Did you know The Cavalier Hotel in Virginia Beach is haunted? 

It's the PERFECT time of year for a visit!  Why go to a "haunted house" tour with fake ghosts when you can visit the real thing?

Nicknamed the "Aristocrat of the Virginia Seashore" the Cavalier was the spot to see and be seen, so it's no wonder some guests are reluctant to depart. Ten U.S. Presidents have also stayed or spoken at the Cavalier, bringing with them the rumors, speculation and debate that guests, both living and dead, seem to feed on.
