The Story

A firsthand blog account by Judy Vars gives the Fairview Inn’s ghost tradition a particularly clear attribution. During an upstairs visit, she reports a sudden chill, hair standing up and camera batteries failing; she says a bartender identified the supposed presence as Frank. This is her interpretation of an experience, not an established cause of those events. The inn’s official site confirms its long-running hospitality role and describes rooms and a bar.
