This week, we’re heading to the First State—Delaware! Lauren begins with the tragic tale of Mary Elizabeth Dunning and her husband, John Preston Dunning, a story that proves some choices come with devastating consequences. Then, Kenzie takes us to the charming yet eerie Addy Sea Inn in Bethany Beach. This historic bed-and-breakfast is home to the usual creaks and ghostly whispers—but what truly sets it apart is a chilling TripAdvisor review from a guest who experienced its paranormal side firsthand. Join us as we uncover Delaware’s haunted past and the secrets it still keeps.
