Several of the states most popular hotels and restaurants purportedly play host to the unknown. This information comes courtesy of Yelp, the crowd-sourced review website we’ve all turned to for recommendations of some sort at one point or another (Though we admit, we were intrigued to learn ghost-plagued places were among the things Yelp ranked.)
Yelp mined its data to determine which Lone Star State locations were most strongly associated with the paranormal, then ranked the spooky spots based on the total volume and ratings of reviews, among other factors. The final product -- a concise list of the 20 creepiest Texas sites perfect for the occult-curious. Haunted houses and ghost tours were not considered.
