The wild thing is, some of these are places you can still visit today, to see if you can pick up on a little paranormal activity yourself. Just remember always to exercise caution when ghost hunting, as you do not want to trespass on private property.

Other than that, you can channel your inner Ghost Adventures and check out the following places, which are said to be the most haunted in Michigan, according to multiple sources:
