Casey Moore's Oyster House, Tempe, Ariz.

This Irish pub is known for serving up fresh seafood and New England clam chowder. The restaurant's current owner, Patty St. Vincent, claims that during her tenure, all four families that have occupied the house across the street from Casey Moore's have reported seeing a strange woman walking around the upstairs floor late at night. Once, a group of diners allegedly witnessed a piece of art shoot across the restaurant.

The Country House, Stony Brook, N.Y.

The quaint Country House Restaurant, which opened in 1710, is known for its charm (AOL City Guide even voted it the Most Romantic Restaurant on Long Island). According to local lore, one of the original owners, Annette Williamson, has haunted the restaurant for hundreds of years. The paranormal activity at the Country House is so well known that the accounts are included in a book called Ghosts of Long Island.

Stone's Public House, Ashland, Mass.

According to local legend, John Stone, the known curmudgeon who opened Stone's Public House in 1834, has haunted the restaurant since he passed away in 1858. Owners, employees, and patrons have reported strange happenings in the upstairs function room, such as lights flickering on their own, doors refusing to stay locked, and taps turning on by themselves.

The Captain's Anchorage, Big Bear Lake, Calif.
