The Rhode Island Haunted Trail

Rhode Island is small enough that its hauntings feel like neighbors: a coastal fort with underground tunnels and mill villages where the Industrial Revolution left its machinery running long after the workers went home. Swamp trails on the edges of the state carry far older histories. Nearly fifty stops fit inside a state you can cross in under an hour. The Newport to Providence loop below strings together the state's most driveable weekend, a coastline-to-mill-town circuit built for two days, not two weeks.
