Tampa’s Haunted History

Don’t let the palm trees and whimsical theme parks distract you; Tampa has a haunted history buried beneath the bikini-strewn beaches. Is the blinding Florida sun playing tricks on your vision, or did you just see something lurking in the shadows?

The Spanish explorer, Ponce De Leon, stumbled upon these sandy shores in 1513. Since then, the region has been home to an array of horrors. From mass atrocities during the Civil War to the conflicted embarkation of soldiers to Cuba during the Spanish-American war, Tampa has a dark history dripping with blood.

The city’s most beloved neighborhood, Ybor City, sprang up around a cigar factory in 1886. It has played host to a naughty lineup of criminals, villains, conspirators, and gangsters ever since.

As the bright sun sets over the coast, you can hear the restless souls of unfinished pasts begin to stir.

Our Top 3 Haunted Locations in Tampa

Old Tampa Theatre

In 1926, the fabulously gaudy Tampa Theatre opened its shiny doors, and locals stepped inside for a night of escapist fantasy for only 25 cents per head. It is a space artfully designed for delightful frights, with plush blood-red seats, carved busts whose eyes seem to follow you as you walk, and gargoyles perched in corners.

But be careful where you wander: A chain-smoking poltergeist named Foster “Fink” Finley died in the lighting booth years ago and is said to have never left.

Floridian Palace

Built in 1926, The Floridian Place Hotel is one of the only hotels in Tampa to make the Historical National Registry.

Once the peak of luxury for lavish tourists to gather over cocktails, the hotel’s business took a sharp decline in the 1980s, and the clientele shifted to migrant workers and forlorn travelers. Today, the horrors of this conflicting past haunt its halls.

Old Federal Courthouse (Le Meridien Hotel)

Le Meridien Hotel tries its best to cover up its dark past, yet ghosts still haunt its halls. Only in recent years was the old federal courthouse renovated into a luxury hotel, but its history wrought with false accusations, gangers on trial, and suspicious murders lives on.

Locals say that the ghost of Charlie Wall, a gangster brutally murdered after revealing too much on trial, haunts the steps of Le Meridien still.
