Moon River Brewing Company may be officially closed now, but what lurks behind the doors and walls of this old building in Savannah, Georgia, is still walking among the living from beyond the grave.
The building opened in 1821 as a hotel catering to the rich and famous, who flocked here to experience the beautiful city. Although the hotel may have closed in 1864, it was used as a hospital on multiple occasions and reportedly housed victims of yellow fever.
In 1832, a doctor by the name of Dr. Philip Minus shot a drunk man in this building when it was a hotel that had a reputation in the community for insulting people.
No wonder this historic building is one of the most haunted in America, with reports indicating that the basement and top floor are the areas where the most activity occurs.
The spirits are known not to be friendly, as they have reportedly thrown beer bottles and tormented the former staff. Another story says construction workers were working on the building when they became so frightened after the foreman’s wife was pushed down the stairs. They ran from the property, leaving their tools behind.
Moon River Brewing Company has appeared on several television shows, including Ghost Adventures, in the past.
The building remains a permanent part of Georgia’s haunted history.
