State guide · 104 documented locations

Haunted Minnesota

Minnesota has 104 documented haunted locations in the HauntBound index. 97 are rated family-friendly, 29 take bookings, and 6 ghost-tour operators work the state.

Minnesota's haunted map runs from the Twin Cities' downtown towers and saloons out to lake country and the North Shore. Minneapolis and St. Paul carry the state's gangster-era and music-history hauntings in landmark buildings that still do business every day, while smaller river towns and college campuses hold onto quieter, harder-to-verify legends passed down for generations. More than a hundred documented locations spread across that range. The featured loop threads a curated handful of them into a single weekend drive, built for travelers who want the highlights without doing all the research themselves.

Best season. September and October carry this route at its best: fall color along the Mississippi bluffs from Red Wing to Winona, and Stillwater's ghost walk runs weekends from May through Halloween for anyone extending the overnight leg after dark. Two scheduling notes: Plummer House offers guided interior tours only in summer, with the grounds open year-round, and Mantorville's Marigold Days, the weekend after Labor Day, fills the historic district's parking.
