Haunted Hotels in Lewisburg, West Virginia You Can Stay In

The General Lewis Inn

1236 Washington St E, Lewisburg, WV 24901

The original 1834 house was owned by John Withrow, a slave owner; his slave 'Uncle Reuben' was reportedly hanged on site in 1861 for conspiring a revolt that never occurred. The inn, expanded in 1928, is now believed to be haunted by three spirits: 'The Lady in White' specifically tied to room 208, 'Reuben' sometimes seen in the dining room (possibly where he was associated or hanged), and an unidentified crying 'Little Girl' heard in room 206. These entities contribute to the inn's reputation as a haunted location.
