You might be joined by some uninvited guests while staying at this Ontario Airbnb. The Haunted House is a rental located in Penetanguishene, and, as the name suggests, it's inhabited by more than just humans.

The 1885 Victorian home has eight different apartments, two of which are available to rent on Airbnb. According to the host, the home has become a popular place for psychic mediums to stay due to the paranormal activities that occur inside.

Guests have reported a long list of strange happenings, from their bedcovers being ripped off to objects disappearing. Some have even felt as if they were tucked into bed, and others have said that their feet were touched.

Other eerie events include drawers opening, the sound of footsteps, fans turning on by themselves, and the sounds of children running and playing.

Many paranormal sightings have happened in apartment 301. Visitors have reported seeing a woman walking around who is "quite vocal." The host, Brenda, believes that this woman is Mary, one of the daughters of the man who originally inhabited the home.

Other sightings in this apartment include a small boy who hides in the closet. As for the "most frightening" occurrence — the main bedroom door can sometimes be found in the opposite position that it was left before bed (open or closed). The door handle can also rattle at times, as if someone is trying to get in, and you can even see it shaking.

Apartment 302 has some chilling stories of its own. Brenda recalls that during her first Christmas at the home, she was putting up garland when the sound of feet and a door banging caught her attention. No one was home, and the next time it happened it was even closer to her. After leaving and returning to the place, the sound occurred right beside her, and she has "never decorated in the night again."
