A Swan Nest Inn

Seward, Alaska, United States

The Story

Seward’s A Swan Nest Inn has a modest haunting tradition involving footsteps in rooms and furniture apparently moved by an unseen prankster. A submitted account connects the inn to an older public building that was rescued from proposed demolition, but the paranormal reports do not identify a particular historical resident. The best-supported editorial approach is to keep the phenomena and place name, without inventing a tragedy to explain them.
