Former Weaversville Inn and Jessica’s Tea Room

History & local legend

Lauren, a server at the former Weaversville Inn, stayed in a furnished upstairs room for three weeks. In a recorded interview during a 2013 investigation, she recalled hearing a woman in high heels pass her bed on the second night. The footsteps sounded as though they were striking hardwood, although her room was carpeted. Afterward, she slept with the television on.

The investigating team had a different experience downstairs. Three members had moved beyond a cellar doorway into a larger basement room when a loud bang came from the door behind them, startling all of them.

The Ghost Encounters hosts revisited those events in an October 2021 episode, playing Lauren’s interview and discussing their own reaction in the basement.
