7 Haunted Philly Restaurants & Bars

"Paranoia slips in any time you see a gloomy, gothic house. They’re super old, dark, and probably have many mirrors. Midtown Village’s McGillin's Olde Ale House has those same elements, and, thankfully, lots of liquor. Open since 1860, the Irish pub is full of antiques like framed family photos and neon signs, and once in a while, the lights flicker for no reason. (No, it’s not because of PECO.) There’s a chance that you’ll encounter an apparition, like Ma McGillin, an original owner, whose image has been captured by a paranormal group. If you see an actual poltergeist but don’t feel like making a quick exit, grab a plate of crispy buffalo wings, a few beers, and catch a game at one of our favorite sports bars in town. " - candis mclean
