That's because they stay up all night and never want to sleep.

I live in the town depicted in the recent movie "A haunting in Connecticut". I can say that the Wallaces (the ghost buster couple) made a whole bunch of money on basically nothing at all. The "house" is a couple of blocks from me and there was so much hype at the time the investigation was going on that it rated a few newspaper articles but nothing was really found. The house remains occupied and there are no "strange" occurrences going on today. Personally, I don't think there ever was.

We attended Paranormal Night this past evening at the 1875 Inn in Tilton. The ghost stories and the tour of some of the guest rooms was fascinating. The dinner ( I had the pastry stuffed chicken) was wonderful! A girl named Laura died there in a fire and many claim she still comes around. Many various ghostly accounts have been described by guests. We may try to stay in Laura's room at a future date and see what happens! I hear the Weirs Times is presently writing an article about the inn.

Isn't the Mount Washington hotel supposed to be haunted?

The lake's Region Paranormal group has gone to the Mt. Washington Hotel to see if anything has been going on. My husband and I have decided to rent Laura's room at the 1875 Inn in Tilton on Halloween night. Halloween is not only my husband's birthday, but it is also our wedding anniversary. We will let you know if anything unusual occurs. We are looking forward to a nice dinner and a great Sunday brunch.

Yes, I've experienced things at the King's Grant, as well. Many years ago, I was doing a walk through when the place was on the market for sale.

A group of us walked through the old club, commenting on how nice the booths were, considering the time it had been closed, etc. The front of house was still in fairly good condition, despite needing a bit of cleaning up. We went into the kitchen, which was large - but it had stock pots of stuff still on the counters with souring food, like someone left in a hurry. We quickly exited the way we came in and - only moments after having walked through the very same room - saw all the tables neatly set for service!

There are serveral hidden passages and strange rooms there, which only added to the mystery of what we had just experienced.

Pineedles, is that the house that the new tenants discovered was a funeral parlor? I believe I own that episode on DVD. The Wallaces were the demonologists that went in to investigate? Or the tenants that moved in? The depicted story was truly terrifying. My husband thought it was bogus too.

There never is anything found. When someone gets an undisputed picture then I'll believe. Same with Bigfoot, Aliens and the Loch Ness Monster.

Yes, it was a funeral parlor at one time but as with many FPs, once you take the sign down, it just looks like an ordinary house. I'm sure the producers of the movie made it as scary as possible.

I haven't seen the film, but rather than be scared I am guessing I would see too many exaggerations and not alllow myself to enjoy it for what it is, a scary movie.
