Haunted Hotels in Geneva, New York You Can Stay In

Belhurst Castle

4069 W Lake Rd, Geneva, NY 14456

Belhurst Castle boasts a colorful past involving love affairs and even death. Its most famous spirit is Isabella, an opera singer said to have perished in a collapsed underground tunnel while eloping. Dressed in white, she reportedly walks the shores grieving her lost lover. Staff have witnessed paranormal activity such as showers turning on and off independently, objects flying through the air in the bar, and tablecloths knotted to chandeliers. Guests frequently report hearing soft lullabies, children's laughter or screams (especially reported by expectant mothers), and sounds of furniture being moved in rooms above, harking back to its time as a speakeasy and casino. The ghost of a former caretaker, Dick O'Brien, has also been reportedly seen.
