Because it\u2019s Halloween week, we have the perfect excuse to share our top three picks for Louisville\u2019s most haunted landmarks.<\/p>\n

\"Blog_102814\"<\/p>\n

If you ever visit us for product testing or to see our machines run in person, consider adding these landmarks \u2013 most open year-round to the public \u2013 to your itinerary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Waverly Hills Sanatorium
\n<\/strong>Louisville, Ky.
\n<\/strong>t<\/strong><\/a>herealwaverlyhills.com\u00a0<\/a>\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Waverly Hills served as a hospital to treat Tuberculosis (TB) patients from 1926 to 1961. 63,000 people died at the hospital, according to the current owners. After a cure for TB was discovered, the hospital closed and the building served as a mental institution until 1981.<\/p>\n

When someone died, staff pushed the body down a 500-ft. long \u201cbody chute,\u201d which led to a set of rail tracks where ambulances would haul away the deceased. This practice was thought to keep morale high since patients wouldn\u2019t see bodies picked up in front of the building. People have heard voices and seen full-body apparitions coming from the chute.<\/p>\n

During the worst years of the disease, one nurse committed suicide in Room 502. Some people claim to have seen a figure of a female nurse in white near the room. Others have heard a voice say, \u201cGet out!\u201d<\/p>\n

Another common observation \u2013 the smell of food in the kitchen still floats in the air, even though no meals have been served since the 1980s.<\/p>\n

Guided tours are offered year-round. But if you\u2019re in town during Halloween season, Waverly Hills\u2019 haunted house is open every Friday and Saturday night from September 26 to November 1.<\/em><\/p>\n

The Seelbach Hilton
\n<\/strong>Louisville, Ky.
\n<\/strong>Seelbachhilton.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Built in 1905, this extravagant European-style hotel has hosted famous guests, including Al Capone, nine U.S. presidents and F. Scott Fitzgerald, who used the hotel as a setting in The Great Gatsby<\/em>.<\/p>\n

In 1936, Patricia Wilson was found dead at the bottom of an elevator shaft in the hotel. Many believe she committed suicide after learning the news that her husband was killed in a car accident. Some guests have reported smelling her perfume and seeing her wandering around the hotel in a blue dress.<\/p>\n

A cook preparing brunch reported a woman in a long, blue chiffon dress with dark hair walk into an elevator and disappear. \u201cThe amazing thing was the doors were closed at the time,\u201d a lobby concierge told the Courier-Journal<\/em>.<\/p>\n

A few years later, the same concierge reported that a guest felt someone rubbing against her legs when she pulled the covers up and turned the lights out.<\/p>\n

While the Seelbach doesn\u2019t offer its own ghost tour, Mr. Ghost Walker offers year-round tours that include the hotel on its routes. Go to louisvilleghostwalks.com for more information. Or you could just book a room at the Seelbach and look for the Lady in Blue yourself. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Buffalo Trace Distillery
\n<\/strong>Frankfort, Ky. (45-minute drive from Lantech)
\n<\/strong>Buffalotracedistillery.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Buffalo Trace is the oldest continually operating bourbon distillery in the country. It even remained opening during Prohibition.<\/p>\n

The distillery\u2019s most famous ghost is Col. Albert Blanton, who served as the company\u2019s president until his death in 1959. Blanton lived in Stony Point Mansion, which is located on the distillery\u2019s grounds. Employees have reported seeing Blanton\u2019s figure in the mansion\u2019s sun room and claim to have heard his former housekeeper singing.<\/p>\n

Other unusual activity has happened at the distillery. Years ago, in one of the barrel warehouses, an unidentified voice told workers to leave the building immediately before a wall collapsed. Employees and tourists have also spotted orbs throughout the property.<\/p>\n

Buffalo Trace ghost tours are free every Thursday, Friday and Saturday night. The tours come with a free bourbon tasting.<\/em><\/p>\n

While these places may be scary, stretch wrapping doesn\u2019t have to frighten you. Follow our guidelines in Lantech\u2019s 10 Step Process to Reduce Damage Through More Effective Stretch Wrapping.<\/em><\/p>\n
