While vacationing in Vermont, I stayed at the Montpelier Inn Bed & Breakfast. They would keep the unoccupied rooms open to show potential visitors what the rooms looked like. After viewing the rooms the clerk and I went back downs stairs. I said, "this place is perfect but is missing one thing a ghost. She said,"Oh we have one." I said do you mind if I see the rooms where it's at." Te clerk said, "Well it in one of the two rooms in the front." So I climbed the stairs I noticed room number one was on the left so I thought that is a good place to start. As I started into the room being very observant and slow the door slammed in front of me and I thought I heard foot steps going down the hall. Needless to say that scared the **** outa me. So the next day I went back to the door and tried to see if there was anyway I could recreat the door slamming on me. I moved the door jam this way and that, tried jumping up and down near the door to see if my weight could cause it. Either that door stayed open no matter what I did or you couldn't keep it open (it wouldn't have been open as I climbed the stairs). So you can take it anyway you like.

The story is that a previous owner was an elderly lady who they say was a bit touched. She died in the house around 1920. After that her presence was noted by the smell of Lilacs.

Now a friend of mine swears that as his Mom lay dieing, he saw a figure in the wall at the top of her bed. Kind of a black on black thing, where you can sense movement. That the figure was being very patient and waiting for his Mom to let go.
