• 618 N Central Ave - Once a glamorous hotspot for celebrities and affluent travelers, the Westward Ho has witnessed Phoenix’s most triumphant and challenging times. Established in the 1920s, this historic landmark later became a refuge for the city’s most vulnerable, embedding it with decades of emotional and often poignant history.

Today, both visitors and residents report unusual happenings: phantom music echoing through vacant corridors, sudden chills, and sightings of mysterious figures, including a “Lady in Red” and even a one-legged ballerina said to glide through the building.

• A. E. England Building - The A.E. England Building, as it stands today, conceals a much darker history. Before becoming a power plant, the site reportedly hosted a brothel and casino, later evolving into an industrial site where hazardous conditions led to frequent injuries and hardships.

This complex history has left its imprint. Employees and visitors have reported shadowy figures, unexplained mechanical noises, and even elevators operating independently. Some claim to hear children playing where none are present.

• 202 N Central Ave - The Hotel San Carlos is widely considered one of the most haunted buildings in Phoenix, and possibly the entire nation. Opened in 1928, it became the site of a tragic incident involving a young woman named Leone Jensen, whose spirit is said to linger within the hotel.

Guests have reported everything from flickering lights and unexplained sounds to full-bodied apparitions. The most renowned is the “woman in white,” often seen wandering the halls or appearing unexpectedly in guest rooms.

• 231 N 3rd St - As the oldest Catholic church in Phoenix, St. Mary’s Basilica holds over a century of history and mystery. Early accounts describe eerie encounters near the church, including sightings of headless figures dressed in white appearing late at night.

Visitors have also reported shadowy forms, whispers, and the unsettling sensation of being watched from within the church grounds.
