Ready to get spooked this fall season? Look no further. Heres a sneak peak into one of the many haunted places you can visit in Houston.
Did you know that La Carafe is thought to be the oldest bar in Houston? Built in 1847, La Carafe has been an iconic part of downtown for over a century and a half! It started out as the Kennedy Bakery, serving up fresh biscuits to Civil War soldiers. It was later used as a Pony Express station, and it became the present-day La Carafe Wine Bar in the 1950s.
Today, it’s a cozy spot to sip pinot grigio or chardonnay with friends, but its long and storied history also makes it a great place for some ghost hunting! With so many visitors over the years, who knows what stories are hidden in La Carafe’s walls. You’ll have to see for yourself. We’re willing to bet this is one of the most haunted places in Houston!
