Believe in ghosts? Here are the haunted places around Jacksonville where you might find them

Northeast Florida has witnessed centuries of history, and not all of it has been pleasant. Murders, suicides, betrayals, executions and other tragedies have left spiritual echoes behind that can give the creeps to people who encounter them today. Here are some of our favorite haunted places in the area.

King House, Mayport

The King House on Ocean Street in Mayport is known for its rich history. Built in 1800s, the building is on top of an old Spanish graveyard. For a while, the building was a boarding house for sailors. The stories shared by relatives of William King, who rebuilt the house in 1907 after a fire, include a jealous man killing his ex-lover with a pitchfork on the porch. Relatives said a chair on the porch would later rock even when no one was sitting in it.  — Diane Uhley, Florida Times-Union archive

Florida Theatre, downtown

The Florida Theatre in downtown Jacksonville opened in 1927. Since then, millions of people have been through its doors. And quite a few of those have reported some strange occurrences. When it was featured on a local haunts television show , the host said cameras caught movement in the balcony and the creaking of chairs. Some have reported that a former organist who used to work in the theatre haunts it. In 2020, the theater replaced all of its seats except for two in the balcony, where the ghost is said to reside.  — Jeff Davis, Florida Times-Union archive

Eppes House, Amelia Island

The Eppes House in Amelia Island is said to be haunted by the ghost of one of its former owners, Celeste Eppes. As the story goes, Thomas Jefferson Eppes killed Maj. F.C. Suhrer in 1884, saying he did it because his wife Celeste had told him about advances Suhrer made toward her. But according to the stories, Celeste Eppes lied, and later told those she haunted that she had to roam the earth as punishment. — Diane Uhley, Florida Times-Union archive

Those who’ve been inside report hearing voices, doors that open and close on their own and creaking sounds. — Clerk of the Court Photographic Archives

St. Augustine Lighthouse, St. Augustine Beach

The St. Augustine Lighthouse has been featured on a national television show for its haunted reputation. Guests have said they’ve seen “the man in blue” in the basement of the former lighthouse keeper’s duplex. The story goes that the man was a sailor who hanged himself while staying in the duplex. Others have talked about supernatural experiences they’ve had at the lighthouse. — Christina Abel, St. Augustine Record archive

Thirty Three Star, Jacksonville Beach

33 Star, on Third Street in Jacksonville Beach, is a rock 'n' roll boutique. But some say it’s also haunted, so much so, it was featured on the "Local Haunts" national television show. The store was built in the 1950s and was once the Ossi Grocery Store. 33 Star is right next to Ginger’s Place, a local watering hole, that has its own reported ghost-sighting reports. Some believe Ginger visits 33 Star . When the building was being renovated in 2011, the owner and crew said they’d clean an area, turn around and then find a dime where they’d just cleaned. Customers have also reported finding dimes out of nowhere. — Bob Mack, Florida Times-Union archive

Flagler College, St. Augustine

Flagler College, in the heart of St. Augustine, is on many local ghost tours. Some of the biggest believers throughout the years have been the students living in the building that was once the Ponce de Leon hotel. Some have said that Henry Flagler, who built the hotel, continues to haunt the rotunda. Though for many years the solarium at the top of the main hall was closed, students used to visit the area to tell ghost stories and read Ouija boards. — Daron Dean, St. Augustine Record archive

Florida House Inn, Fernandina Beach

The Florida House Inn , which opened in Fernandina Beach in 1857, is known for its famous guests, including Cuban revolutionary Jose Marti and U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant. But it’s also known for its ghost stories.

Join us  for some very “spirited” evenings!

Here in Jacksonville, we take our history very seriously and we recognize the legacy that the pioneers left for us.  We also recognize that some of our pioneers are still with us in the forms of spirits and ghosts. 

Hear more about these “restless” former residents on Historic Jacksonville’s “Haunted History” walking tours when costumed tour guides share both history and tales of pioneers whose spirits still dwell in many of our historic buildings.

These tours are not your typical ‘ghost tours’ with special effects.   They are history tours about real hauntings resulting from past events.  The stories—some scary, some benign—come from multiple sources, from people who have experienced these lingering spirits.  They are our attempt to recognize and honor these restless souls.

Two completely different 1-hour tours will be offered each night, and both tours include lots of haunted houses!

The Courthouse   Tour  highlights tales of brothels, epidemics and hangings.

The Britt Hill Tour features stories of murder, arson, saloons, and Oregon’s first Chinatown.

Tours will be offered the second Friday of each month from June through September with special October tours on the second Friday and Saturday.  See ticketing for start times!

Private tours can also be scheduled for a minimum of 10 and maximum of 12 people at a cost of $15 per person. Date and time must be mutually agreed upon and are not available on public tour nights.

All tours begin at the Jacksonville Visitors Center at the corner of N. Oregon and West C streets.  Tour group size is limited!  Cost is $10 per person.

Stanley cup final game 1: edmonton oilers at florida panthers best prop bet picks and predictions, share this article.

The Edmonton Oilers and Florida Panthers meet Saturday in Game 1 of their best-of-7 Stanley Cup Final. Puck drop from Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Fla., is scheduled for 8 p.m. ET (ABC/ESPN+). Below, we break down BetMGM Sportsbook’s Stanley Cup Final Game 1 prop bet odds and lines , and tab the 5 best Oilers vs. Panthers prop bets to make among SportsbookWire’s expert NHL picks and predictions .

The Oilers are in the Stanley Cup Final for the first time since 2006 when they were defeated by the Carolina Hurricanes. It’s a crowning moment for C Connor McDavid , who is experiencing his first tangible playoff success after being widely regarded as the league’s best player for several years. He has 5 goals, 26 assists and 31 points in 18 games this postseason.

The Panthers have a balanced attack with big bodies on defense. They’re led by LW Matthew Tkachuk , who is arguably the toughest 200-foot matchup in the game. He has been quiet of late, though, with just 1 goal in his last 11 games.

BetMGM has awarded most users with an NHL Stanley Cup Final 50% odds boost token. Look for this promo to make these prop bets even sweeter.

Game 1: Best Oilers at Panthers prop bet picks

Odds provided by BetMGM Sportsbook ; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated at 12:34 p.m. ET.

Zach Hyman OVER 3.5 Shots ( -110 )

Hyman has been a consistent offensive machine this postseason, leading the club with 14 goals in 18 games. He also has 4+ shots on goal in 12 of the 18. He gets credited with some cheap ones on deflections and rebounds in front of the net, which makes this one even more formidable.

Sam Bennett OVER 2.5 Shots ( +105 )

Bennett is a gritty, 2nd-line center that has paid dividends this postseason. He missed a few games earlier in the playoffs due to injury and has found his stride with goals in 3 straight games. As such, he has 4 and 5 SOG in the last 2 games. Look for him to continue to be aggressive.

Stream the NHL all season on ESPN+ , with your team’s out-of-market games, exclusive games, originals and more. Get ESPN+ now!

Sam Bennett OVER 0.5 Points ( +120 )

Since we like him to remain aggressive with the puck, that increases his potential points output. He has a point in 8 of 12 games played in these playoffs. If you’re giving up plus-money potential, I’m going to take it to the bank.

Vladimir Tarasenko OVER 1.5 Shots ( -140 )

Vladi scored the eventual game-winner in the last series against the New York Rangers. He’s seeking his 2nd Stanley Cup, and the team is leaning on his experience and wicked shot. He has 3, 2, 5 and 2 SOG in the last 4 games. He’s a near-lock to land 2 on net again.

Play our free daily Pick’em Challenge and win! Play now !

Sergei Bobrovsky UNDER 2.5 Goals Against ( -115 )

Bobrovsky had a 1.89 GAA and .921 SV% in the conference final. His .855 save percentage against high-danger shots on goal (106 saves, 124 shots), according to NHL EDGE, is the best among goalies to play at least 5 games in the playoffs. Florida is 2nd in the playoffs in limiting opponents to 24.5 shots on goal per game. Bob allowed 2 goals or fewer in 13 of 17 playoff games, including 5 of the 6 in the Eastern Conference Final. I expect jitters and a slower pace for the Oilers out of the chute.
