Bonus Locations: San Francisco

A few extra eerie corners to explore…

1. Curran Theatre (Theatre District)

A historic 1922 playhouse with velvet balconies and dim mezzanines. Staff and visitors report quiet footsteps, cold pockets of air, and a lingering presence believed to be a former ticket taker killed decades ago.

2. Fairmont San Francisco (Nob Hill)

This iconic hilltop hotel survived the 1906 earthquake and fire. Guests describe flickering lights, drifting perfume, and figures in period clothing gliding along the marble halls after dark.

3. The Palace Hotel (Market Street)

A grand, glass-ceilinged landmark where visitors sometimes notice shifting reflections, unexplained elevator movements, and the sense of someone watching quietly from the mezzanine.

4. William Westerfeld House (Alamo Square)

A towering Victorian with a tangled past of artists, communes, and occult rumors. Though privately owned, its looming exterior continues to draw stories of residual energy and late-night shadows at the windows.

5. Mare Island Naval Shipyard (Vallejo)

Once a bustling naval base, now a semi-abandoned sprawl of dry docks and rusting cranes. Visitors report echoing footsteps in empty warehouses and strange movement in the fog along the piers.

6. Point Reyes Lighthouse (Point Reyes National Seashore)

Wind-battered, fog-drenched, and perched above treacherous waters, this lighthouse is tied to shipwreck lore. Some visitors describe feeling watched on the long descent down the cliffside stairs.

7. Fort Point (Below the Golden Gate Bridge)

This Civil War–era brick fort feels unusually quiet beneath the constant rush of the bridge overhead. People walking the corridors report sudden chills and the sense of someone trailing just behind them.

8. Queen Anne Steps (Pacific Heights)

A steep staircase between ornate Victorian homes. Locals say the wind carries faint whispers on foggy evenings, and some walkers feel an inexplicable heaviness halfway down the steps.

9. San Francisco Art Institute Tower (Russian Hill)

The old bell tower has long been associated with eerie tales from students and night watch staff — phantom footsteps, shifting shadows, and a feeling of being observed during late studio hours.

10. China Beach (Seacliff)

A sheltered cove with quiet, echoing cliffs. After sunset, beachgoers sometimes report isolated cold spots and the sense of movement along the rocks, even when the shoreline appears empty.

Enjoy your eerie escape!

I hope these extra stops help you experience even more haunted corners and historic shadows. Whether you visit one or all of them, may they add an extra layer of mystery to your journey.
