Sarah went to Cincinnati, Ohio last week and she’s here to tell the tale! When visiting a new city, we always recommend partaking in the local ghost tour: these are the stories Sarah learned on her Cincin(nasty) Ghost Tour.
Washington Park – it must be a running theme that every city that has a graveyard/potter’s field HAS to name that area “Washington Park”. The one in Cincinnati has a vast history, starting as a potter’s field, then an orphanage, then a local park with a swimming pool, then they wanted to put in a below ground garage so the bodies buried there had to be moved and…. well, you get the picture. This now gentrified (and albeit very cute) park gets quite scary at night. With voices being heard, footsteps following you when your alone, and a dark entity that has been known to chase people; Washington Park is not just for the living to enjoy.
Bonus points for Cincinnati: there is a bar called Ghost Baby. It’s located 5 floors underground in the cellar of the building. It’s damp, dark (underground remember?) and has an overall eerie strange feeling. Legend says that when the owners first re-opened the cellar where the bar is now located they heard the faint sound of a baby crying from within the dark. Maybe by naming the bar after the ghost it put it to rest? Go check out Cincinnati and see for yourself!

Big Thanks to Cincinnati Ghost Tours for the lovely evening (and for running tours 7-days of the week!) If you find yourself in Cincinnati check them out: https://usghostadventures.com/cincinnati/
