217 E Main St, Grafton, IL 62037
The Ruebel Hotel, rebuilt in 1913 after a fire destroyed the 1879 original, is reputedly one of Illinois' most haunted. The primary spirit identified is that of a little girl named Abigail, frequently seen and sometimes heard in the upstairs hallway and near the stairs. Her presence inspired the name 'Abigail's Tap Room' in the hotel. Guests and staff have reported encountering Abigail, seeing orbs, and hearing inexplicable noises like furniture being moved in empty sections of the hotel late at night.
