Haunted Hotels in Wilmington, Ohio

General Denver Hotel

81 W Main St, Wilmington, OH 45177

The General Denver Hotel is well-known locally for its haunted reputation, centered around the spirit of a woman named 'Mary'. Legend says Mary either worked at the hotel or was jilted by a lover there, and her presence continues. She is often associated with Room 301 (or variations like 207/307). Guests report seeing her apparition, smelling unexplained perfume, hearing disembodied sighs or sobs, and experiencing lights turning on/off or items being moved. Some describe her as a melancholy but mostly harmless spirit, still connected to a past emotional event within the hotel.
