For property owners

Become the place
paranormal travelers stay.

Your property doesn’t have to be haunted. Welcome travelers visiting investigations, historic sites, haunted destinations and events — or offer a stay with a story of its own.

The short version

Your place doesn’t have to be haunted.

People travel for this. An overnight investigation, a ghost tour, a historic site, a paranormal convention — every one of them means somebody needs a bed the night before and the night after. Most of those travelers are not looking to investigate where they sleep. They are looking for somewhere good, nearby, run by someone who understands why they came.

Three ways a property fits

Most properties are one of these. None of them is the default, and none rules out the others.

Haunted stay

The property is the destination

A stay with documented history, reported activity, or a story of its own. Guests come for the building as much as the bed.

Investigation stay

Guests may investigate, under your rules

Some properties let overnight guests investigate. When, where and how is yours to decide — and it is entirely optional.

Nearby stay

A bed near somewhere worth traveling to

Close to a ghost hunt, a historic site, a festival or a convention. No history required, no investigation, nothing unusual asked of you.

A stay is not automatically a ghost hunt.

If guests may investigate on your property, you decide when, where and under what rules. If they may not, your stay simply serves travelers visiting paranormal destinations nearby. Listing here gives nobody permission to do anything you have not allowed.

Your property, your terms

You set the rules.

HauntStay lists your property. It does not overrule how you run it.

How many people stay
Occupancy is yours to set, the same as any listing.
Whether visitors are allowed
Day guests, extra bodies, groups — your call.
Whether anyone investigates
Permitted, restricted to certain rooms, or not at all.
Quiet hours and boundaries
Which parts of the property are open, and when.
Your house rules
Written by you, shown to guests before they book.

Why here

Reach travelers already planning the unusual.

Someone books an overnight investigation two states away. Then they need somewhere to sleep. On a general travel site your property is one of four hundred; here it sits beside the thing they are actually traveling for.

That is the whole proposition — not more traffic, but the right traffic: people already deciding where to spend a night somewhere unusual.

Your property may be the destination

People come for the building itself — its history, its reputation, the night they will spend inside it.

Or where they stay between destinations

The investigation is elsewhere. Yours is the comfortable, well-run place they come back to at two in the morning.

Getting started

How it works

  1. Add your property

    Name it, place it, describe it, photograph it. The same details any listing needs.

  2. Set your rates and rules

    Nightly rate, cleaning fee, occupancy, quiet hours and what guests may and may not do.

  3. Connect payouts

    Stripe handles the identity checks. Guests cannot book until this is done, so it is worth doing early.

  4. Open your calendar

    Publish the nights you want to sell. Keep the rest for yourself.

Give paranormal travelers
a place to land.

Whether your property is part of the story or simply close to it, HauntStay helps travelers find the right place to stay.
