The houses will be homes which are now gone, existing, private, museums, country clubs, schools, religious institutions, hotels, B&Bs and other places where one might not want to be alone in the dark of night.
Haunted houses depicted in books, movies and television shows with recommendations will be listed as well.

Whether there are real haunted mansions and ghosts or just buildings that give people the creeps, this is the time of year that they are hallowed. So in the spirit of Halloween, the mansions of famous murders, suicides, unhappy romances, broken hearts, financial ruin, vanity and jilted maidens will follow for the next 31 days. Hope I don't run out! For all 31 haunted houses click HERE.

The Carson Mansion at Eureka, California
The Carson mansion is not considered to be haunted but it or stylistic versions of it are often used on book covers and in illustrations, comics, tv shows and films, where a scary, creepy, looming, thunderstruck Victorian mansion is needed.
Some might remember it from, Tales from the Crypt.
The house fortunately is still existing and functions as the private Ingomar Club. Kept in pristine condition and with beautifully authentic interiors, it is a must see, if only from the street, when on the west coast.
