful Inn was built in the early 1900s, from 1903-1904.Robert C Reamer was the architect and he insisted that the building reflect its surroundings. Even today the Old Faithful Inn remains one of the largest log buildings in all the world. In 1913-1914, the East Wing was added to accommodate the growing number of visitors to Yellowstone. The West Wing was added in 1927 for the same reasons. In 1959, the Hebgen Lake Earthquake damaged the roof and chimneys of the Inn. Guests were visiting the park at the time of the earthquake and many fled. Old Faithful Inn was designated a Historic Landmark in 1987. In 1988, wildfires threatened the Historic Inn. Luckily, the hard work of Firefighters saved the Inn and preserved its beauty and uniqueness for future generations. The Inn was evacuated during the fires. In 2004, they began renovations to upgrade the Old Faithful Inn to meet building codes. They have worked hard to keep the original design while also accommodating the safety precautions and luxuries of modern living. 

There are a few ghost stories that go along with the Old Faithful Inn. In addition to these ghost stories there are tales of unexplained occurrences. Room 2 the Inn has heard more than one creepy story of a ghostly woman standing at the foot of the bed. In the Crow’s Nest of Old Faithful Inn, a woman dressed in a white bridal gown has been seen. She makes no sound when she moves, and her head is tucked beneath her arms. The Headless bride is perhaps the creepiest ghost story of all. Tales of doors opening and closing with no one nearby are endless. There is also at least one fire safety inspector who witnessed a fire extinguisher turning upside down and right side up with no apparent help.
