Liberty Hotel (former Charles Street Jail) hauntings

The Liberty Hotel occupies the restored Charles Street Jail, a granite structure completed in 1851 that served as a county jail until 1990 and was converted into a hotel in 2007. Local lore includes numerous guest and staff reports of unexplained noises, cold spots, and alleged apparitions tied to its jailhouse past; those reports are part of Boston ghost-tour itineraries. Architectural and historical records confirm the building's use and conversion, while claims of paranormal activity remain anecdotal and unproven.
