What is the most haunted place in Seattle?

Pike Place Market is the one named most often. Axios called it "one of the most haunted spots in Seattle" in 2024, and ghost tours stop there.

Is there a haunted hotel in Seattle?

Yes. At Hotel Sorrento, the ghost of Alice B. Toklas is said to walk the fourth floor and to favor Room 408. At the Arctic Club Hotel, the elevator is said to stop by itself on the fifth floor, where Congressman Marion Zioncheck had his office when he died in 1936.

Yes, but only on a guided tour. Bill Speidel's Underground Tour and Beneath the Streets take visitors into the passages below Pioneer Square.

Can you go inside the old Butterworth mortuary?

Yes. It's Kells Irish Restaurant & Pub on Post Alley, open to the public, and ghost pub crawls stop inside.
