In this chilling episode of The Halloween Podcast, host Lyle Perez, a Tennessee realtor with a penchant for the paranormal, takes listeners to the spooky Granite State—New Hampshire. Known for its lush forests and historical towns, New Hampshire is also home to some of the most haunted locations in America. From grand hotels to eerie castles, Lyle explores ten sites that harbor ghostly secrets and restless spirits.
