The kennebunkport Inn
45 Main Street,
Kennebunkport , Maine
This 1799, three story, Victorian 22 room Inn was originally built as a private home for a Doctor, Phineas Cole and his family. This home was owned by several families until it was converted into an inn in the late 1920's, called "The Tavern." In 1940, Walter Day bought the place, and expanded the inn to 16 rooms and renamed it the Kennebunk Inn. In 1980, Arthur LeBlanc bought the Kennebunk Inn , and added 6 more rooms. After the Kennebunk Inn had added these 6 more rooms to the inn, the following ghostly occurrences began to take place. Goblets located behind the bar, have been known to move and actually fly across the room by themselves. Carefully laid silverware has been known to mess itself up and chairs seem to move by themselves. Who are the ghost? Some believe that the ghost is of Silas Perkins, who owned the building in the 18th century. Or perhaps the ghost is Cyrus, who was the quiet, conscientious night clerk, who worked at the inn for many years.
