Founded in 1750, Jamaica Inn was a notorious smugglers’ haunt on Bodmin Moor, a history still echoed in reports of heavy boots, disembodied voices, and doors slamming after hours. The most famous apparition is a phantom coach said to thunder past the inn on stormy nights, while staff and guests also report a shadowy male figure lingering near the old bar and stables. Sudden cold spots and the smell of tobacco are frequently noted during investigations, particularly in rooms tied to the inn’s smuggling past. Its documented criminal history and recurring modern reports have made Jamaica Inn one of Cornwall’s most enduring paranormal hotspots.
